Victorian Liberal Party doing what it does best, ripping itself apart as the far-right crazies battle the far-right zealots.

Guess we should thank the various critters who branch stacked the party into electoral oblivion.

Pesutto says Deeming’s return to Liberal fold a matter ‘for party room’

Pesutto was also asked about the upcoming vote on Moira Deeming’s return to the Liberal party room, which will take place on Friday.

On Monday night, Liberal MPs Chris Crewther, Renee Heath, Joe McCracken, Richard Riordan and Bill Tilley revealed they had signed a petition to hold a special party room meeting to reinstate Deeming.

Deeming was expelled from the party in 2023 after she attended a rally that was gatecrashed by neo-Nazis.

A federal court judge last week found Pesutto defamed Deeming by falsely implying in comments he made after the rally that she knowingly associated and sympathised with neo-Nazis. The judge ordered Pesutto pay Deeming $300,000 in damages.
After the judgment, Deeming said it was her expectation to be let back into the party room.

Asked whether he would welcome Deeming back, Pesutto said:

'They’re matters for the party room, and they’ll discuss those on Friday morning...'
