South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas has stepped up his criticism of Pauline Hanson ahead of Saturday’s state election, with the focus on whether One Nation can turn a rising tide of support from voters disgruntled with both major parties into seats in parliament.
Malinauskas challenged One Nation’s claim to represent battlers, painting the One Nation leader as a “fly-in, fly-out leader” who relied on billionaire Gina Rinehart’s private jet, and warned that a protest vote for One Nation could jeopardise the economic momentum he had built up.
