i love australia but i have grown up in a civilised country and i just can't get used to being regarded as something to be sexually harassed at will by any strange man any time they feel like it.

Only if you let yourself be. Sometimes attack is the best form of defence. In your case probably verbal.

On that subject, I was watching Cate Blanchett on the red carpet and the brilliant verbal takedown by her.

Exactly how it should be done. Totally and utterly disarms anyone.

NO, I did not say that.

I used the word "defence".

You can't change what others are like but you can certainly let them know where you stand on the matter IF it happens.

As opposed to being shocked but not saying anything, especially if one person does it more than once.

"not to mention ....Hardie Group.....asbestos.....mesothelioma"

So why mention it, especially when you are wrong again?

Bad memory?

It's OK for Gillard to defend people but not Bishop.

[monman12]

V3000 , my point,  which I have made a few times before and which P007 ignores (inconvenient to the party line),  is that within the legal system  the cab-rank rule is the obligation of a barrister to accept any work in a field in which he/she  professes competent to practise, at a court at which he normally appears, and at  usual rates.  

Bishop was a lawyer with Robinson Cox  which became Clayton Utz ,   CSR,  was a long-time Robinson Cox client, and as a result . Bishop, then Julie Gillon, became CSR's instructing solicitor.

I have asked  (with little success) what P007 thinks of lawyers who have to represent murderers, rapists, paedophiles. No perceived grist for the ALP mill there though.

I don't like violence. But I also don't like people attacking me, and if they do that then I will act to defend myself.

The LNP needs all the defense it can get from its friends, seeing as how it spouts policies which the majority of the Australian people find to be abhorrent and indefensible.

I'm a woman and I certainly do not admire Julie Bishop.

How do you know she doesn't know anything about domestic affairs ?

Would have far more knowledge than the Qld labor leader.

You tell us what experience she has in domestic affairs.

Nothing to do with any QLD Premier, JBish' suitability for PM. No Labor leaders are in line for the PM job.

[vicr3000]

It has everything to do with it.

Just because you have double standards, one rule for lefty leaders and one rule for LNP.

At least Bishop doesn't need a quota to get a job LOL, unlike Labor women.
