National Party MP Maggie Barry sticks up for Seven Sharp host Hilary Barry calling anti-vaxxers feral.
A keyboard warrior's comment calling National MP Maggie Barry a "psychopath" backfired after the politician pointed out he had "slagged off" the wrong Barry.
Instead, the comment was meant for Seven Sharp host Hilary Barry after she called the anti-vax movement "feral" on social media earlier this week.
The man'scomment said: "Wow. So the psychopath Maggie Barry MP doesn't think we own our own body and children over govt?".
To which Maggie Barry responded: "You realise in your self righteous rant that you've slagged off the wrong Barry? In fact I agree with Hilary Barry about the feral anti vaxxers and you've just proved her point."
Yesterday, the news host shared a message she received from an audience member who wasn't happy about a story about vaccination that featured on Seven Sharp.
"We still have the right to disagree; to choose to medicate or not, and to free (respectful) speech. I am against vaccination and I am NOT feral," the woman wrote.
