Independent MP says unless the NSW One Nation leader apologises he will begin defamation proceedings
Sydney MP Alex Greenwich will take legal action against Mark Latham unless the New South Wales One Nation leader apologises for homophobic comments directed at the independent.
Despite widespread condemnation, the One Nation MP has refused to apologise for a graphic tweet he posted on 30 March that Greenwich described as “defamatory and homophobic”.
“He followed that up with media commentary that doubled down on his attack,” Greenwich said in a statement on Monday.
The comments came after Greenwich called Latham “a disgusting human being” after LGBTQIA+ protesters were attacked outside a candidates’ forum including Latham as a speaker, during the NSW election campaign.
When pressed for an apology, Latham tweeted “never apologise, never explain”.
Greenwich says unless Latham apologises and makes amends he will begin defamation proceedings.
no. different thing.
