Core policy of One Nation is to restore Power to the People
Electricity was a public owned utility, an essential service vital to our basic standard of living and in a harsh climate our very survival. That this very basic and essential service was allowed to be un-lawfully sold off to private enterprise is by definition a treasonous act. Australians were deceived when government committed to selling off essential services (without referendum), stating it would lead to greater competition and lower prices. Now welfare agencies report an epidemic of Australians having their power threatened to be cut because they cannot afford the cost of basic household electricity use. In
2007 there were 18,000 households just in NSW alone disconnected from their electricity supply and more than 22,000 disconnected from gas.
Since 2007 until today in 2012, there has been a dramatic increase in hardship and desolation, with
over 110,000 Australians homeless and over 1 Million Australians who can now not afford electricity. One Nation warns the worst is yet to come. Back in 2007, welfare agency research of those seeking assistance with their energy bills from charity centers shows that single parents with children (44 %), were predominantly the ones seeking assistance. Children were also found to reside in 60 % of all households included in the study.It also revealed that while many relied on government benefits, most households weren't on unemployment benefits and were not overly high users of energy. The vast majority were single mothers, pensioners, the disabled and those that care for them. Most had turned to charity struggling to pay an energy bill of $300 or less. So long as the cost of electricity remains out of the reach of the vulnerable there will continue to be deaths in the winter and summer months from those suffering from pneumonia and heat stroke. This will mainly consist of the elderly, infirm and infants. In the meantime it will remain warm in winter and cool in summer in the halls of parliament house. It is a core policy and a mandate of One Nation to restore base load power generation back into a publicly owned utility and following its original charter of providing plentiful and easily affordable electricity.

One Nation policy is to return credibility to the AEC
One Nation has long voiced concern over the blatant abundance of electoral fraud and the AEC’s apparent lack of capacity to put it to an end. To the contrary, changes implemented by the AEC under the authority of both Labor/Green and Liberal/National governments have enabled electoral misconduct by removing and no longer upholding a fail-safe system to prevent fraud and enable prosecution of those guilty of committing it. This has lead to the potential of government corruption, throws our election results into question and turns our democratic vote into a farce. Last Federal elections there were 30,000 cases of multiple voting. From this there have only been 3 cautions, and to date there has been zero prosecutions. It sounds like a grave concern one might imagine that the Governor General her self should be addressing, or at the very least showing some interest.
There have been numerous examples of electoral fraud coming to light courtesy of a few brave souls in the media. -Those who vote at as many polling booths as possible in their electorate and the abuse and compromise in the security of postal votes. The Dead still making it to the polling booth to cast their vote on election-day. Family pets such as cats and dogs, even budgies and gold fish have made their way onto the electoral role and voted. So much so that it has without doubt altered the legitimate outcome of the result for electorates and senate.
There are many ways in which the AEC may address this; 1) the re-application of a serial number on the ballet paper. 2) Replace the pencil with biro. 3) Re-introduce designated polling booths or have every booth linked electronically to strike off a voter from the register to prevent further voting. 4) Restrict the use of postal votes. 5) It is essential that the voter provide proof of identity before being marked off and allowed to vote. This advice, of which One Nation fully endorses, was kindly offered by England’s Electoral Commissioner; who busies himself prosecuting those guilty of electoral fraud. This advice is now also many years old. Ask yourself; what has Labor, Liberal/National and Green parties done up until this po
int in time to enact the above and return credibility to both our elections and the AEC? The integrity of our elections is a One Nation policy and priority.

Celebrate Australia Day as One Nation
One Nation’s Australia Day wish is to start Australia on the path to returning our country to its former glory days. We would assist this with a plan to enforce quarantine and anti-dumping laws and insist on an examination and review of current tariff regulations and their consequences, especially in relation to orange juice and other primary industry produce.
We also insist on a logical and transparent evaluation of water usage and prices to the public and particularly those charged to farmers, where we seek a reduction in cost of half that currently charged. Indeed, Primary Producers are faced with ever increasing operational costs that endanger their continued viability. One Nation intends to haul back the ever and rapidly escalating cost of electricity to the consumer. Here too we would examine the potential for a further cost reduction to primary production and industry.
The essence of our party is fiercely sovereign preservation. What we offer is neither antiquated nor fantasy. They are instead tried and proven formula that has been used repetitively through history successfully. Of which its success was the primary reason for its dismantling here in Australia. This is also exactly and nothing less than what the original Country Party would be offering you before they changed their name to the National Party and sold their soul to the incredulous “level playing field” that is “Free Trade”.

One Nation demands a halt to chemical contaminated Brazilian Orange Juice
Brazil is now the sixth richest country in the world, but some of their agricultural controls are still of a Third World standard. As reported in the media, that the U.S. have “suspended all imports of foreign orange juice and began stringent testing”… I call on both the Labor and Liberal Parties to advise what has been done by Australian officials and when it took effect. If action, such as that taken by North America has not been initiated already, then it should start immediately. Further, you are requested to name which juices sold in Australia are in danger of putting peoples’ health at risk and withdraw them from sale.
Food manufacturers have no obligation to label juices with a specific country of origin. The Herald has previously revealed Woolworths Home Brand orange juice, which is labelled; ''packed in Australia from imported and local ingredients'', contains 90 percent Brazilian orange juice concentrate. Coles has also confirmed it uses Brazilian orange juice concentrate in its brands.”
What is Important? Some people seem very despondent because they feel that our politicians have got us into an almighty mess and now they do not seem to know how to get us back out of it. Do you even care that for the past two months at least, and right now, there has been contaminated juice risking the health of Australian citizens? Where is the quarantine and testing of produce imported into our nation? Where is the public recall of this product? Why has it not been removed already from supermarket shelves? Do you really not care that for decades now doubtful and cheap juice has been killing orange orchards across Australia? There are many reasons why we should have

One Nation could return country to glory days
Do you remember Jack
McEwen and the Country Party; now known as the National Party? He and his
government made farming and industry prosperous in Australia, gave us amongst
the highest living standards of any developed country and made us the envy of
the world. Isn't it a pity that still so many Australians believe that the
major parties are representative of their best interests.
Jack McEwen achieved this for Australians primarily by the raising and lowering of Tariffs and subsidies according to requirements as they were deemed necessary. This gave Australian farmers, mining and industry protection and profitability, where they could not only survive, but prosper. This allowed for secure employment, better conditions for employees and high quality products.
But, unless Australians are prepared to support a political party such as One Nation, then you had pretty well forget about any return to such sound and successful practices, as just as the Labor/Green government, the coalition have devoted themselves to the U.N. and WTO, we will still be surrendered. One Nation would support the Liberal/National Coalition repeal the Labor/Green Carbon Tax and will oppose carbon trading. We would also support the return to the Howard Governments successful formula for putting a stop to the boat arrivals and would also strongly suggest that substantial financial aid currently given to Indonesia be withdrawn for every boat that makes its way here from there.
One Nation would however Not support the Liberal/National coalition in the resigning of any Treaty that is of continuing detriment to Australia and its common wealth. We will push for the re-establishment of regulation, common law rights, including water entitlements, tariffs and subsidies, and nurture the return of essential industry necessary for infrastructure and strategic importance. Would view rewarding incentives for innovation in technology, R&D improvements, etc, that are more efficient and less polluting instead of such punitive and punishing legislation that is the Carbon Tax. One Nation intends to see to the re-establishment of a Commonwealth Bank and the return of our power utilities to their original charter of supplying plentiful and affordable electricity.
