Under-seige Morrison government MP Andrew Laming says his online behaviour has been “re-invented into harassment” and that the “facts are on my side”, claiming he only ever asked “hard questions” but apologised “for how it’s made people feel”. Laming has said he will not stand at the next election, but said he had no plans to leave the parliament until his term was completed. “A woman this afternoon attended Cleveland police station to provide information regarding an alleged incident in 2019,” the spokesperson said. “The feelings of someone, for instance, who’s been harassed or asked questions or something must be respected,” he said. “Because actually there is no bushes in that park, only ground cover and I was standing with my family taking a photograph of them.
