Inside the NSW Liberal Party’s messy power struggle, a conservative Christian faction called the Reformers is under fire for allegedly stacking party branches and funneling shady donations — with ties to powerful figures, including former premier’s brothers. Former lobbyist Robert Assaf, once on a mission to stop gay marriage and even trained to be a priest, admits he spent his days fighting party factions like a medieval warlord — and diverted his Catholic Schools job to political battles. Meanwhile, ex-school boss Dallas McInerney claims current Liberal leader Angus Taylor agreed to pay the Reformers — a claim Taylor denies, despite incriminating texts. As Australia’s corruption watchdog digs deeper, this tangled web of religion, politics, and money is turning the NSW Liberal Party upside down.
