Gina Rinehart gifted a Cirrus G7 private plane to One Nation leader Pauline Hanson and her donations plus allied contributions totalled more than $3 million to One Nation. Hanson unveiled the plane at a party event, called it "sexy," and displayed $2 million in novelty cheques while press reports put the aircraft's value between $1 million and $1.5 million. The high-profile gift and cash haul boost One Nation's campaign resources and spotlight the influence of Australia's richest person on a populist party with controversial policies ahead of upcoming elections.
