Pauline Hanson, leader of Australia's One Nation party, has hit back at claims that money raised through her "Fire the Liar" fundraising campaign was used to pay for a stay at a five-star London hotel. The senator accused the media of misrepresenting her use of donor funds, framing the reports as part of a broader pattern of unfair coverage against her and her party.

Hanson defended her spending as legitimate and consistent with her political work, rejecting suggestions of impropriety. The controversy centres on scrutiny of how donations to the campaign, tied to her long-running dispute with a public figure, were allocated, though specific financial details of the claims were not fully outlined.
