A woman who accused former federal cabinet minister Kent Hehr of making inappropriate sexual remarks says she’s been receiving threats. The sport and disabilities minister was ousted from cabinet on Thursday — less than 24 hours after the allegations were made on social media. In the statement, Hehr did not directly address the allegations, but said he believes harassment is never acceptable and everyone deserves to have their voice heard. Early on Saturday, Raworth tweeted that since coming forward, she’s been threatened and called names. “The last 48 hours has shown me the best of people and certainly the worst,” she wrote.
