Even women’s rights, just look at the explicit NSW abortion laws still in effect after 119 years within the Crimes Act 1900 sections 82, 83 and 84. All outdated religious exemptions have to be repealed as well as the stupid and silly legal requirement for transgender people to have “sexual reassignment surgery” (how nice of them, all because of Fred Nile holding the balance of power in the upper house of NSW). Also Australia needs an explicit national, consistent and uniform bill of rights or human rights legislation – and repeal all draconian and archaic state, territory and federal anti-discrimination laws immediately.
