Julia Banks alleges she was inappropriately touched by male Coalition MPJulia Banks has alleged she was inappropriately touched by a male Coalition MP in an extract from her book published by Nine newspapers.The former Liberal MP says the unnamed MP put his hand “just above my knee and edged slowly and deliberately to my inner thigh and then further up my leg” in an “astoundingly brazen” act.“The only saving grace was that this time I was wearing suit pants, not a skirt and bare legs,” she writes of the incident in Power Play: Breaking Through Bias, Barriers and Boys’ Clubs.Banks says in her book that she was subject to slurs about her age and appearance from both sides of politics and was questioned about her age and who would look after her children when she was seeking preselection in 2015.She says she was subjected to “brutal and overt conscious bias” while an MP “as opposed to the more polite, unconscious variety I’d experienced in my corporate career”.
