Labor has announced it will spend an extra $32 million on men’s health if re-elected in May, as the parties do battle over healthcare in Australia.

The funding would be directed to community groups that deal with men’s wellbeing, such as Men’s Shed, which calls for the creation of more male-only spaces.
