Where is One Nation’s money coming from?
Aug 11, 2026 •
As One Nation’s political clout rises, so too does its bank balance, courtesy of the very elites Pauline Hanson often rails against.
Now an investigation by the Brisbane Times and SMH has detailed some of the places One Nation’s cash is coming from: from exclusive parties hosted at Gina Rinehart’s mansion, to movies, to merch.
But perhaps even more pertinent are the contributions hidden from public view.
Today, SMH Investigative Reporter Patrick Begley on the sources of One Nation’s wealth.
