Deeming’s disendorsement is not the end of Wilson’s woes. Enter ‘teal’ Torney

Victorian Liberal MP Moira Deeming is set to be officially disendorsed by the party after withdrawing her legal challenge against the decision. This follows controversy surrounding her claim that former leader Matthew Guy placed her in a headlock, which has been described as dubious. The situation has created difficulties for current Liberal leader Jess Wilson, whose leadership may have been influenced by Deeming's lawsuit against Guy over his remarks regarding her attendance at an anti-trans rights event linked to neo-Nazi groups. Independent candidate Sophie Torney is now positioned to challenge Wilson further.
