'Rational' alternative to One Nation: New centrist party formed

Flinders University Associate Lecturer Josh Sunman says he is unsure if there is an “appetite” for a centrist political party in Australia. “Zali Stegall and Allegra Spender pitched this as a centrist, or what they call a rational alternative to One Nation,” Mr Sunman told Sky News Australia. “We are a long way off from seeing this party ever being anywhere near forming government or supporting government,” he said. “This is a party that sees itself more as a kind of power broker.”
