Show Notes
My guest today is Moira Deeming a well-known Australian politician who has been member of the Victorian Legislative Council, the upper house of the Parliament of Victoria, for the Western Metropolitan Region since 2022.
Moira has risen to national prominence in Australia and internationally as a result of her battle resisting various aspects of gender ideology. She was also involved for most of last year in high profile defamation trial against then Victorian Liberal leader who falsely accused her of being an associate of neo-Nazi sympathisers and extremists.
Moira has an interesting and unconventional background for a Liberal Party representative and has long standing traditional ties to the Labor Party. The district she represents an area which has long been seen as being "dead red" i.e. an area where the centre-right has no chance of success. Today we discuss:
- How she is holding up after her long trial
- What she thinks is ultimately driving proponents of the gender ideology
- Why it is that even politicians that agree with her do not have the courage to speak up
- Why there is an intergenerational divide among women on gender ideology
- What impact Trump's recent executive orders might have in Australia
- What she thinks of the realignment in politics in the UK and US and what is means for Australia
- Why Victoria is no longer the "jewel in the crown" of the Liberal Party and what can be done about that.
And much much more.
