> A corruption inquiry heard Charles Perrottet discussed damaging Liberal minister David Elliott’s political career after his brother Dominic became New South Wales premier in 2021. In a message, he wrote that they would “execute the prick” after the party-room meeting. His wife Anita said she could not recall what the messages meant.
