Andrew Hastie - The Tide is Turning on Sussan Ley

Andrew Hastie says there is ‘no challenge’ to Sussan Ley after stepping down from Liberal frontbench

Former shadow home affairs minister claims he quit because he was not given a leadership role in developing policy on immigration.

Andrew Hastie has ruled out an imminent challenge to Sussan Ley’s leadership of the Liberal party after dramatically quitting the shadow cabinet.

But the former solider has vowed to keep publicly prosecuting his Australia-first agenda from the backbench, maintaining pressure on Ley as she attempts to unite her fractured party.

I don't know much about Andrew Hastie so I'm learning. The media calls him hard right but he's not.

He's a veteran who has had a couple of deployments to Afghanistan, 2 deployments to the ME in an intelligence role and was also based in PNG.

The writing is on the wall for Sussan Ley but with talent such as Hastie, Price, Mundine etc pulling away from the Libs I'm wondering if they should just start a completely NEW party away from the same ole same ole Lib/Lab biparty.

We're going to need it when Albo is shuffled off to Buffalo because all that come after him are progressives and we'll need stronger pollies on the right to fight them off and send them running.

Sussan Ley is in big trouble.

Jacinta Price, Andrew Hastie, Ben Small, Henry Price, Tony Pasin, Alex Antic and Garth Hamilton all either out or speaking out against her.

She was a shocking token choice to begin with. At least the mutiny is now and not further down the line.
