Senator in sue threat
THE Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young is considering suing David Leyonhjelm for defamation for the sexist slur he made about her on Sky News.
Senator Hanson-Young has hired one of Australia’s top barristers, Rebekah Giles, who was yesterday drafting letters to Liberal Democratic Party Senator Leyonhjelm, Sky News and 3AW.
But despite widespread condemnation across the political spectrum, Senator Leyonhjelm yesterday refused to apologise for the remarks he made about Senator Hanson-Young.
