Do Greens staff deserve a safe work environment? What have the Greens done when staff have brought complaints to the leader's office before PWSS existed? I asked Adam Bandt and Mehreen Faruqi. Watch this annotated video to see their (deflected) response: smh.com.au/politics/feder…

Yesterday, the man who threatened to kill my family was sentenced. It’s not the first time he’s threatened harm to others - including journalists, minority groups and an MP. Online death threats are never okay & have a real world impact on those who are on the receiving end.

You can’t lie when you sell someone a chicken, but it’s legal to lie in political advertising in Australia. The deliberate spread of misinformation by parties and other groups was a prominent feature of the recent election. We have to fix this problem in the 48th Parliament.

One in three Australian men admit to committing intimate partner abuse. Today’s report from Australian Institute of Family Studies (AIFS) is a shocking reminder of the increasing prevalence of gendered violence in our community. It has to end.

Wow. This is one powerful article. I was among this disgraced judge’s victims. Attempts to honour him are an insult smh.com.au/national/i-was…

The message to victims is clear: no amount of proof is enough. A video showing him dragging her and beating her as she tried to escape. Tapes of him assaulting her. None of it was enough And yet, I am so proud of Cassie. She dealt a death blow he will never fully recover from
