Statement from Senator Sean Bell One Nation Secretary

More than 500 party members attending One Nation’s annual general meeting Tuesday paused for a minute’s silence to honour the victims of the Bondi attack.

It was a solemn moment of reflection as the party faithful gathered to acknowledge what has been an incredible 2025 for One Nation and forge a path ahead to yet more success in 2026.

Members supported an important change to One Nation’s constitution as the party moves to more closely engage a rapidly growing number of supporters and a membership which has almost quadrupled since the 3 May election. This change reinforces One Nation’s status a grassroots political movement by expanding voting rights and enabling a stronger voice for members at future party conferences.

An AGM is a necessary administrative process for any registered political party, and One Nation completed this process professionally and transparently. The party’s financial statements were formally presented, passed by members, and independently prepared by an external chartered accountant.

Pauline Hanson’s One Nation is a member-driven party. Yesterday’s AGM demonstrated that clearly, with strong attendance, orderly process, and meaningful reform supported from the ground up.
