The Libs going on about how women quotas are "illiberal" is the biggest load of horseshit I've heard in my life.
What's illiberal is using your white male privilege to keep not just women, but young people, and diverse voices, out of your parliamentary party.
If your party doesn't have a 50/50 gender split, like real world demographics is, then you're suppressing women whether via rules or attitudes
