The NSW Liberals’ Pittwater branches have demanded the party’s powerful state council censure Treasurer Matt Kean for claiming members are out of touch after he was scathing of the preselection of a male “junior staffer” over the state’s most senior female Liberal.after former Mike Baird staffer Matt Cross won preselection for Davidson, the Liberals’ safest seat in NSW, over Roads Minister Natalie Ward.
After Cross’ win, Kean said: “When you’ve got someone as talented, as able, and as big a contributor as Natalie Ward, who’s not able to win preselection over a former Liberal staffer, something’s wrong with our systems and processes.” Its president Stu Cameron has also written to Kean, warning: “At present, the loudest voice speaking against the Liberal Party, its values and its membership is not the ALP, not the teals, and not the Greens. It is yours.”Cameron said he “ensured that our succession planning and preselection process would identify and welcome female candidates for preselection. The fact that two out of three nominations were women supports this notion.

AlexSmithSMH Does the Liberal Party realise that the key thing which is makes it unelectable across the entire country is its Branch Members? Liberal Party Branch Members + The Nationals have saved this country from ever again being governed by the LNP.

Victorian election results show 'existential crisis' for Liberal Party, MP saysThe Liberal Party is facing a crisis and must undergo generational change, one of the few MPs to gain ground in the election says, as his party prepares to elect a new leader in the wake of a widening electoral defeat. They lost 37% to 35%. Well, if you’re seeking change, which must be doubtful, why would Pescutto be putting his hand up. Just more of the same right wing shit. Bad use of Insta, FB and Twitter… propaganda doesn’t circulate in mainstream press.

If you can't do that John, then the time to walk out is now. Let's hope he is a true conservative 🤞 Looks like a shifty car salesman

Opposition leader John Pesutto to take a ‘consultative approach’ to ‘renew’ Liberal partySky News Victoria Political Reporter Simon Love says John Pesutto’s approach to being Opposition leader will be to adopt a “consultative approach”, particularly with his MPs, wanting to “renew” the Liberal party. “He says that he doesn’t want to focus too much on personalities within the government,” Mr Love said. “But the government’s overall performance as a whole. “John Pesutto said that newcomers to the party… they might be offered senior positions in the shadow cabinets, so clearly a sign there that John Pesutto wants to renew the Liberal party.” Pathetic. Have the guts to tell people what you stand for instead of acting like complete wimps.
