NSW Treasurer Matt Kean has launched an extraordinary attack on the Liberal Party’s own membership, warning they are out of step with the voting public and risk being rejected at the state election for failing to preselect enough women.had fallen short in pre-selection
NSW Treasurer Matt Kean has warned the Liberal Party could be rejected by voters if it does not endorse more women.Kean said it was time to reassess the Liberal Party’s internal processes because the current arrangement – which relies on membership plebiscites to determine candidates – was not producing what the voting public wanted.
Currently, the leader of the Liberals can only sit in the lower house. However, Kean, who is the deputy of the NSW Liberals, said he would be lobbying to change that after Ward’s failed preselection.“I’ll be campaigning now and in the coming weeks to ensure that a ballot for the leadership or the deputy leadership of the Liberal Party is able to be contested by a member of the upper house,” he said.
The Treasurer also called for members of the Liberal state executive to re-open the pre-selection for the Northern Beaches seat of Pittwater to allow lawyer Claire Longley to nominate.
Rabe9 NSW LNP ARE THE NEXT TO FALL ON THEIR SWORD
Rabe9 Ah the man that can tell right from left , yes let’s listen to that D head! He is a political imposter a charlatan and a fraud!
Rabe9 Kean isn't reflecting the community. Unless the community are self-obsessed, know-nothing backroom dealers.
Rabe9 Matt Kean has no right to lecture anyone on women. And he is one of the main reasons that the Libs could do so bad. Why vote for a Lib party with his values when you can just get the real deal through the Greens and Labor?
Rabe9 He's not wrong
Rabe9 The people of NSW really want a female State treasurer and a female MP for Hornsby. Resign today Matt_KeanMP give your seat to Natalie Ward. Be the change you want to see! Do it! Be a male champion of change. Talk is cheap.
Rabe9 If Kean reflects the community the 'community' must be disloyal, overly-ambitious and self-indulgent...What an awful person he is...
Rabe9 I just want better government who will do what’s right.
Rabe9 Keane is representative of no one. The Liberals go backwards when they follow his policies. No one wants a socially left wing, economically right wing government.
Rabe9 He’s a brave politician, very rare.
Rabe9 The NSW government is out of step with the reality of limited, dwindling oil supplies Matt_KeanMP AlboMP OPEC crude peakoil already in Oct 2016
Rabe9 Members rarely if ever reflect the community, they’re rusted on supporters. This goes for all political parties. This is Matt Kean angry they’re not voting for his candidates. Nothing more.

The Liberals have lost the ‘values’ that underpin the PartyFormer Victorian Liberal Party president Michael Kroger says the Liberal Party is playing 'defensive' in every election, the question is what is the Liberal Party “strongly in favour of”. “I’m talking about cultural issues, not a bigger road here, a new hospital there, I mean these transactional policies which you have to have,” he told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “But they don’t tell you the core of what the political party believes in. “So, what are the values which underpin the Liberal Party – that’s what been lost.” Yep.
