Church director tells parliamentary inquiry reporting by Nine newspapers a ‘complete lie’
The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church has denied it secretly paid far-right influencers to stage stunts targeting Anthony Albanese and other politicians during an appearance at a parliamentary inquiry into the 2025 election.
The church also refuted claims it had coordinated hundreds of volunteers to support Liberal candidates, including at polling booths across the country.
