ROYAL COMMISSION or bust into AWU scandal and Prime Minister Julia Gillard, it goes to the highest office in the country with too many involved - from Gillard, Shorten, Ludwig, Roxon and others and of course McClelland too. The questions out there are so many, the allegations everywhere that not having a Royal Commission is bull dust and a different set of rules for the privileged and the elite.

and for today's news:

Wednesday, 10 October 2012

Yesterday in Question Time Julia Gillard spoke at length, in detail, and passionately about how fed up she was with the Leader of the Opposition's sexist taunts and disrespectful attitude to her as Prime Minister. The outburst has been the talk of the town among women on social media.

However some commentators have criticised her hypocrisy in today announcing changes to welfare which will affect single mothers, her unwillingness to criticise Peter Slipper for his demeaning texts about women.

Well, as usual, quiet in Australian nuclear news. Well, quiet in all Australian news really, as media and politics focus on mud-slinging. At last, Prime Minister Julia Gillard has succumbed to the temptation to answer back, after many months of sexist mud-slinging from Tony Abbott and his supporters in shock jock radio. A pity, Gillard was doing well when she was just ignoring Australia’s infantile yobbos, and was talking about issues and policies.
