The Prime Minister pledged $70 million for developing strategies to target negative community attitudes
"A culture of disrespect towards women is a precursor to violence, and anyone who doesn't see that is kidding themselves," Mr Morrison said. Men's behaviour change programs are playing an increasingly important role in Australia's strategy for stamping out domestic violence. And for many men and their families, they're transformative.
Well that is just fantastic!! How will it be spent? A statue of James Cook for every capital to cheer vulnerable women and children up. ScottMorrisonMP’s government is finished. Let’s have an election!
More govt departments. Can’t wait
Smoke and mirrors from the Murdoch / IPA stooge already cut $300M by Abbott and Morrison
Call me cynical, but there have been a lot funding announcements from these muppets and an election in 2 months.....coincidence
Within the LNP?
A careful study may show that a lot of that is already committed.
Once again just replacing a fraction of the money taken away by Abbott Turnbull Morrison ScottMorrisonMP lies and corruption auspol Election2019 LNPout
Didn't they cut a whole heap of funding to domestic violence shelters when they were first elected?
444 million from nowhere for gbr... with no plan. .. money isn't the problem. .. How these incompetent vandals can become elected officials in the first instance is the issue. As we have seen, it's too late once they get the job.
Maybe the Government should start by reprimanding the producers of MAFSau.
Whenever I see headlines like this I also wonder how much was cut before it giving back a couple of crumbs
The reality is ... he maintaining funding for current programs after Abbott ripped out funding in the 2014 Budget.They have literally done nothing else over nearly 6 years till now;JUST BEFORE THE ELECTION.🤬 DV auspol Election2019
Will it offer counseling to violent or deranged women? Will it offer emergency accommodation for men and their children escaping crazy women?
It’s actually not. Just replacing what was gutted by the LNP farce.
It’s just numbers. Yet to be determined how this will be used to stop family violence. It take me some time before money becomes a barrier or buffer in domestic violence. Just numbers!
Trying to hoodwink people is very unattractive Scumo.
Tweeters do you realise we have just one ruling class ... the different parties are illusion to give you an impression of choice ! There are no choices in govn ! It’s all illusion & distraction .. stop wasting your time & feeding their contempt !
Why are these poli doling our crumbs at will .. ITS OUR MONEY not theirs . If they can give it now, why was it not given before ? Why is funds being withheld at non election times Anybody ?
After doing nothing for 5 years. And only $100 million shy of a single Manus security contract.
Too little too late ScottMorrisonMP
Isn’t that socialism, Scotty boy?
Now he’s just copying ALP announcements...
After cutting how much from the budget over the past six years?
Just how much did he rip out of systems for domestic violence. 88 women and children died last year and not a fricking peep..now he is pretending to care!
Hell, he can pledge to put people on the moon. He’s not going to win, so he can say whatever he likes, cause it won’t matter
Too late
. So transparent... While the cause is good, nobody believes it's anything more than a budget line for an election. Does it come with a plan?
Buying votes.
Scott Morrison Lies & Plagiarises Bill Shorten's recent Pledge & Policy announcement to combat domestic violence
ScottMorrisonMP NOW you are acting So transparent, ur PR team did a list of the things that matter to Australia and u are working ur way through U don't care and this is just BS WE R NOT STUPID U are gone at the election
Why have you waited 6years?
And $5.9 billion to franking credits.
Too late
Could have done it any time up until now, and won't go through with this pointless 'pledge' if he is elected. Liberal Party is such a waste of everyone's time.
Has treasury actually costed this one , or he’s just randomly shooting off at the mouth again?
How much did Abbott cut?
Why has he waited until now?
