Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is distancing himself from a decision to award a medal from King Charles to former special forces soldier Ben Roberts-Smith.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has distanced his government from the awarding of a special honour from King Charles to former special forces soldier Ben Roberts-Smith .A Federal Court judge orders the war veteran to pay a security to cover Nine Entertainment's court costs ahead of appeal against landmark defamation loss.
That ruling came after a lengthy trial in which Mr Roberts-Smith sued three newspapers – the Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and the Canberra Times – and two journalists, over stories reporting allegations he committed war crimes while deployed in Afghanistan while serving.Mr Roberts-Smith, who is appealing that verdict, maintains his innocence and has not been criminally charged.
