One Nation is opposed to domestic violence, but I find this motion divisive. Section 3 says:
… adequately fund frontline domestic violence and crisis housing services to ensure that all women seeking safety can access these services when and where they need them …
Men are faced with domestic violence as well, and there is no shelter for men and their children who are facing domestic violence. I feel it's very selective and divisive. And section 4 says:
… adequately fund the provision of safe and specific family violence support services for Aboriginal, culturally and linguistically diverse, and LGBTIQ communities …
That is very divisive. I believe that, if you're going to do it, you do it for all Australians equally.
