A CANBERRA MP has encouraged past and current Labor female staffers to report accounts of sexual abuse against federal parliamentary members.
Member for Fenner Andrew Leigh has made no apologies over urging women to dob in men of his own party amid national headlines of four alleged sexual assault incidents against a one-time Liberal staffer and accusations of rape against Attorney-General Christian Porter.
The call out comes after Liberal senator Sarah Henderson recently referred an accusation of rape to police against an unnamed Labor member of federal parliament.
The sitting Victorian member from Geelong sent an email to federal police on February 28 of information from a woman giving details of the rape allegation.
