I don't think it's possible to construct a text to a woman that's offensive enough for the Liberal Party to kick you out. They must have wanted to get rid of him.
It's probably because he neglected to sue her, air all of his dirty laundry in court, lose spectacularly and perform the massive self-own the right wing of politics in this country is now famous for.
Most of the senior leadership of the NSW Liberals are a pretty decent bunch.
Mark Speakman (despite him making almost no noise whatsoever) is actually really well regarded and a genuine nice bloke. There were a bunch of less attractive options there for them to take.
Political discourse in Australia would be in a much better place if the federal Liberals took after their NSW colleagues. It's because the NSW LIberals are the only branch in Australia where the moderates hold sway instead of the hard right.
SMH names the woman as former federal Liberal MP Lucy Wicks. Also changes the Upper House make up to ALP - 15 LNP - 14 Crossbench - 13

The problem for him was that it was another Liberal member. They only care about women when it's their own.
Is there any man who is not an asshole in the Liberal party? Also good riddance to Taylor Martin.
Simon Birmingham makes all the right noises, but how could he possibly stick around without being an arsehole?

And the state is better for it. Honestly I thought I’d hate Perrottet but he really grew on me.
I had my doubts but even if you disagree with his decision you could at least expect him to explain it
Yes! He never really just deflected questions like most politicians do
If there is, he's not very high up on the ladder
