Andrew Hastie MP - Australia's Shadow Minister for Home Affairs
Update: 2025-08-22
Description
My guest today is the Hon Andrew Hastie MP, federal member for Canning and Shadow Minister for Home Affairs.
Andrew is a former SAS solider and an extremely articulate and thoughtful politician on the Australian centre-right. He has long be considered to be a contender for the leadership the Liberal Party of Australia and as a potential future Prime Minister.
Today we discuss:
- Whether there has been an overemphasis on foreign conflicts compared to the risk of domestic turmoil at home
- Why mainstream political parties in Australia and across the West have failed to address mass immigration concerns
- How his foreign policy views have developed since he first enlisted to join the Australian Defence Forces after September 11
- Why there has not yet been a fundamental reassessment of trade policy in Australia like in the United States?
- What explains the increasing radicalisation of the youth in western democracies?
- Why Australia could once lay claim to being arguably the most successful nation in the world and what has caused that to be undone
- What roles he would suggest to young people who might be interested in a rewarding career in the Australian military in future.
