FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Opposition Leader Tony Abbott says he’s spoken to his sister about her run for the position of Sydney lord mayor.
Liberal Party sources have told News Ltd that Christine Forster, a journalist, has put herself forward in party preselection to take on independent Lord Mayor Clover Moore.
Ms Forster, who lives at Surry Hills, was on a skiing holiday at Perisher with family members until the weekend, her live-in partner, Virginia Edwards, told AAP.
But her older brother, Mr Abbott, who opposes gay marriage, said he had spoken to his sister about making a run for the job.
“I have and I’ve certainly encouraged her to have a go,” he told Fairfax radio on Wednesday.
“I’m proud of Chris. I think she’s a terrific person.
“She’s been very interested in politics for a long time now.”
Ms Forster, who is a member of the Liberal Party, has previously told The Weekend Australian magazine that she supports gay marriage and believes in a republic, unlike her brother.
Mr Abbott said his sister had the right credentials for the City of Sydney council.
“She’s been a member of the Liberal Party. She’s certainly helped on campaigns. She’s a journalist of many years standing,” he said.
“She’s been a community activist and if she wants to have a go, I think she should be encouraged and I think she’d be a terrific councillor on Sydney city council.”
Ms Forster has not replied to media queries about her run for public office when local government elections are held in September.
