She also criticized police fatigue with domestic violence calls and called for rolling back family law reforms, blaming “woke” parliamentarians. Her comments drew swift condemnation, with the Sex Discrimination Commissioner labeling them “harmful, wrong, and dangerous,” stressing that violence is always the perpetrator’s choice.
