Senior New South Wales Labor MP Tania Mihailuk has sensationally quit less than five months out from the March election, saying the decision to preselect her factional rival shows the party has “not cleaned up its act” and is “not ready to govern”.
Mihailuk was sacked from Labor’s shadow frontbench last month, after a late-night speech in which she linked the Canterbury mayor, Khal Asfour, with corrupt former minister Eddie Obeid, and accused party leaders of ignoring the “horrific influence” of property developers.
