In a shocking move, White Ribbon Australia has severed ties with the National Rugby League (NRL) over its decision to invite former US President Donald Trump to a major event. The charity, which works to end men's violence against women, labelled the move 'disappointing and tone deaf'. As a key player in promoting a culture of respect and equality, sporting organisations like the NRL have a vital role to play in preventing domestic violence and promoting women's rights. The decision has sparked outrage, with many calling for greater accountability from sporting bodies in Australia. Key issues like gender equality and violence prevention are at stake.
