Brenton Pavier, a New South Wales Liberal Party candidate for the NSW Central Coast seat of Wyong, was disendorsed after party leader Peter Debnam became aware of a hoax SMS that Pavier forwarded. Pavier could not recall the exact wording of the message, but recalled it involved a "video store."

According to the Sydney Morning Herald it apparently said: "The video you have ordered about how to have sex with men with small penises is ready for collection and the DVD titled Anal Sex with Goats is overdue."

Pavier told the Herald he had sent the message to "three or four friends" and had been "stitched up" by his political rivals.

Mr. Debnam said although the text was intended to be humorous, he believed it was inappropriate behavior for a Liberal candidate.

Councillor Pavier said he accepted Mr Debnam's decision. "Obviously I'm saddened by the action, but I stand by what Peter's had to do. He's got high standards and he expects high standards from his candidate and his shadow ministry and I stand by the party."

Mr. Pavier has been replaced as Liberal candidate for Wyong by Ben Morton.
