In support of the March 4 Justice rallies, ex-liberal staffer, Brittany Higgins, delivered her first speech since going public with her story, where she alleged she was raped by a colleague at Parliament House.
At the March 4 Justice rally in Canberra, Higgins shared that she felt the need to speak out “out of necessity” as the “system is broken”.
“We are all here today not because we want to be here, [but] because we have to be here. We fundamentally recognise the system is broken, the glass ceiling is still in place, and there are significant failings in the power structures within our institution,” Higgins said to the crowd.
