A Victorian court hears a recording of a meeting between then-Liberal MP Moira Deeming and senior party figures, including Opposition Leader John Pesutto.
The Federal Court is hearing a second day of evidence in former Liberal MP Moira Deeming 's defamation case against Opposition Leader John Pesutto .
The gathering came a day after Ms Deeming attended the "Let Women Speak" event, which featured international anti-trans-rights activist Kellie-Jay Keen. "Now, we've got a problem, a huge problem now because people think, rightly or wrongly, that we walk in lock-step with Nazi protesters and Nazis. "Very obviously, I'm not a Nazi and I don't support Nazis. They arrived just in black as far as I could tell, they were to the left.""They were not with that group, they literally stood, the police let them stand on the other side of that pole and take a photo and then walk right through the crowd.'Are you accusing me of having Nazi links?'
Ms Crozier and Mr Southwick also used the meeting to express the concerns they had over Ms Deeming's association with "women's rights" activists who had expressed transphobic views.
