Scott Morrison wonât confront womenâs concerns head-on, so women are coming to Parliament House to confront him head-on. By the thousand.
By trying to make womenâs concerns disappear, he has now created a quandary for himself. The Womenâs March4Justice rally has invited him, and all other MPs and senators, to attend the gathering outside Parliament at midday on Monday. The rallyâs originator, Janine Hendry, says the movement is âinclusive and respectfulâ.
This morning Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Christian Porter is an “innocent man under our law”.
The PM previously decided there shouldn’t be an inquiry into the suitability of Australia’s first law officer to keep his position after a series of allegations of sexism, sexual misconduct and rape. Porter strenuously denies the allegations.
Morrison based his decision on absolutely zero expert opinion and didn’t seek out the solicitor-general’s advice. His own two cents (and we can assume Jen’s guidance) was enough to do away with the serious claims put forward by a woman who later took her own life.
