THE BRITTANY HIGGINS REVOLUTION
It’s been a long year since Australia came to know the name Brittany Higgins. The courageous Australian, then aged 26, set off a chain of events that sparked anger, outrage and, ultimately, a quest for justice.
The allegations, in which Brittany claimed she was raped in March 2019 inside Canberra’s Parliament House, unleashed an uprising that continues to have repercussions 12 months on.
Brittany’s tale was first revealed Lisa Wilkinson. Brittany, a former Liberal Party staffer for defence minister Linda Reynolds, told shocking details of her alleged rape by a colleague in a ministerial office.
