Bernie Finn has been accused of harassing a Liberal party member online. The article doesn't say who.

Can we work it out?

1/

I'm reminded of the time a recording was leaked of a Liberal Party room meeting where Bernie Finn calls Tim Smith a f**king ididot.

I'm not sure if that's harassment, or truth.

But, back to this 'harassment'.

Apparently, the legal action was initiated after Bernie and the complainant saw each other in a car park, and Bernie subsequently wrote about the encounter.

But who could it be?

3/

Perhaps this is a clue. Bernie wrote on Facebook on May 17th that he almost had a face to face encounter with Stephanie Bastiaan.

Does that name sound familiar?

4/

It does. I coincidentally referenced Stephanie Bastiaan as a result of her association with catholic-linked conservative think-tank and disingenuously named 'Women's Forum Australia'.

Bernie says, 'I'm pleased to see she's feeling guilt about the obscene lies she and her putrid husband have told'.

In this instance, assuming Stephanie Bastiaan is the complainant, the 'putrid husband' must be Marcus Bastiaan.

Interestingly, Stephanie Bastiaan has tweeted more than 10 times in support of Moira Deeming, and in a case of 'gee it's a small world', Moira was Secretary of Bernie Finn's anti-abortion activist group.

If it is Stephanie bringing the complaint, whose side is Moira is on?

After being booted out of the Liberal Party, and then failing to be re-elected having joined the confusingly named Democratic Labour Party, Bernie Finn is now the federal Victorian senate candidate for Lyle Shelton's 'Family First' party.

What a mess.
