Overview
- One Nation says its "Fire the Liar" appeal raised more than $1.6 million in about a day and later reported higher totals on its website.
- Multiple polls have shown One Nation’s primary support rising above Labor in recent surveys, prompting the party to name specific Labor-held electorates as targets.
- Pauline Hanson’s sold-out Perth events attracted large organised protests and renewed scrutiny of the party’s rhetoric and tactics.
- The Liberal leadership publicly rejected a proposal to negotiate seat-sharing with One Nation after MP Tony Pasin suggested the idea, with Angus Taylor saying there is no plan to carve up seats.
- Labor has challenged the fundraising totals and pushed questions about wealthy donors and transparency while warning that One Nation’s policies would harm workers and living standards.
