澳大利亚绿党参议员乔顿·斯蒂尔-约翰因涉嫌2017年至2025年间对女性的不当行为面临调查1。新任党领导大卫·肖布里奇宣布启动独立调查1，但32岁的西澳大利亚参议员否认指控并拒绝离职1。斯蒂尔-约翰声称"没有直接投诉人"出面指控他1，并将此指控称为党内派系的政治游戏1。
肖布里奇承认自己在这一问题上的权力有限，表示"他一个人无权强制参议员休假"1。要使斯蒂尔-约翰离职，党团需要获得超过七名成员的三分之二多数秘密投票支持才能将其开除1。作为残障权益发言人，斯蒂尔-约翰在残障社区拥有广泛支持1，这为党内的处理增加了复杂性。这一事件对绿党新领导的政治能力和党内团结构成严峻考验。
Australian Greens senator Jordon Steele-John faces an uncertain political future following allegations of inappropriate conduct toward women spanning from 2017 to 2025.1 Party leader David Shoebridge has announced an independent investigation into the matter, triggered by a three-page letter reported by the Nine newspaper.1 The 32-year-old Western Australian senator, who serves as the party's spokesperson on disability rights and maintains popularity within the disability community, has denied the allegations and refused to step down.1
The disciplinary process presents significant challenges for Shoebridge's new leadership.1 He acknowledged that he lacks unilateral authority to force the senator to take leave, stating that "he alone has no power to force a senator to take leave."1 Instead, removal would require a secret ballot among the parliamentary group, with a two-thirds majority of more than seven members needed to expel Steele-John.1 The senator has characterized the situation as a factional political maneuver within the party, claiming there are "no direct complainants" who have formally stepped forward to lodge accusations.1 A Senate budget estimates hearing is scheduled for Monday.1
