Victorian MP Moira Deeming resigns from the parliamentary Liberal Party and plans to sit on the crossbench as an independent, according to multiple outlets. ABC Australia reports that Deeming says she will remain in parliament as an independent after the Liberal Party revokes her candidacy earlier this month. The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, and the Brisbane Times all confirm that Deeming quits the parliamentary Liberal Party and intends to move to the crossbench. The reports describe the resignation as following the party’s decision to remove her candidacy, which has led to her leaving the Liberal parliamentary team. While the outlets agree on the outcome—Deeming leaving the party room and continuing her parliamentary term as an independent—they focus on different immediate framing, including the timing of the party’s candidacy revocation. No source provides additional detail on the reasons for the candidacy change beyond noting that it has occurred before her resignation. Overall, the coverage centers on Deeming’s change in party alignment within the Victorian Parliament.
