Multiple Australian outlets report that One Nation is accused of running a smear campaign against Andrew Hastie, an aspiring Liberal leader. The reporting describes allegations that One Nation has orchestrated or influenced negative material aimed at undermining Hastie’s leadership prospects. The articles present the claim as coming from opponents or critics of One Nation, but they do not establish independently, in the provided summaries, the specific content of the alleged smear or the evidence relied on to support the accusation. The outlets characterise the matter as a political dispute within Liberal leadership contests, with One Nation’s actions being questioned publicly. Across sources, the core point is the same: Hastie faces a reputational challenge linked to alleged coordinated attacks attributed to One Nation. The coverage, as summarised here, does not include details of any official investigation, charges, or a direct response from One Nation or Hastie. The reports therefore focus on the accusation itself and the claim that it reflects an organised effort to damage Hastie’s standing.
