Market analysis: surging support for Australia's "One Nation" party fuels populism.

Leader of the conservative "One Nation Party" in Australia, Senator Pauline Hanson, told reporters that if she were to come to power, she would seek to restrict certain forms of abortion. Hanson made these comments as polls showed that if an election were held now, her party would receive 28% of first preference votes, while the ruling Labor government's support is at 30%. The main opposition party, the Liberal-National Coalition, only has a support rate of 19% and may face elimination. The "One Nation Party" has risen to become a political force in just a few months, and is now being seen as a potential preferred opposition voice.
