Western Australian Liberal MP Andrew Hastie has found himself at the center of a political storm following the circulation of a 39-page dossier by Sue Roberts-Smith, mother of Ben Roberts-Smith, who is facing serious war crime allegations. The dossier, sent to 26 Liberal MPs, criticizes Hastie's integrity and claims he has harmed the Liberal Party. It highlights Hastie's military background and his actions during his political career, including his testimony against Roberts-Smith in a defamation case. Hastie, a former captain in the Special Air Service, had previously supported inquiries into war crimes and has been a source for journalists investigating Roberts-Smith. Despite the controversy, Hastie has been appointed as the shadow minister for industry and sovereign capability. The situation escalated after Roberts-Smith was charged with multiple counts of murder, raising questions about the implications for Hastie's political future and the Liberal Party's leadership dynamics. The political landscape shifted further when former opposition leader Sussan Ley was replaced by Angus Taylor amid ongoing tensions within the party.
