Talk:Isobel Redmond

message: This is a good and relevant article which describes Redmond as "mobilising behind the right" or conservatives within the SA liberal party:

thread_title:  Redmond's factional (or pseudo-factional) alignment 

message: Is this noteable and suitable for reworded inclusion in the article?
 Then came the next ballot, and the result? Eight to Evans, 10 to Hamilton-Smith. Well, that was one result. The other was Redmond’s reaction. It’s difficult to find a single word to describe it. Fury would come close. Rage could be apt, as in a raging volcano. Some of those close to her say they saw a side the public has never seen in the nine months of her leadership. She slammed her glass down, they said, with such fury it sprayed on the desk and that she went to her office in a rage. One claims he heard her threaten resignation, another that she said she’d force a second spill – presumably this time it wouldn’t be a glass of water. For almost two hours she refused to speak with the media or leave her fortified keep ... “I am not prepared to discuss what happens within the party room," Redmond said icily when asked if she’d “hit the roof”. Frankly and bluntly, she said Hamilton-Smith was not her first choice as deputy. That he was her last choice as deputy was left unsaid. But she promised, twice, on camera, that she would abide by the wishes of the party room. At that moment, Redmond violated her reputation as a person who tells the truth.

replies: text: It came from a WP:RS and quotes Liberal MPs. Redmond hasn't been able to prove otherwise. Timeshift (talk) 06:00, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the point is that the scandal was reported across the South Aussie news outlets. So the allegations, whatever they were, are part of history, regardless of whether or not they're true. So mention of the scandal is admissible, probably mandatory, for this article.

thread_title:  Accuracy of Allegations 

message: Sources. Is this noteable enough? Should some mention of it be added? I'm erring toward yes. Timeshift (talk) 03:56, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Redmond/Young Libs 

message: Have asked Frickeg for the source in pre-empting the inevitable questioning. Timeshift (talk) 08:42, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It was the Who's Who. I never decided how to cite it satisfactorily since the online version (which I can't access at the moment) is password-required, so ended up just including it in the edit summary (far from ideal, I know). We could always just cite the print copy. Either way, the SAEC's election reports should confirm the year. Frickeg (talk) 08:44, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: If/when you do check it is it possible to get the Jay Weatherill one as well?  There is discussion on it  here. Philiashasspots (talk) 09:13, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It doesn't give the date for Weatherill. All the dates it gives for current politicians are already on Wiki. I'll check it again when I have access to it but it doesn't seem to have updated the politician entries in a few years for some reason. Frickeg (talk) 10:20, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Birth date 

message: I read on the BBC website that Isobel Redmond, "...once famously volunteered to be tasered by police..." (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-21863630). So I came to Wikipedia interested to know exactly what her motives were for volunteering to be tasered only, there's nothing about it here. So, is this so called famous taser incident something worth pointing out? 212.250.138.33 (talk) 04:46, 22 March 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nothing about the so called famous taser incident? 

message: I've added this with a WP:RS to the article. I was going to add it to ECSA/Kay Mousley articles but decided as it wasn't substantiated that it would be best not to at this stage. But note to Redmond - take a look at your own booths. Bridgewater and Upper Sturt stand out - 8% 2PP swings to Labor. It's a pity that there's no metropolitan 2PP recorded because it's certainly nothing like the statewide result. Timeshift (talk) 07:22, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
