South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas has revealed Labor’s internal polling found support for One Nation surged in the wake of the Bondi Beach terror attack that killed 15 people.

Speaking at the Committee for the Economic Development of Australia (CEDA) State of the Nation conference, Malinauskas said that Labor polling in November 2025 found little support for the conservative-leaning party in South Australia.
