Rebecca Lloyd, One Nation’s candidate for the Queensland federal seat of Brisbane, has been disendorsed by the party just days after it was revealed the Australian Electoral Commission was investigating a Facebook page linked to her.

On Friday, Lloyd’s candidate page on the One Nation website, and her associated One Nation Facebook page were removed by the party. She posted an “urgent SOS” video on the Fair Business Australia Facebook page, claiming her profiles had been removed by One Nation after a dispute over her response to news reports on the AEC probe.
