Sexual Harassment in NZ Politics w/ National Council of WomenTuesday, July 21, 2020
Trigger warning: this piece discusses sexual harassment and assault extensively.
As reports of ex-MP Andrew Falloon's sexaully explicit messages to a teenager surface concurrently with new developments in the allegations against MP Jami-Lee Ross, Hanna investigates the scope of New Zealand's sexual harassment problem in the political sphere. She also interviewed Lisa Lawrence, President for National Council of Women of New Zealand, on why sexual harassment is so pervasive in politics, and on the wider context that informs it.
