I'd like to speak directly to anyone who's considering supporting One Nation: don't do it. I know you're feeling frustrated or anxious, with cost-of-living challenges and concerns about the global fuel supply, but One Nation isn't the answer.

One Nation is like a bad Tinder date: they've got a photoshopped profile pic and they promise you the world, but the reality is very different. Just look at their voting record. They voted against strengthening workers' rights. They voted against making homes more affordable. They voted against funding more public schools, early childhood education and health care. And, just like any bad Tinder date, they'll stiff you with the bill at the end of the night. One Nation will leave us all paying a heavy price, and the coalition are no better. They are commitment phobes. They can't commit to each other, can't commit to their leaders and can't commit to their own policies.

The only party you should have a long-term relationship with is the Labor Party. We're there in the good times, with an increase in funding for public schools and TAFE, and we're there during the challenging times, with tax cuts. We're there in sickness and in health, delivering cheaper medicines, Medicare urgent care clinics and more bulk-billing. The Labor government is committed to its relationship with all Australians.
