Jordan Hirst was elected to the South Australian parliament. He joined One Nation party.

Hirst worked for equal marriage for years. He supported gay and lesbian rights. He was also a Sex Party candidate.

This is a surprising step. One Nation is not known for LGBTQ+ rights. The party has different priorities.

Hirst wins his seat when equal marriage is already law. This happened in Australia in 2017.

His new party's view on activism is unclear. One Nation focuses on immigration and economy.
