Overview
- Investigative reporting found Sewell posting seven masked videos with antisemitic and homophobic content to a new Instagram account that began in May while appearing at a Hurstbridge property.
- Visual details in the videos match a multi‑million‑dollar Hurstbridge home that is listed as the registered address for a White Australia association document.
- Corporate records show the property is owned through a company with director Martin Featherstone and shareholder Christina Macgregor, and Featherstone confirmed he charged Sewell rent to live there.
- Meta says it is probing whether the posts breached its hateful conduct rules and a Home Affairs spokesperson said federal agencies are monitoring for potential breaches of Australia’s strengthened hate‑speech laws.
- Sewell has launched a High Court challenge to overturn the government listing of the National Socialist Network so he can seek formal registration of a White Australia party, a move that could test enforcement of the new laws and platform moderation.
