Greens senator wins defamation case against David Leyonhjelm

Greens senator Sarah Hanson-Young has won a defamation case against former senator David Leyonhjelm after he made comments suggesting she was a misandrist and a hypocrite.

Senator Hanson-Young previously told the court she felt bullied and intimidated when the comments were made in the Senate chamber, and again during media interviews in June and July of 2018.

She also said Mr Leyonhjelm repeatedly, falsely claimed she had said all men were rapists during a debate about self-defence.

Justice Richard White has ordered Mr Leyonhjelm to pay $120,000 in damages.
