Following a never-ending string or horrific allegations of bullying and sexual assault, several Liberal and National MPs have been forced to undergo empathy training to try and rectify their inappropriate behaviour.

The Quicky speaks to an expert in empathy training to find out what it involves, and whether it can in fact prevent such vile actions in future.
