NSW Liberal Party leader John Brogden has exposed how deeply racism is embedded in his party when he "joked" about Bob Carr's wife being "a Mail-order bride"
"It was the week Bob Carr resigned. I had a few drinks and let off some steam, and in doing so acted foolishly." said Brogden
Asked about his description of Helena Carr, he said: "I did tell a joke along those lines. It was completely inappropriate."
Bob Carr rejected Brogden's explanation and said Mr Brogden should resign.
"Mr Brogden is totally unfit to lead any political party, he has given vent to sheer, unadulterated racism - in a state where one in four citizens was born overseas."
