Scott Morrison’s domestic violence protection plan is a ‘game changer’ | Sky News Australia

The $68 million Scott Morrison has dedicated to domestic violence prevention strategies is a 'game changer' says Sky News Political Editor David Speers.

The sum is part of a $328 million action plan, which includes funding for helping victims that report abuse, indigenous communities, safe places for victims and a portion for the 1800RESPECT service. CEO of Our Watch Patty Kinnersly told Sky News that prevention includes promoting ‘normalised gender equality’ in schools and workplaces, and encouraging equal and respectful relationships in all places where people spend their time.

OurWatchCEO 2% of the population.

OurWatchCEO But just a little too late and a little too obvious that it’s being done because there’s an election coming up

OurWatchCEO Seems the Muslim Parents in the UK aren't very tolerant towards LGBT Rights.

OurWatchCEO That should be taught especially to the Muslim community in Australia. Islam is rife with Gender Inequality (Inheritance,Court Witnesses,Gender Segregation in Mosques, Divorce,Honor Killings etc). Islam considers Women as less intelligent than Men.

OurWatchCEO The announcement came after Labor's and Morrison has spent years cutting into programs instigated by Labor when they were in govt but let's make it look like an LNP thing bc they're, you know, not misogynist 🙄

OurWatchCEO Jebus the MorrisonsMisogynisticMuppetParty Won't like that..
