The Law Council of Australia has warned accusing family law courts of driving domestic violence is “dangerous” behaviour after video emerged of One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts making the suggestion.
The Law Council of Australia has labelled ‘irresponsible and plain stupid’ past comments by Senator Malcolm Roberts, blaming the family law system for driving men to lash out with violence.
It’s urged all MPs to undergo family violence awareness training ahead of an inquiry examining the nation’s family law system announced last week.
The One Nation Senator said "there's no excuse for violence", but blamed family courts for “driving violence” and making men lash out in a Facebook Live video in March last year.
