Media Release: One Nation to cut tobacco tax to smash organised crime Australia’s tobacco excise policy has failed and is now underwriting organised crime. One Nation will cut tobacco excise by 75 per cent, pause indexation for three years and pair the cut with tougher action against organised crime. One Nation leader Senator Pauline Hanson said Australians were sick of criminal gangs terrorising their communities and getting rich while the Albanese government pretends their policy is still working. “People are sick of the firebombing, shootings, extortion and killings. They are sick of watching tobacco shops burn, while organised crime takes control of the market. “Victoria Police says there have been 193 tobacco arsons and six homicides directly attributed to the trade. Innocent victims have been killed by arsonists who attacked the wrong home. This is not a victimless crime. “Labor’s policy is failing. ABS estimates show illicit sources supplied 80 per cent of nicotine consumed in 2025, while total consumption rose almost 40 per cent between 2017 and 2025. “Legal tobacco is being replaced by black-market cigarettes. Excise in a packet of 20 is now about $30.60 and is scheduled to rise again in September. “Excise revenue is in free-fall, dropping from $12.6 billion in 2022–23 to an estimated $4.1 billion in 2025–26 and $3.6 billion this financial year. Labor has not only lost the revenue, it has lost control of the black market in illegal tobacco. Every budget prediction they have made on excise has been wrong, wrong, wrong. “One Nation will cut excise by 75 per cent and pause indexation for three years. Passed through in full, a $46.50 legal pack would fall to about $21 or $22. “Senate inquiry evidence put illicit packs at roughly $12 to $25. Our plan makes legal tobacco competitive and attacks the gangs’ extraordinary profit margin. “The cut will be matched with stronger border enforcement, faster shop closures, tougher penalties for traffickers and attack organisers, and aggressive seizure of criminal assets and unexplained wealth. “We do not blame Australians under cost-of-living pressure for stretching their budgets. We blame a government that kept doubling down while organised crime built a multibillion-dollar market. “This is not about encouraging smoking. It is about restoring the rule of law and breaking the black market. “Labor handed this market to organised crime. One Nation will take it back.”

Media Release: One Nation calls for immediate stop on migration from ‘do not travel’ countries One Nation is calling on the Federal Labor Government to immediately stop migration from destinations the Australian Government's own Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade rates as ‘do not travel’ because of terrorism, kidnapping, armed conflict, violent crime, civil unrest, state repression or institutional collapse. Senator Pauline Hanson said: “We can no longer ignore the real security risks presented to Australians from regions hostile to our interests and way of life. “Australia’s terrorism threat level remains ‘probable’, meaning ASIO assesses there is a greater than 50 per cent chance of an onshore attack or planned attack within the next 12 months. “If the government warns Australians not to go to a country because of extreme security and terrorism risks, the government should not continue accepting ordinary migration from that country on a business-as-usual basis.” Destinations currently rated as “do not travel” include Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Haiti, Iran, Iraq, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. “I’m not interested in importing the world’s problems at the expense of Australia’s security,” Senator Hanson said. “Australians have no faith that Labor is doing full security checks on new arrivals given the welcome mat has already been rolled out for returning ISIS brides and foreign terrorist fighters. “The government cannot issue its highest security warning for an entire country about terrorism, kidnapping, arbitrary detention, armed conflict and collapsed authority, then pretend those same conditions are irrelevant to migration. “Where the entire country is marked ‘do not travel’, the government should pause ordinary new migration. Where large parts are marked ‘do not travel’, every application should face far more rigorous security scrutiny. “The Government should either urgently act on the warnings issued by its own experts or explain why those warnings apparently matter for Australian travellers but not for migration security. “These changes should apply to every new offshore visa from the listed ‘do not travel’ countries, including refugee and humanitarian visas. There should be no refugee loophole. Any future refugee or humanitarian visa from a ‘do not travel’ country should be considered only if the Government and relevant security agencies can give Australians an absolute assurance that the person’s identity has been established and that they present no security risk to Australians. “The security of Australians must be the number one consideration of government. Stopping migration from ‘do not travel’ countries and applying greater security checks to countries with warnings will help keep Australians safe.”

I’m hearing via the grapevine that employers of larger companies are being instructed to take on Indians in preference to kiwis. Luxon is a traitor.
