Matthew Guy elected new Victorian Liberal Leader

4 December 2014

I am delighted that Matthew Guy has been elected Leader of the Victorian Parliamentary Liberal Party.

Matthew is a high-achiever, whose Ministerial performance and achievements speak volumes of his abilities and talents.

I am confident he will be Victoria’s next Liberal Premier.

I also congratulate Deputy Leader David Hodgett on his election as well as the Upper House leadership team of Mary Wooldridge and Gordon Rich-Phillips.

The Victorian Liberal Party will be well-served by this new state parliamentary leadership team.
