Politicians are now included in Sex Discrimination Act for the first time.
Here we are in 2021, if you are like me, you would have been unaware that those we entrust to make the laws, make them for everyone else but not themselves. The appalling behaviours that we have heard about for decades, have gone unpunished.

“Everyone has a right to be safe at work. Sexual harassment must be prohibited." Scott Morrison PM
It is imperative that the perpetrators of sexual abuse are dealt with adequately within the legal system no matter who they are.
"We the people of Australia do not believe that Federal Parliament should be able to behave as a lawless bubble" . -Dr Kate Ahmad / Dr Anita Hutchinson
