Pauline Hanson, the leader of the One Nation party, has declared her ambition to become Prime Minister of Australia, asserting her capability to assemble an effective cabinet. In an interview with Sky News, she expressed confidence in her party's rising support, highlighted by a recent RedBridge/Accent Research poll indicating that One Nation could win up to 59 seats in parliament if elections were held now. Hanson stated, 'I believe that I have the ability to do it,' while acknowledging the current government's shortcomings. She is also considering a shift to the lower house in the next election but has not confirmed which seat she would contest. Further, Hanson reiterated her controversial stance on immigration, advocating for a ban on the burqa and suggesting restrictions on individuals from countries with radical Islamist ideologies. Additionally, she defended her ties to Gina Rinehart, a mining magnate who recently donated a private plane to her, stating that it allows her to reach regional areas without costing taxpayers.
