Ann Sudmalis ~ Lib ~ Gilmore (sp)

ABC are saying she will not re-contest next election.  Is this over bullying or S.44, or neither of the above?

Seems it is a pre-selection/endorsement issue.  Gee, who'd wanna be the Lib Member of a marginal seat these days?

Link.

Quote:
Liberal MP Ann Sudmalis will quit politics at the next election, blaming "branch-stacking, undermining and leaks", in a major blow to Prime Minister Scott Morrison's efforts to increase the number of women on his team.
Key points:

    Insiders say without Ann Sudmalis contesting NSW seat of Gilmore, the chances the Coalition will retain it are diminished
    Her announcement will also further reduce the number of women in Liberal Party ranks
    She says she has been placed in an impossible situation, and the final straw came when she lost her campaign team

Ms Sudmalis, who holds the very marginal New South Wales seat of Gilmore by less than 1 per cent, said she had been placed in an impossible situation and had no choice but to pull out of the race for preselection.


Okay, come on Sudmalis...dump on them like they are dumping on you.  Cross the floor on Dutton if you like.

comprehending the bleeding obvious - that she had zero chance of re-election to start with - even before any other mitigating factors were taken into account.

Sudmalis did not sign the Turnbull spill petition.  She was not one of the 43 who did.  I have a recollection that Turnbull intervened not so many months ago to ensure Sudmalis retained Lib endorsement for Gilmore.

Now she has lost his patronage, she knows she is fuqed, so off she toddles.

I want a woman scorned to now show some of that "Hell fury" on the floor of the HoR. Anything less, and she demonstrates she is made of nothing......was/is just a nodding head for the Libs who just dumped on her.

Here is the recent history.

Link.

So.....Morrison supported her then (as did Turnbull) so what have we got?  Either (a) Morison has withdrawn support or (b) he is still supporting her but the Gilmore Libs are giving Morrison (the new PM) the forks.

Lovely stuff.

Realism is big in Liberal land these days as they ramp up campaigning to win the election.

But who would believe ANYTHING from the ABC Socialist Propaganda Station ?

No realistic chance of winning a marginal seat hence quitting, maybe.

She is 63, a Grandmother. I guess that she got priorities straight.
