Deeming Removed From Liberal Candidate List | Melbourne News
Description
Moira Deeming, a Liberal MP in Victoria, has been dumped from the party’s candidate list after dropping her legal battle over a disputed headlock incident — a move the party says signals closure as they gear up for the November election. The fallout began when Deeming accused another MP of a headlock, later admitting she misinterpreted the move, while CCTV showed only a hand on her back — police found no wrongdoing. The other MP denied any misconduct and said he deserved an apology. Deeming even proposed mediation, citing her overseas trip and illness as reasons for needing time to process. But the party’s state executive voted to remove her from the top spot in the Western Metropolitan region, officially ending her candidacy.
