A Labor Minister has issued a stark warning to Australians, stating that if One Nation's proposed policies were to become law, thousands of people would lose their jobs and wages would plummet. The minister's comments come in the wake of a highly contentious speech by One Nation leader Pauline Hanson at the National Press Club, where she made claims about the spread of "transgender ideology" and was met with widespread condemnation from advocacy groups.
