Australia's leading progressive campaigner has opened a new front against One Nation, appealing to voters not to reward Pauline Hanson's party with public funding.
An analysis from Simon Holmes a Court shows the populist party would be paid more than $200 million by taxpayers over the next five years, should current polling come to pass.
The review takes in state and federal elections from early 2026 to 2031, looking at the financial entitlements that would be fairly owed to the party under electoral law.
Already this year, it has locked in $7.2 million after a bumper result in the South Australia election, where it won 23 per cent of the vote and seven seats, and $140,000 in the federal Farrer by-election.
