RSL Australia is calling on One Nation leader Pauline Hanson to take down a cartoon video that describes Liberal and SAS veteran Andrew Hastie as a traitor. PerthNow and 7News Australia both report that RSL Australia characterises the content as “tasteless.”
Both outlets frame the dispute as part of a broader public backlash over inflammatory political messaging. RSL Australia says the video targets a serving or former defence figure and a politician, and it has publicly urged Hanson to remove it. While the reports agree on the RSL response and the overall issue—RSL objecting to the cartoon’s depiction of a politician and defence veteran as a traitor—coverage differs in wording and emphasis, with one outlet focusing on the growing “outrage” and the other highlighting the direct call for the video to be taken down.
The reports also indicate the RSL’s involvement is central to the story, with the controversy centred on the content of the video rather than any specific legal or procedural action.
