Hanson-Young says men should ‘call out’ boys’ club culture – as it happened

Greens senator Sarah Hanson-Young said men should call out the 'boys' club' culture in Australian politics. The Guardian's live blog also covered the shark attack on Leah Stewart, housing, rents and the cost-of-living squeeze.

Greens senator Sarah Hanson-Young has long campaigned against gender inequality and toxic political cultures. Her remark came amid recurring public attention to sexism in Australian public life.

The comments keep the spotlight on how parliament and institutions treat women, and whether men share responsibility for breaking down a perceived boys' club atmosphere.
