Story summary

At the Conservative Political Action Conference in Brisbane, Pauline Hanson, leader of One Nation, attacked Opposition Leader Angus Taylor for his past support of climate policies and creation of the eSafety Commissioner. Despite her criticism, Hanson offered to set aside personal grievances with the Liberal Party to form a government after the next election if it means removing the Labor Party led by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. Meanwhile, Taylor struggled to match Hanson’s charisma, receiving significantly less applause than she did when he addressed the conference on Saturday. Hanson's speech focused on past mistakes of the Coalition and promised to establish a royal commission into net zero targets.
