One Nation Tops Australia Poll on Primary Vote as Cost-of-Living Anger Hits Major Parties

Summary
Pauline Hanson’s One Nation has overtaken both Labor and the Coalition on primary vote, marking one of the biggest shocks in Australian polling in decades.
Cost-of-living pressure drove the surge, with voters reacting against higher interest rates and a federal budget many see as failing to ease household strain.
Labor’s support fell sharply in the poll, while the Coalition also trailed One Nation, underscoring broad dissatisfaction with Australia’s two major parties.
The result points to a wider anti-establishment shift in Australian politics as economic stress reshapes voter loyalties.
