The Liberal Party - How long? - Part 2

[Expensive_Horse5538]

In a bizarre twist (not that anything is bizarre with the Liberals in SA these days) disgraced former SA Liberal leader and convicted cocaine supplier David Speirs threatened to return to contest his former southern suburbs seat of Black as an Independent, where he remains popular, if Hurn did not get elected as party leader. Probably reflective of his seeming resentment over the role Tarzia played in his downfall prior to his dug convictions.

Speirs was the one who convinced Hurn to run as a Liberal candidate when she first considered entering politics as an independent.

Spiers clearly wants to get back into Parliament, given how he keeps popping up the media talking about issues such as the Algal Bloom - my prediction is he's hoping Rushton will back him to run as the Liberal candidate for the seat.

That's bizarre. You'd think that footage of him snorting a substance in his kitchen; then claiming it was a deep fake; and then making a youtube video claiming he was the victim of a Deep-State conspiracy involving the SA Police; and then pleading guilty to two charges of supplying an illicit substance would kill any chance of him making a comeback to public life.

Apparently not. We live in strange times.

Well this is the Liberal party we are talking about
