Victorian Opposition Leader John Pesutto has asked the state Liberal Party to cover the expenses of a potential defamation case against him with an indemnity insurance plan.

The move comes after British women’s rights activist, Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull, issued Mr. Pesutto’s senior team—MPs David Southwick, upper house leader Georgie Crozier, and Matt Bach—with a defamation notice this week.
