Jane Caro poised to run against Tony Abbott in seat of Warringah

The author and commentator Jane Caro has confirmed she is seriously considering running against Tony Abbott for the seat of Warringah at the next election, and says it is her “duty”.

 The writer Jane Caro says she feels it is her ‘duty’ to run
against Tony Abbott as an independent in the seat of Warringah.
After the apparent victory of independent Kerryn Phelps in Wentworth on Saturday, other very safe Liberal seats – including that of the former prime minister’s seat on Sydney’s Northern Beaches – are now in the sights of prospective challengers.

On Saturday night Caro’s sister, a school principal, tweeted her in response to a call for Warringah candidates.

Caro responded: “Grew up there. Went to school there. Sent kids to school there. Live in neighbouring electorate. Anyone interested? Get in touch.”
