One Nation will face its next big test at the Victorian election in November. Four Corners spoke to six would-be candidates who described the preselection process as chaotic. Former Liberal National MP Aidan McLindon said he was approached to be part of the leadership team in Victoria. Each would-be candidate was charged $150 to apply, and another $5,500 if successful. He said candidates were not told about the additional $5,500 fee until the end of their interview. “What we're seeing here is a bit of an insidious money grab,” McLindon told Four Corners.
