Another day another defamation case – this time it’s Liberal Senator Linda Reynolds against her former staffer Brittany Higgins and partner David Sharaz that has been making headlines since it kicked off in the Western Australian Supreme Court last week. And yesterday, it was former PM Scott Morrison’s turn in the video-linked hot seat as he defended Reynolds’ handling of the situation. He also outlined the support given to Higgins after her alleged rape, but he did say that the federal parliament’s workplace processes had let her down. Morrison didn’t offer only praise for his former Defence Minister… He said he wasn’t too pleased with Reynolds over a couple of things: 1) for not telling him about Higgins’ claims sooner; and, 2) he stuck by his statement at the time that Reynolds calling Higgins a “lying cow” was unacceptable. The trial continues with Higgins set to testify later this month.
