A Mornington Peninsula cafe owner has mounted a legal challenge over Victoria's coronavirus curfew, arguing it is putting her small business at risk.
The widowed mother of three - who last month flagged plans to seek pre-selection for the Liberal Party - says the curfew violates her rights to freedom."Last week I made $400," she wrote in a court document supporting her claim. "To this end, I have become heavily involved in local politics and discussions and am even taking a crack at being preselected to run for the next state election in the seat of Nepean for the Liberal Party," she wrote.
