Two of the party’s NSW candidates took to the stage in Dee Why to spruik more fossil fuels, and nuclear.
NSW state election candidates for Pauline Hanson’s One Nation party have promised voters a push to abandon the state’s ban on nuclear energy while offering solutions to the Coalition’s “energy disaster”, which one candidate claimed would force residents to use “cow dung” to heat their homes.

One Nation’s candidate for the seat of Campbelltown in Sydney’s south-west, Adam Zahra, told the room that he was there to “ask questions” about energy policy.
