I’m not sure people overseas realise just what went on in Australia politics recently, and how this informs my reading of the Female Lead’s Manifesto, so I’m just going to lift All Consuming’s entire post Recommended Reading, where she lists some useful media pieces about the way Julia Gillard (our first, and recently replaced, woman prime minister) was treated.
Following last week’s appalling display, here’s some reading for you:
- John Birmingham says it very well in the SMH today.
- My hero Annabel Crabb nails it.
This is another very good article from the weekend.- And I like what Paul Syvret says in the Courier Mail.
- Stephanie Peatling does a good job of it.
- Ben Eltham explains it in The Guardian.
- And even the Irish are agog.
