  • The One Nation Surge: How Pauline Hanson stunned the majors to become preferred PM

    A stunning new poll has revealed that One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has overtaken Anthony Albanese as Australia's preferred Prime Minister, signalling a massive shift in public sentiment away from the major parties.

    Jason Matthews on 4BC Mornings attributes this political shakeup to a "tone-deaf" federal government, heavily criticising Treasurer Jim Chalmers for his confusing rhetoric regarding housing affordability and controversial changes to Capital Gains Tax that are reportedly driving young entrepreneurs out of the country.
