Pauline Hanson has told the Coalition her One Nation party is ‘not the enemy’ and suggested she would join them to form a government.

Hanson has claimed her party’s win at the Farrer by-election, which saw it gain its first voter-backed lower-house seat, is the writing on the wall for the Coalition.

However, the One Nation leader said she wouldn’t leave Angus Taylor’s Liberals and Matt Canavan’s Nationals in the cold if her party won more seats at the next federal election.

Instead, she would be in favour of teaming up with the Coalition in order to take down Labor.

However, One Nation would want to take on a leading role of a three-party coalition if it won more seats than the other parties.

‘If they get the numbers and they require our numbers to give them government, then I will give them supply and confidence,’ Senator Hanson told The Australian.

‘I don’t want a ministerial position because that means they will be able to shut me down, dictate to me, and I have to pass bad legislation, support them on it. I’m not going to do that.

‘But I also want to know: if we get more members than what they do, and we require their numbers (to form government), will they give me the same deal? We don’t know what the future holds. The people are angry. The people have had enough.’

The Farrer election result was a blow to Coalition leader Angus Taylor (above) as its been a stronghold since 1949

Hanson said no plans had been made for the party leaders to sit down and discuss a union as the next federal election isn’t until 2028.

The Farrer election result on Saturday was a blow to Taylor as the seat had held by the Coalition since it was created in 1949 and was occupied by his predecessor, Sussan Ley, since 2001.

Deputy Liberal leader Jane Hume said any plans for a future coalition with One Nation were a ‘massive hypothetical’.

Nationals leader Canavan said his party had no interest in teaming up with One Nation and was adamant no more Nationals MPs would follow Barnaby Joyce and defect to Hanson’s party.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said it was unlikely the Coalition could form a majority government without help from One Nation.

But he didn’t believe Hanson’s right-wing party stood much chance at gaining new seats in metropolitan areas.

‘What is very clear now is that the chances of the Liberal Party and National Party being a part of a government just by themselves don’t look pretty, to say the least,’ Albanese told 4CA Cairns radio.

‘The fact they’re talking openly about effectively a three-party government down the track – I think people know how unstable a Liberal, National, One Nation government would be.’
