A few weeks ago, Jess Wilson called Moira Deeming an “articulate and effective advocate for our party’s values”.
The Liberals were perfectly ok with Deeming’s bigotry when the damage was landing on vulnerable LGBT+ people.
But now Matt Guy is upset, action is needed apparently.
It's a fresh & easy $400+ plane trip, back & forward from Melbourne to Mildura for Jess Wilson.
Most Locals need to take slow 9hr coach, since Libs killed their train service, along with many others in a Kennett penny pinching exercise. #springst#auspol
Anybody watching the implosion of the Victorian Liberal Party need look no further than the kids from the YLs that are in charge. Jess Wilson James Paterson Evan Mulholland Brad Rowswell Gideon Rozner Max “the unemployable” Williams David Kitchen Phil Pease….a bunch of immature children
@Commoncents21@DaleH1234 Clearly doesn’t have the leadership skills to stop in-house drama spilling out to the public. A social media “influenzer” doesn’t cut it in the real world. Too green to be leader but Liberals haven’t any other viable option.
Vic Lib Jess Wilson likes to talk ‘tough’ about crime. She even knifed former leader Brad Battin cause she thought she’d be better at it.
But when a crime is allegedly committed in her own party, she cancels all press conferences and does a runner.
Leader? Yeah, righto.
This statement by David Farley is telling. The parliament does not recognise which party is more popular, it allows for staffers based on bums on seat in the parliament. Pauline just grifted $5m. Perhaps she should employ more people for her “popular” party. That’s what others do
@Mythoug05655057@aaronsmith Not too sure about that. Liberals are on the nose nation wide because they haven’t anything go offer the public.
Labor does the work Liberals do not.
Channel 7 reports Jess Wilson cancelled all media today to avoid questions over the Deeming/Guy situation.
If Jess vanishes whenever her party room's at war, she'll be leading the Opposition entirely from home, and she doesn't support working from home.
Normally, an accusation this serious would see the accused stand aside while police investigate.
If they won’t do so voluntarily, it falls to Jess Wilson to act and remove them.
That should happen today, but will it?
A journalist published, then deleted, a statement from the Liberal MP alleging assault by another Liberal MP.
I won’t repeat it for obvious legal reasons.
Wilson’s party room now has legal action over Pesutto’s loan and assault allegations between MPs.
How can it function?
If the information I’ve heard is true, there’s a rather magnificent case of poetic justice possibly unfolding.
There is simply not enough popcorn in the world.
@eatatjoe2@aaronsmith Any of these on your list?
Sam Groth flipping the bird at her by resigning, after saying he wouldn’t.
A political stunt with a convicted criminal.
Dumping Moira for a pedo sympathiser.
