Pauline Hanson’s 2028 budget reply takes aim at Labor’s big-government agenda, pledging to scrap net zero, cut taxes, slash bureaucracy, and restore equal rights for all Australians.

One Nation will end culture-destroying Cultural Marxism.

That is the promise put forth by Pauline Hanson’s 2028 election pitch in a fiercely worded budget reply delivered in the Senate on Thursday.

Hanson rejected the “political culture that relies evermore heavily on centralised bureaucracy, dependency on the state and short-term intervention.”

The One Nation leader said her party would thus remedy the “Labor way.”

In other words, One Nation has committed to throwing out the way of rancid, self-congratulating, socialist Globalism. Finally ridding Canberra of the murderous Communist Manifesto’s rotting corpse.

One Nation, One Culture

For instance, Hanson declared an end to race division, stating,

“We will abolish divisive cultural departments and race-based programs that divide Australians by skin colour or ancestry.”

“Every Australian will be treated as equal under one flag and one culture. Help will be given based on genuine need, not race.”

“No more special privileges—equal rights for all, and special rights for none.”

“There will be,” Hanson continued, “no more taxpayer-funded Welcome to Country rituals.”

A Military Built to Fight, Not to Virtue Signal

Determined to end the wokeification of the military, the One Nation leader said,

“Our Defence Force must focus on operational readiness, capability and deterrence, not morale-sapping identity politics.”

Put simply, the ADF shouldn’t be operating like the ABC.

Under One Nation, merit will make a comeback. Operational readiness will replace placating self-defeating ideologies and virtue signalling diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) hiring practices.

Happy Australia Day!!!!!!

Today is a chance to celebrate Aussie humour, pride, love of country and mateship.

We’re not perfect, however the sooner we end the woke culture that has infected much of western societies – the sooner we return to a united, prosperous nation.

“One Nation will restore pride in wearing the uniform and give them the latest equipment to carry out their duties,” Hanson explained.

“We won’t sell off our historic sites of symbolic significance to cover irresponsible spending.”

Energy, Economy and the Housing Crisis

Addressing Treasurer Jim Chalmer’s trashy budget, Hanson’s overall assessment was,

“We don’t need Labor to protect Australians; we need to protect Australians from Labor.”

“Real intergenerational equity,” the One Nation leader argued, “means giving young Australians the same opportunities their parents had—the chance to own a home, raise a family, start a business and get ahead through hard work.”

“Young people are not struggling because older generations succeeded,” she said.

“They are falling behind because governments have chosen subsidies and wealth redistribution over allowing free enterprise to flourish.”

As unpacked by George Christensen in a Nation First article published on The Daily Declaration yesterday, Hanson also plans to dump the net-zero nanny state.

“We will ditch net zero, exit the Paris Agreement and axe the climate change department, saving $30 billion in the process,” declared Hanson.

“We will back coal and gas and support bringing nuclear power to bring down prices, restore reliability and guarantee national energy security.“

Of the many highlights, One Nation will also cut GST to zero “on building materials for homes up to a value of $1 million for the next five years.”

Packed into the GST reform is a brilliant plan to “exempt insurance from the GST.”

States would also be encouraged to remove stamp duty from insurance because, Hanson determined, “affordable insurance ultimately reduces burdens on taxpayers.”

Immigration, Resources and Draining the Swamp

Adding to her comments about mass immigration, Hanson said,

“Rapid population growth without matching supply is a recipe for declining living standards.”

“This is not about blaming migrants,” she clarified, “It’s about recognising limits.”

“A strong nation leverages its natural advantages. It does not demonise them.”

“One Nation will,” Hanson stated, “swiftly move to get rid of impediments in an increasingly competitive global environment and restore our status as a nation that rolls out the red carpet in resources rather than roll it up.”

“Australia does not need more career politicians serving vested interests. One Nation believes the government is there to serve you.”

“This budget only goes to prove yet again that this government believes you are there to serve it.”

Hanson’s budget reply is the reply we needed.

Drain the swamp, DOGE the top-heavy bureaucracy, more defence, less dependency and “dig, baby dig!”
