Victorian Liberals dump Moira Deeming in upper house preselection contest

Only-moderately-RWNJ Dinesh Gourisetty has won party preselection for a place on the ballot, putting an and to Moira Deeming's dream of reelection to the Upper House. Curiously, she didn't seek nomination for the second slot on the ticket, but I'm taking her loss as a sign that members of the Liberal Party of Victoria remember the absolute maelstrom of shit that ensued last time she was active in the Liberal Party of Victoria, and decided they don't want her back. The party's apathy toward Moira Deeming may have something to do with her running a defamation lawsuit against John Pesutto, the former leader of her own party (which has not been settled fully, and she may yet use to bankrupt him), her transphobia, her horrific anti-abortion stance, and her public appearances and endorsements of TERF and neo-Nazi ideologues.
