John Pesutto used his ‘position of power’ to ‘throw these women to the wolves’

Victorian Liberal Party Leader John Pesutto threw Moria Deeming, Angie Jones, and Kellie-Jay Keen “to the wolves”, says Women’s Forum Australia Stephanie Bastiaan. UK women’s rights activist Kellie-Jay Keen has joined Moira Deeming in taking legal action against Victorian Liberal Party Leader John Pesutto. “It has been nearly 12 months since the ‘Let Women Speak’ rally, and John Pesutto has not apologised to any of these women that he has defamed,” Ms Bastiaan told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “He also hasn’t condemned the violent trans rights activists who turned up to assault women and to stop them from talking about their sex-based rights in public. “John Pesutto made a decision to use his position of power to throw these women to the wolves, and it has had an enormous impact on their lives. “I’m so pleased these women are able to hold him to account in court, for as far as I’m concerned unless he turns around and apologises and also reinstates Moira Deeming into the party room – he should not be leader.”
