FED:Hanson outlines plans for PM amid poll surge over Labor

Pauline Hanson says she's ready to be prime minister for "those who want to be Australians", as a new poll shows her party eclipsing Labor to become the most popular party in the country.

The proportion of people planning to put One Nation first on their ballot paper has risen four points to 31 per cent, according to a Redbridge Group/Accent Research poll, published on Monday by The Australian Financial Review.

Labor's primary vote is at 28 per cent, down three points since the poll firm's last survey a month ago and the government's budget that was announced on May 12.

The coalition dropped two points to 20 per cent.

Asked whether she can properly represent all voters given her brand of populist right-wing politics which has been branded racist by some, Senator Hanson said she was focused on a unified national identity.
