昨天的新聞，標題：
Keith Wolahan, the ex-commando who unseated Liberal Party stalwart Kevin Andrews, insists he's 'not a moderate'
Kevin Andrews 是 Liberal Party（自由黨）老牌前排議員，新血替代，我想這是大勢所趨吧！？
Ex-commando 簡單翻譯就是前特種部隊隊員！這字其實我也不懂，網上的解釋，蠻好玩的：
2a: a military unit trained and organized as shock troops especially for hit-and-run raids into enemy territory
b: a member of such a unit
go commando
slang : to wear no underwear
Unseated 簡單翻譯就是，讓 Kevin Andrews 沒座位了。什麼座位，當然就是議員的座位，而且還是前排呢！！！
Stalwart 這字，我也不懂。查了網上字典：
adjective
strongly and stoutly built; sturdy and robust.
strong and brave; valiant: a stalwart knight.
firm, steadfast, or uncompromising: a stalwart supporter of the U.N.
noun
a physically stalwart person.
a steadfast or uncompromising partisan: They counted on the party stalwarts for support in the off-year campaigns.
