Episode Details

Moira Deeming’s political career in Victoria is over after she dropped her legal fight against the Liberal Party’s decision to remove her from the election race — a move now set to be finalized by the party’s executive this Friday. Her downfall stems from explosive allegations she made against former leader Matthew Guy, claiming he put her in a headlock at a community event. Though she took the matter to police, footage showed only a hand on her shoulder, leading to no charges. Despite this, Deeming hasn’t apologized — and even after withdrawing the headlock claim, she insists she was physically harmed. With dwindling support within the party’s leadership and the election looming, her disendorsement is all but certain, following a turbulent preselection process that’s now been overshadowed by this fallout.
