Where are the conservative women going?

Charlotte Mortlock - Former Sky News journalist, is behind the drive called Hilma's Network to get more women in politics.

Mortlock thinks more women need to be involved in the Liberal party at a grass roots level for change to occur at the top.

The former journo decided to start a network with one goal: flood the Liberal party with women and bring young women back to the conservative side of politics.

Headlines:

- States act to help Optus customers get new IDs

- Nation anti-corruption commission legislation to be introduced today

- Moscow sham elections have 96% wanting to be part of Russia

- Fuel excise cut to end
