well, that's exactly the question for scott morrison, because his government commissioned inquiry into sexual harassment across all went pie, susan astray. yeah. more than 2 years ago that received the report that was done by the 6 discrimination commission at the same post. and that has done this report into parliament house and k jenkins at the time where i had made 55 recommendations that were comprehensive, that were about what needed to change and changing the law as well as the behavior that would mean that women was safe at work and that all work cuz with fact and instead of implementing over $55.00 of those recommendations, the government did nothing for more than 12 months until there was a public exposure of an allegation of red within parliament half. and then women across the street. it took to the students in march is in much the she is much the justice management and it was only in response to many thousands of women and miss support is taking to the strengths of the government finally responded to the 1st report. but instead of implementing it back back, tries the really

as to scott morrison says he wants to put a stop to a lawless internet. i want to ensure that australians are safe online, making sure that the rules that exist in the real world must exist in the digital an online world. the online world shouldn't be a wild whist. where, where boston and bigots and trolls and others can just and anonymously going around and harm people and hurt people, harassed them and bully them and, and sledge them. that's not a strider of the lord would set up a complaint procedure for those who feel defamed. bullied or attacked online platforms will be required to collect users personal information, likely to include their names, email addresses, and telephone numbers. and if a case goes to court, judges may require social networks to hand over that data. and it's those online companies, not the uses or owners of pages on their side, who would then be held responsible for hosting the damage and content. but there's already been a while for backlash against the plans from users filing privacy is wrong. people already give out too muc

does the language in a text like this put more pressure on scott morrison at home?rison at home? yes, it does. he faces a federal election - he faces a federal election sometime between march and may next year, climate change will be an issue and this text will be an issue and this text will be used, particularly the ambition and the mitigation texts which includes a requirement for australia to update the 2030 target next year. that would homework it fails to bring to this cop. they will be strongly urged to do it. there is also a requirement for a ministerial roundtable meeting every year, to look at how the carbon budget is going to be met, how those increased ndcs will be met, and they will be a strong focus on australia's position, because australia's performance at that cop has been really appalling. at that cop has been really appalling-— at that cop has been really appalling. at that cop has been really anallina. ., ,, appalling. kevin, thank you so much. if appalling. kevin, thank you so much- if you _ appalling. kevin, thank you so much. if you are _ appal

prime minister scott morrison has previously been accused of being "tone deaf" on the issues effectingby the findings of the report. i wish i found them more surprising. but i find them just as appalling. just because what you do is important and stressful and demanding can never normalise that behaviour as being somehow, somehow ok. it's not ok. let's go live now to canberra, where i'm joined by australian senator larissa waters. she is a member of the opposition party the australian greens. iami i am i really appreciate the time you're taking to speak to us. i know you're taking to speak to us. i know you're very busy and you have to — off soon. as someone who works in parliament among almost daily basis, were you surprised by the findings? hello. sadly, iwasn't were you surprised by the findings? hello. sadly, i wasn't surprised, were you surprised by the findings? hello. sadly, iwasn't surprised, as a woman working in parliament for the last ten years. it's very clear that has been a toxic, sexist, unsafe workplace for a very long time. when the report was handed down yesterday by

it is 100 percent obvious that scott morrison wants to use this against his online critics. the only reason for forcing and on to become mr. man is to take action against genuine trolls, mostly fake accounts. so that will work just morrison's mouth and brain. unusual disconnects the sooner he goes, the better government must be pleased about the framing. anti troll could have used a few of a labels, anonymity ending law id collection law. as some back story to this is trailers already locked horns with internet joints this year after it brought in the online safety act, which lets a government commissioner demand information on abusive, anonymous accounts, facebook id back at that saying it was impossible to monitor all comments to it says it puts whistleblowers at risk, we discussed is fairly new strategy then with talk radio host and column is john gold and also digital privacy activists and tech expert build new i can't see how if twitter gives into australia and agrees to the set of rules how it would then be able to refuse to get into other more a draconian regimes which

it's specific neighbors now scott morrison, he met with the fijian prime minister, ab slice, pacific islands. have said this climate fund a new climate money is certainly a start, but the scientist is suggesting that the pacific will see sea level rise as 3 times the global average. it's also said that some of these islands will be uninhabitable by 2030 on a small number of pacific on and late us were able to attend the glasgow climate summit simply due to the covey pandemic. but they message was loud and clear. they want the big polluters, the co producing nations, as well as those rich countries to boost their investments in the climate adaptation projects across the pacific islands. otherwise, on the current trajectory, with a rise of emissions up to 16 percent by 2030 scientists say the pacific islands are in trouble or bangladesh is already being affected by rising sea levels of res. wanna hassan is the chief executive of the bangladesh environmental lawyers association? she says millions, they're facing an imminent catastrophe. we have the bay of big oil by the side of us, and

on friday i had spoken to scott morrison and said that the he had no political agenda by sending these peacekeepers and it's a matter of a mix of federal police as well as the members of the strain defense for. he said, they're not there to double in the domestic phase and certainly get involved in a political agenda that they are in a peacekeeping role. and they know he also confirmed that the request was made by the prime minister yesterday with the national security committee meeting that happened very quickly. and the decision was made very quickly and we had the troops arrived there overnight. so china was also reacted to australia arriving in the solomon islands. and they believed that some anonymous can. we're still pace, but they refused to comment on the strategies role. but certainly the way that the prime minister, scott morrison, what he's indicated is it's named mention only, and i will be there for a couple of weeks at the moment. we're expecting around a 100 troops. that is the federal police and he's trying to get both to be there for a few weeks. at least. all right. h
