Gillard was a failed experiment. The Labor Party/Unions wanted to present a softer look to people. The experiment failed because the softness was in the head not the image.

Exactly She_el.  Brian Burke was not the best for WA but other men have taken his place without being super dodgy.

That was so wrong of me to say.

 

Brian Burke was super dodgy.  

 

Julia Gillard is a brilliant woman and let's hope that many more like her are capable of filling her shoes in the future in politics.

We so much need anti kudos for some of the posts in here  😄

Rudd was reinstalled to try to salvage some of the furniture, that he did, rescued some of the beanbags 🙂

Heaven help us, if that should come to pass in the next few generations

So in your opinion did she fail because she was a woman, or did she fail because she was incompetnt?

And if it was because she was incompetant, how does that stuff things up for other women? 

They made a huge mistake in putting Rudd back in Poddster.  I will give you that much.

So would you throw up your hands in horror if Julie Bishop eventually succeeded Tony Abbott as Prime Minister.

JO: "MM I really can't discuss sexism or misogyny with you."
 Well do not then.

JO: "All you bothered to read was that younger son had spewed in his bedroom and you told me "You're a mother,  clean it up." That was your bmw rider ID"

What absolute nonsense JO, apart from the fact That I would not say such a thing (having been a sole parent for a while of two sons) BMW rider was my old nemesis "Stew" the leader of the Pondies and we got along as well as I do with TRBAG. He informed us all that he drove a BMW motor bike.
Here is an image I used to "stir" him with.

JO get your facts right.

Gillard was a waste of space, whatever gender she may be. I don't make that distinction but the installers probably would.
