PoliticsCoalition to back One Nation plan barring Australians with terrorist links from returning

Australia’s Coalition will support a migration bill from Pauline Hanson’s One Nation. The proposal would prevent Australian citizens linked to overseas terrorist groups from returning to the country. Opposition leader Angus Taylor and Nationals leader Matt Canavan have both indicated that they back the measure before its Senate introduction. Their position gives One Nation’s national security prescriptions significantly greater political weight, despite earlier promises to oppose Hanson’s rightwing movement amid declining support for the Coalition parties.
