Far right political advertiser, Advance, has started the month with an ad blitz across five fake community and fake news social media pages.
In the first week of April, its Facebook pages took out the top three spots in spending for non-political parties.

Advance pages spent nearly $200,000 over the week.
| Advance Australia | $ 89,886.00 |
| Election News | $ 47,261.00 |
| Her Truth | $ 10,122.00 |
| Greens Truth | $ 10,080.00 |
| Albanese is Weak, Woke and Sending us Broke | $ 41,250.00 |
| TOTAL | $198,599.00 |
Ads on the relatively smaller spending ‘Immigration Crisis’ claim “Labor’s mass immigration is destroying Australia” and is putting “Australian values under attack”. The ads showing a tent on the street and a car that appears to be lived in, were shown to up to 78,000 people.
‘Election News’, which looks remarkably similar to Climate 200’s ‘Independent News’ is mainly running anti-Greens party content – similar to that already being shown on its pages Greens Truth and Her Truth.
While ads from the main Advance page are anti-Labor.
In the same week on Meta, Climate 200 spent $93,824, The Labor Party’s main page spent $76,540, and Liberal Party’s main page spent $62,385.
While Advance has no formal affiliation with the Liberal party, its biggest donor last year was the McCormack Foundation, a Liberal party investment group.
