    It is more than troubling that you seek to capitalise on the death of an individual for partisan gain. Perhaps you should examine the issue with as much fervour with the LNP.

    Senator Fierravanti-Wells said she had experienced the Liberal Party sisterhood and referred to the absence of female support she received after she spoke out about political integrity in an ABC investigative report in late 2020.

    "Not one of them had the gumption to say, ‘well done for speaking out'," she said, adding the Coalition women's WhatsApps group "was more concerned with trivial 10th-order issues".

    A prominent member of the party's right wing, Senator Fierravanti-Wells has been a NSW senator since 2005 and served as a minister during the Turnbull government.

    She said women were hesitant to speak out about internal political issues. "I expect there were concerns about being summoned for a fireside chat … for breaching groupthink."

    "The concept of mean girls is not confined to one political party," Senator Fierravanti-Wells said, adding she and Senator Kitching drew fire from their own sides "because we were outspoken ... and not constrained by groupthink within our political parties."
