West Australian Premier Mark McGowan has unwittingly reignited a feud with shadow defence minister Andrew Hastie after a microphone picked up his disparaging comments made about Hastie’s views on China.

In a video, sent from the premier's office, he can be heard saying Mr Hastie "swallowed some sort of Cold War pill back when he was born".

Andrew Hastie told Chris O'keefe Australian MPs should be supporting each other when overseas.
