Despite talk of a potential leadership spill in the wake of the premier's Nazi uniform revelation, some commentators say replacing him 11 weeks from an election could only make matters worse for the Liberal party.

The party was held at his parent's house in 2003 and was 'uniform' themed. Two years later, Mr Perrottet became president of the NSW Young Liberals.

Labor has largely kept quiet in the wake of the scandal, but deputy leader Prue Carr today said it was up to the public to decide whether the premier can be forgiven. Despite the question mark hanging over Mr Perrottet's leadership, some say it would be too politically risky to replace him. "I can't see really at this late stage how it would greatly benefit the party, even though it is behind in the two-party preferred ."

"Either that [incident] has not been revealed in the vetting process or he did admit it and it was still kept quiet by the party," Dr Rolfe said. During campaigning, NSW Treasurer Matt Kean called for her to be disendorsed, saying she was "not fit for office".

Auf wiedersehen, Perrottet.

The Media needs to cut the crap, stop emphasising the fact and move on, give the bloke a fair go, FFS everyone makes a mistake in life

Train wreck guys. A car wreck is often little worse than a crash. Metaphors are used to help illustrate.

Sounds good! Let’s get it done! He is such a slimly, dishonest pri-k!

MY GOODNESS...for just a Nazi uniform for a fun party...? REALLY you can just kick out a premier?

who did Dom upset so badly and why who are we forbidden to criticize? those you cannot speak against are those who truly rule you... look a bit deeper into what is actually happening here. ..

Rabbi admits everything Hitler said about the Js in MK was true Dom is on the right side of history

If Australian society can forgive ISIS brides they can forgive Perrottet.

Sounds good

Perrottet should claim he dressed up as Bandera. TheirABC and the rest of the MSM would go moist.

This won't end up the way you hope it does, everyone knows it came from the gambling lobby and they are more hated than politicians, this move will backfire and he will gain backing.

Do you remember when Sky Hooks did the mock play depicting Emperor Nero, George Clooney’s news anchor Father and a couple of other mysterious characters?

Victor Dominello was dumped from the gambling portfolio after ClubsNSW conducted a brutal and very successful campaign against him. Does history repeat

Clubs NSW have a new “Car” lined up already I’m sure

Either way I can't look away

LOL, this is just the ABC trying to start a rumour of a leadership spill. Not even the far left nutters will fall for that. 😛 I'm just kidding. Of course, they will fall for it. 😂😂😂

It is actually a 'hybrid collision'

He did nothing wrong

Calm down far leftie peoples... It's not like he drove his car at high speed and hit a kid like Dan Andrews and his wife did, only to flee the scene and get away without doing a breatho.

Don't boot him, send him to Ukraine, plum job, and Nazi are welcomed there... even Australian government supporting no-Nazi in Ukraine

Hitler didn't wear Nazi uniforms, and he was a Nazi.

As long as the car is a German Mercedes from the thirties Perrottet will be happy.

And keeping him says what about their ethics?

Why?

NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet wore Nazi costume to 21st birthdayThe revelation about the 2003 party is likely to hurt the Coalition’s chances at a general election in March. 20 years ago. A fancy dress party. I'll vote for him regardless of his politics because of this false guilt/shame. IT IS NOT IMPORTANT TODAY! WHERE IS THE GUILT FOR COMMUNIST SYMPATHIZERS (Fabian Society) Biggest murder machine in human history! Supporting Nazis is not exactly what you want the leader of New South Wales to be representing This is outright silly, that was 20 years ago . Do we pick our politicians based on a lifetime of political correctness.
