Dutton rules out One Nation deal

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has ruled out forming a minority government with One Nation, despite the Coalition striking a preference arrangement with Senator Pauline Hanson. The Opposition has preferenced One Nation at No.2 on its how-to-vote cards in several crucial marginal seats, following a surge in support in the far-right minor party’s primary vote. But Dutton said Hanson wouldn’t be part of any future coalition government after Saturday’s federal election, if it results in a hung parliament.
