Reformers were ‘spectacularly unsuccessful’ in taking over NSW Liberals, Catholic schools boss says

Dallas McInerney, the chief executive of Catholic Schools NSW, has told a corruption inquiry that a group of Christian Liberal power brokers, known as the Reformers, were "spectacularly unsuccessful" in their bid to take over the NSW Liberals. According to McInerney, the Reformers' model was never correct.

McInerney, a factional ally of federal opposition leader Angus Taylor, described the Reformers as being driven by "a calling... a duty".

The Reformers allegedly solicited illegal political donations, and their efforts were discussed at the NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption.
