The federal Labor Party have shown they lack confidence in their own performance over the last 4 years by starting a scare campaign against the One Nation Party who only have one seat in the House of Representatives and 4 seats in the Senate.
The Labor Party have 94 seats in the 150-seat House of Representatives, which is a huge majority, so to be spending time and effort running a frivolous scare campaign against One Nation raises many more questions about the Labor Party then it does about One Nation.
While One Nation is rising in federal and state polls it has no chance of winning the 2028 federal election which is supported by the results in the South Australian election last Saturday.
In South Australia, where they received 22.2% of the total first preference votes, One Nation will end up with between 1 and 4 seats in the Lower house and up to 3 seats in the Upper House when final votes are counted in a week or so.
If that was replicated at the 2028 federal election Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party will end up with 5 to 20 seats in the Lower House and around 10 to 15 in the Senate which is nowhere near enough to form government.
So, what One Nation’s policies are doesn’t matter because they won’t be legislated.
Which brings us to federal Labor Party MP Andrew Leigh, the Member for Fenner in the ACT, who posted the below video on “X” (formerly Twitter) on Monday the 23rd of March 2026 attacking One Nation and their policies.
Interestingly, Andrew Leigh starts off by saying “if your a young man” which is clearly their target for the video. But what about women and old men?

One relevant comment under Andrew Leigh’s above video on “X” is below:
On Wednesday the 25th of March 2026 Andrew Leigh was talking about fuel in parliament then at the end he spoke about One Nation “fear mongering”, as per the below video, which is exactly what Andrew Leigh did in the first video above. The hypocrisy is staggering.

One relevant comment under Andrew Leigh’s above video on “X” is below:
The Labor Party would be worried about One Nation breaking up their cosy Uniparty / duopoly with the Liberal / National Party coalition which would be another reason for the scare campaign against One Nation.
If the Labor Party had done a good job over the last 4 years they would be talking about all the great things they had done as the reason you should support and vote Labor again. But they are not.
In 4 years Labor has managed to acquire a long list of skeletons in the closet they don’t want to talk about. Everything from the fake National Anti-Corruption Commission, Robodebt cover-up, the $368 billion AUKUS fraud scam, failed gambling advertising reform, cost of living, housing crisis and the NDIS fraud etc.
The scare campaign against One Nation would be a test run for Labor to run scare campaigns against other minor parties and independents.
But if running scare campaigns is all the Labor Party has, and it looks like that is all they have, then they are in a lot of trouble, and I suspect from Labor’s own polling they know it.
I vote independent and I’m no fan of One Nation, but Labor are in government and they should be totally focused on solving problems for the public, not wasting time running scare campaigns trying to hide their failings.
Given Labor are running scare campaigns 2 years out from the 2028 federal election suggests they have little confidence in their own ability and performance to achieve much in the next 2 years to boost their re-election chances.
Admin: Seventeen weeks ago, I launched a campaign with a simple goal: find 200 new monthly supporters so I can keep doing this work as a fully independent journalist, running this website and the YouTube channel without corporate backing or paywalls.
Since then, 153 wonderful people have stepped up and become monthly supporters. That’s huge, thank you!
We’re now at 47 to go.
If you’ve been enjoying the work and aren’t yet supporting monthly, I’d be incredibly grateful if you’d consider joining them. Here’s the situation:
Like most independent journalists, I’m basically a one-person small business. Right now, a lot of us are feeling the squeeze, just like many small businesses and households are. To stay afloat and keep bringing you the reporting I do, I need roughly 200 more people chipping in whatever they can comfortably afford each month.
Anything from $3 to $100 (or whatever works for your budget) makes a real difference. There’s no lock-in, you can cancel or adjust anytime.
If that feels doable for you right now, you can see all the options on the donations page by clicking here.
Your support, whether it’s a monthly donation, a one-time donation, or just sharing the work, is what keeps independent voices like this one alive.

a few years ago, Labor ran a very effective scare campaign against The Greens which is still having effect today. With the help of msn of course. Just another reason I loathe Labor. As you say, they have no confidence in their own ability and are fiercely unwilling to do anything about it, as they continue down the fossil fuel/Zionist/genocide/pollie protection/destruction of NDIS and Aged Care road. They couldn’t be worse for Australia if they tried.
The Greens are still the real threat, much more than the Liba, Nats or One Nation as they have better, more progressive policies than the pusillanimous Labor.
Maybe Labor couldn’t be worse BUT lnpand on would be a disaster for Australian people if they ever gained power in Government
Carrying on with this crap, they are the authors of their own demise.
Labor is a shadow of its former self.
Much as I concede and agree we are but a shadow of our former selves (I’m a card carrying member of NSW Labor), the very thought of this embarrassing, red-headed redneck, ignorant, bigoted, racist harradin is complete anathema to me, much as the Libs and, especially, the Nats are and have been for most of my life. Latter, in particular, are the modern day versions and in some cases, descendants of the land stealing, environmental destroying vandals and murderous, genocidal thugs who stole this country I love so much from the First People.
Been doing my bit, my best, to convince Labor pollies and Comrades I know to return to the days when we understood the meaning of the term “Maintain the common touch” and accept the fact, we’ve, somehow, managed and decided to recruit to our ranks, far too many silver tongued, university educated opportunists who are far better suited to the ranks of the despicable Libs.!
Obviously Andrew Leigh is an idiot!
It seems the influence of the professional class has taken over what once was a was the party of the working class.
The same as al most all, anyone who had good intentions quickly becomes a career politician and at that moment they begin to forget they’re a civil servant an start to believe they’re Australian royalty.
Indeed. They are the (temporary) employees of the citizens. [Note I said “citizens”, not customers, clients, voters, corporations, etc, and I mean future ones too.]
People are tired of propaganda, Labor is slowly working that out.
Albo’s initial reaction was to blame wreckers and hoarders for the Fuel Shortage, now the tone is more conciliatory.
Hanson has been saying the same fairly sensible things for 30 years, Labor needs to do similar and act on it, otherwise the Liberals will do a reset and leave them in the dust.
