Shorten Calls on PM to Address Child Accessible Pornography, Following ‘Evil’ Social Media Statement
Aussie PM s Statement on Evil Social Media Should Be Channeled Into Addressing Child Accessible Pornography
Former Opposition Leader Bill Shorten has said that Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s message about social media being used by the “evil one” should be directed to address the insidious issue of child-accessible pornography.
In a Christian conference, Morrison warned that social media is facilitating the spread of identity politics, saying it is being used by the “evil one” and that younger generations were at most risk of its influence.
Shorten said that Morrison’s sentiment should be channelled to address one of the biggest evils children face on the internet easily accessible pornography.

A landmark bipartisan report was released today by the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Social Policy and Legal Affairs. The report of the Inquiry into Family, Domestic and Sexual Violence is the first to recognise the significant level of family violence suffered by men and boys, primarily at the hands of female perpetrators, and has made key recommendations as a result.
Mr Greg Andresen, senior researcher with the One in Three Campaign, welcomed the findings.
“For too long some lobby groups have denied that men are the victims of family violence in significant numbers, mainly at the hands of women perpetrators. This report is significant because the Committee has looked beyond the vested interests of some of these lobby groups and focused on the facts. Roughly one in three victims of family violence is male,” Mr Andresen said.
