Hastie Declares War on One Nation

Liberal frontbencher Andrew Hastie is locked in a fiery political showdown with One Nation, calling their campaign against him a declaration of war. After Pauline Hanson’s party signaled it will field a strong challenger in his WA seat of Canning, Hastie — a former SAS soldier and Ben Roberts-Smith trial witness — refused to back down, vowing he’d rather be carried out in a box than yield. The spat has escalated, forcing security upgrades at his home and office, as Hastie frames it as a battle for his seat and principles, invoking Sun Tzu and comparing One Nation to a rudderless ship. Despite internal Liberal Party tensions and One Nation’s recent polling surge, Hastie is rallying supporters, declaring this the biggest fight since the party’s founding — and he’s determined to lead Australia forward by defeating Labor.
