Mark Latham ordered to pay $100,000 to MP he sexually harassed and vilified | ABC NEWS
Mark Latham has been ordered to pay fellow state MP Alex Greenwich $100,000 after a tribunal found he vilified and sexually harassed the politician. Mr Latham’s graphic comments at the centre of the case were in posts linking to a news article in which Mr Greenwich called him a “disgusting human being”.
It is the second civil case between the pair that Mr Latham has lost, having been ordered to pay Mr Greenwich $140,000 in damages after a 2024 Federal Court defamation case.
Mr Latham is vowing to appeal the decision, calling it a “woke, left-wing political judgement”.
