Large parts of this country have been turned upside down over the past two decades. Everyday Australians have been lectured that loving their own country is shameful, that their history is something to apologise for, that their industries have no future, and that their work and livelihoods count for less than someone else’s agenda.

That does not sit well here. Australians believe in a fair go. We are at our best when everyone stands on equal footing, not when elites pick winners and losers.

When the left, backed in far too often by the Liberal Party, starts elevating some groups above others, people feel pain. They feel it in their communities, in their jobs, and around their kitchen tables.

And right now, that frustration is not drifting quietly. It is moving, and it is moving straight toward One Nation.
