As a very senior woman I am appalled that this man sits in parliament!

Because sexual harassment is not ok! And to then shame the woman after the fact is definitely not the way our representatives should behave.

When are politicians going to do more than pay lip service to societal standards, especially in relation to the treatment of women?

Absolutely no place in the Australian Parliament (or any Australian workplace) for sleezes. Just the fact that he has (virtually) identified the lady in question via publishing her photograph shows he has no respect, the conceited fool is a loser, he should be subject to the same rules, regulations and penalties as anybody else. Fair Work Australia should be involved, if that wasn't such a sad, compromised organisation.

I want decency in government. Good people to represent us. We have lost faith in politicians and governments.

Behaviour like this is reprehensible from anyone let alone a high paid elected member of Parliament. Turnbull is too weak to remove him and he himself is to full of himself to resign so it is up to the Govenor General to get rid of him.

The fact that what he did is not against the law, just shows the paucity of work carried out in the Parliament.

How dare this man think its ok, after admitting his behaviour was inappropriate, to circulate a photograph of his victim!

This behaviour has no place in any workplace - let alone a minister in the government. If the position had been reversed the Public Servant would now be out of a job.

An elected official, representing the people should not behave as Briggs has. Victimising a victim is unacceptable behaviour.

Hitting on a co-worker while drunk, and your wife is waiting at home for you? No go, sunshine. Pity she doesn't throw the bum out herself.

Disgraceful and contemptible behaviour. If we want to have our elected officials respected we must deeply condemn this man for his behaviour.

Yes his behaviour has been completely unacceptable and has not demonstrated his leader's request for respect for women!
