7am · Tanya Plibersek on the PM’s viral DV comments and calls for a royal commission · 24 May 2026 podcast

We know so much of what we need to do to do that.

We need to get on and do it.

I think that's an absolutely vital question for us as a community to answer.

And I'm so pleased to be talking to you today.

And, you know, I have a lot of opportunities to have this conversation with the Australian public.

The Second Action Plan consultation is exactly that opportunity.

And it's a great opportunity for every Australian to have their say.

Can I add to that, though?

What often happens is there's a horrific event.

We have so much talk about it for a few days, and then it drifts out of people's consciousness.

What we really need is for this conversation to be sustained, and that means every one of us.

taking some responsibility personally for doing that.

Governments can do a lot.

Commissions, inquiries, we can do a lot.

We've got actually a really important inquiry in the parliament at the moment about deaths that are suicides, but where there's been a history of family, domestic and sexual violence, because we know suicide and FDSV are intrinsically linked.

These inquiries do play a really important role.

I'm not for a second dismissing that.

But every one of us, when we see behaviour that troubles us in the relationships that we observe in our friendship circles or in our family relationships,

When we see young men in particular talking about women in a way that is disrespectful or supports those really gendered stereotypes that we know so often become permissive of violence, every one of us has the opportunity to change that conversation.

And we shouldn't be waiting for any inquiry or commission to do that.
