In short:

One Nation's Melbourne candidate Matthew Collins has resigned and apologised after offensive comments posted on his social media accounts came to light.

The comments reportedly ranged from highly sexualised remarks to anti-Muslim rhetoric.
What's next?

The party has said it is too early to say who will replace Mr Collins as the candidate for Melbourne ahead of the November 28 state election.
