Under John Barilaro, the Nationals had planned to support it. Labor is planning to offer a conscience vote. He voted against decriminalisation of abortion in NSW last year, and will almost certainly oppose the assisted dying bill that independent Alex Greenwich plans to bring before parliament in October. On social issues, Perrottet is likely to be very conservative. Perrottet attended Redfield college, which has an Opus Dei priest as its chaplain, however Perrottet has said he is not a member of the ultra-conservative Catholic order. He is a leading member of the right and has been involved in factional politics since a young man, in the Young Liberals and later as a staffer for David Clarke, then as leader of the conservative right. Perrottet is a staunch conservative Catholic, father of six, and is one of 13 children. Stokes is likely to announce his resignation from politics by the next election and other long-serving MPs such as Brad Hazzard are expected to follow.īut what can we expect in terms of policy from the Perrottet team? The Perrottet ticket did not announce until it had secured the numbers and will almost certainly be duly elected on Tuesday. He is still challenging for the leadership, but stands little chance. The planning minister, Rob Stokes, is a far more easygoing character and a solid performer when it comes to policy. She detailed how icare, which reports to the treasurer, had systematically underpaid injured workers and how executives had been rewarded with lavish paycheques. He also carries the baggage of the icare scandal, revealed by investigative journalist Adele Ferguson, to live down. Perrottet is quick-witted, but he is also a cutting, spiky character and not your everyman. But whether this team can sell themselves to the public of NSW remains to be seen.
