About

The Reformers are a conservative right faction within the NSW Liberal Party, comprised of young power brokers. They are currently under scrutiny by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (Icac) as part of Operation Rosny. Recent testimony before Icac has revealed allegations that the group solicited illegal donations and misused these funds for personal expenditures, including a bucks night. One witness, a hotelier, stated he stopped funding the Reformers after believing party leaders had "gone woke" and expressed disgust with the scheme, admitting he "made a mistake" in supporting the group. The ongoing inquiry highlights concerns about financial impropriety and the internal dynamics of the NSW Liberal Party, particularly the influence of factional groups.
