Original: ‘Cash grab’: One Nation demands up to $630,000 from Victorian election candidates

Pauline Hanson's One Nation is requiring candidates standing in Victoria's state election to pay fees of up to $630,000, prompting criticism that the party is running a 'cash grab'. The demand, reported by The Guardian, has raised questions about how minor parties finance their campaigns and what candidates get in return for such large payments.

Why now: The unusually large fees demanded of candidates ahead of the Victorian election are being criticised as exploitative.
