Description

Greyhound racing trainers in Victoria are now required to take mandatory education on online misogyny after a surge of sexist abuse targeted MP Georgie Purcell.

It’s part of a wider crisis: nearly 90% of female politicians report gendered online harassment, with many considering quitting public life due to the relentless attacks.
