Neil Mitchell and Jacqui Felgate, have reacted to the news where the minister in charge of prevention of family violence, Vicki Ward, walked out of state parliament this morning.
Nationals MP for Mildura, Jade Benham was sharing her experience of domestic violence when Ms Ward walked out, a move, Neil Mitchell called “ugly”.
“Jade Benham was nearly killed by her partner, nearly strangled … She [Vicki Ward] should be talking exactly to people like Jade Benham,” he said.
