Prime Minister Scott Morrison has urged sporting administrators to adopt a 'zero-tolerance approach' to domestic violence after a spate of off-field incidents over the summer

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has urged sporting administrators to adopt a "zero-tolerance approach" to domestic violence after a spate of off-field incidents over the summer.

The NRL has responded with a new "no-fault" mandatory standing down of players charged with offences incurring jail terms of 11 years or more, while NRL CEO Todd Greenberg has discretion to ban players who are charged with offences that don’t reach that threshold.Advertisement Morrison, the No.1 ticketholder for the Cronulla Sharks, said it was time for cultural change from the top down.

Ide call for a zero tolerance of politicians lying and spruking schemes which defy critical analysis and logic

1st thing Morrison should do is to read the stats on DV. He needs to get a full picture of problem. For instance, mothers kill their children at a slightly higher rate than fathers. Sad. One in 5 intimate partner deaths is male. 20% of DV deaths indigenous who are only 2% of pop.

What about a zero tolerance against the Catholic church because of all the children they have sex with?

ScottMorrisonMP please speak to women going through financial abuse a silent fight

There just seems to also be so many women attacking men in so many ways these days, verbally, mentally, physically, and somehow it’s a lot more acceptable than the other way around. Women really need to do better.
