Faceless One Nation
Polls that suggest One Nation could secure dozens of seats in the House of Representatives are particularly puzzling when you consider that none of their lower house candidates are known by the public.

When people have a shared project within walking distance it gives agency, connection and community as well as useful products. We have become too dependent on others doing things for us.”
