The MP was suspended from the Liberals for nine months, but now faces a vote on whether she will be expelled from the party
According to a version of the minutes from the March meeting, reported by the Australian, Pesutto agreed to issue a “joint statement” with Deeming to “make it clear that no one was accusing Moira of being a Nazi, or Nazi sympathiser”.
Deeming emailed Pesutto last week, claiming he had not kept to the agreement. She said if he did not release a statement by 2pm on Thursday she would “instruct [her] lawyers to commence legal proceedings”. Deeming backed down from the threat, issuing a statement on Saturday denying that she had planned to sue the party and claiming she only wanted a lawyer’s assistance to help clear her name.
