  • I’m standing with One Nation to help restore common sense and give everyday Australians a real voice again.

    Colin Seabrook is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation candidate for Corangamite, Victoria. With decades of life experience, business leadership and a firm belief in Australia's conservative foundations, Colin brings a strong and principled voice to the national conversation. As a former Liberal voter who became disillusioned with the party’s direction, Colin has found a new political home in One Nation—drawn by its commitment to Australian sovereignty, fair immigration, and traditional values.

    A lifelong small business owner, Colin has run successful mechanical and equipment leasing operations in Melton West for over 30 years. He’s no stranger to standing up to bureaucracy either—having taken the City of Melton to VCAT and IBAC for what he believed was a breach of building regulations, proving his determination to hold government bodies accountable.

    Colin is passionate about reversing the damage inflicted by the Labor Party’s divisive and impractical policies. He strongly supports banning puberty blockers in schools, cracking down on immigration rorts, ending foreign ownership of Australian homes, and reintroducing accountability measures in government contracting. He’s also committed to law and order, calling for consecutive sentencing for serious violent offenders and major fraud cases.

    His political involvement spans decades, having previously volunteered in campaigns across the country. Now, he’s stepping up to be the candidate himself, driven by a belief that One Nation is the last real defence against the radical left agenda.

    Michael Halley is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation candidate for Swan in Western Australia. A proud family man with deep roots in farming and industry, Michael is driven by a commitment to fairness, self-reliance and restoring the Australian way of life. He brings a practical, no-nonsense approach to politics, shaped by years of hands-on experience as a machine operator and a strong belief in giving everyday Australians a fair go.

  • We need real solutions, not spin. I’ll fight for the people of Hughes—to lower costs, protect our freedoms, and bring back Australian jobs.

    Deborah Swinbourn is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation candidate for the federal seat of Hughes. A sixth-generation Australian, Deborah has lived in the electorate for over 23 years. With more than 30 years of experience in the Information Technology sector, she brings a wealth of practical knowledge and real-world problem-solving to the political arena.

    Deborah is the youngest of nine children from a working-class background and a proud mother. She understands the challenges facing families today particularly the rising cost of living, housing affordability and energy prices. Having previously run as an Independent in the 2024 NSW State Election for Holsworthy, she’s already a recognised voice in the community and is passionate about delivering real outcomes for Australians.

    Deborah believes Australia must pause mass migration until housing, hospitals and essential services can cope. She’s seen firsthand how unchecked immigration has contributed to housing shortages, strained infrastructure and placed increasing pressure on local communities.

    She is also a strong supporter of energy reform. Deborah backs affordable, reliable coal and gas power and opposes net-zero targets that she says are driving up power prices and making life harder for families and small businesses.

    It’s unacceptable that people in a country as resource-rich as Australia are struggling to afford electricity, food and housing. We need change and we need it now.

    Deborah also believes in rebuilding Australian manufacturing, securing supply chains and prioritising Australian workers for Australian jobs. She supports policies that will create apprenticeships and long-term employment opportunities, particularly in local industries.

    A firm believer in individual freedoms, Deborah opposes government overreach and mandates that infringe on personal choice. She stands proudly for national sovereignty, family values and practical, common-sense governance.

With over 30 years of experience in the hospitality industry, including 26 years as a qualified chef, Sean has risen through the ranks to become a senior chef and understands firsthand the daily pressures faced by hardworking Australians.

    Sean has lived and worked in Melbourne long enough to witness both the highs and the lows of the city.

This lived experience has ignited his passion to fight for fairness, affordability and security in Australia.

He strongly supports pension reform to allow older Australians to work more without penalty, a simplified flat tax for multiple job holders and laws that reward, not penalise, productivity. He also stands against excessive government spending and corruption, pushing for accountability and transparency at all levels of leadership.

    A firm believer in One Nation’s platform since his school years, Sean is focused on restoring national pride, fixing immigration policy, strengthening Australian industry and ensuring everyone, no matter their background, is treated equally under the Australian flag.

  • I want to help communities, I want Australia to be great again, I want to be a voice and I want to be heard—for our children.

    Hannah Marriner is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation candidate for the seat of Fremantle in Western Australia. A mother of six and a passionate community advocate, Hannah speaks out for everyday Australians who feel their voices are being ignored by a system more focused on political correctness than practical solutions.

    Born in Tasmania and raised in Kalgoorlie, Hannah has seen the vast differences in how Australians experience life, from the cities to the regions and how government failure impacts health, housing, education and law and order. She has firsthand experience of the housing crisis, the collapse of public healthcare and the rising cost of living. Her message is simple: Australia must take care of its own before taking on more.

    Hannah volunteers with the Western Australia Wildlife Hospital and supports elderly residents through community gardening programs. She believes in rolling up her sleeves and getting involved in real issues, not just talking about them.

    Her public activism began when she challenged the safety of her children's school following the enrolment of a radicalised student who later committed a violent act. Despite pushback from the school, Hannah stood her ground and spoke to the media, determined to protect children and raise awareness about government negligence.

    Hannah believes mass immigration has pushed Australia beyond its limits and is contributing to rising homelessness, overwhelmed hospitals and unaffordable housing. She’s also concerned about growing social division and double standards in law enforcement.

    With a strong, unapologetic voice, Hannah is ready to fight for working Australians, restore law and order and bring back common sense to Canberra.

  • I’m tired of politicians who won’t stand before our flag or hold a hose for their community. It’s time to rebuild Australia for Australians.

    Zyion Attiig is Pauline Hanson’s One Nation candidate for McPherson, bringing with him over three decades of community involvement and private sector experience on the Gold Coast.

From youth coaching to rebuilding trails post-cyclone, he’s hands-on, grounded and invested in McPherson. His advocacy against the closure of national parks and overreach in digital regulation has made him a vocal opponent of the WEF’s Agenda 2030, the Digital ID rollout and central bank digital currencies.

    Zyion believes it's time to push back against gender ideology in schools, skyrocketing energy bills and replacement migration policies that lock everyday Australians out of the housing market. A former Taoist monk and martial artist, he lives by the principle of defending those who cannot defend themselves and is not afraid to speak up for the silent majority.

    He’s running with One Nation because he believes Pauline Hanson is the only leader brave enough to say what needs to be said and do what must be done.
