Cory Bernardi repays more than $40,000 for flying on Gina Rinehart’s plane during SA election campaign
One Nation South Australian leader Cory Bernardi, elected to the state's Legislative Council in March 2026, has repaid more than $40,000 to Gina Rinehart's company S Kidman & Co for private flights used during the 2026 South Australian state election campaign, to comply with the state's strict political donation laws banning corporate donations and capping individual donations at $5,000. One Nation federal leader Pauline Hanson, who accompanied Bernardi on the flights, has previously updated her federal register of interests multiple times to disclose previously undeclared travel gifted by Rinehart's companies.
