One Nation Demands Immigrants Speak English, Except Their Policies
KEY POINTS
- â˘On July 27, Guardian Australia's Adeshola Ore interviewed Barnaby Joyce about One Nation's tough stance on non-English-speaking immigrants.
- â˘One Nation demands immigrants must speak English to settle, stating under no circumstances should non-speakers be allowed.
- â˘The AusAlert emergency warning test coincided with the immigration discussion, adding irony to the national communication efforts.
In a thrilling symphony of mixed messages on July 27, 2026, Guardian Australia's Adeshola Ore sat down with Barnaby Joyce to unpack One Nation's 'authentic' approach to immigrationâwhere immigrants who donât speak English should be banished 'under no circumstances' from Australia. That's right, One Nation wants fluency as compulsory as Vegemite at a BBQ but forgot to specify if theyâll provide free Rosetta Stone or just hand out dictionaries at the border. Meanwhile, Aussies eagerly awaited the AusAlert emergency warning test, because nothing says national safety like a state-sanctioned chirp reminding you your refugee rules also need translation. Stay tuned for more politicking from the land down under where contradictions are as common as kangaroos.

(1 of 3)One Nationâs immigration mantra: Speak English or get lost, except if youâre politicians with confusing policies. Flip-flopping louder than an Aussie croc snapping for its afternoon snack.
Apparently One Nation wants immigrants to speak English 'under no circumstances' which is either a warning or the most Australian threat ever.
Itâs like One Nation said, 'No English, no entry' but forgot to tell Parliament they only speak gibberish themselves.
