Well, what an end to the Parliamentary year.
The Opposition are baying for blood for the P.M. to resign. They are saying that she has commited an illegal act in 1992 and misled the WA Corporate Affairs Commission over legal advice in setting up the "Australian Workers' Union Workplace Reform Association".
A union cannot be incorporated in this way apparently.
But it seems her advice was right and it was not a Trade Union but something set up by officials of a Trade Union.
There is no evidence what so ever of Gillard acting in a criminal way. She gave legal advice for a client as she should do.
Gillard wiped the floor on Abbott and Bishop on the Parlimentary floor, they now look like desperate muck rackers.
What a poor performer Abbott is when the whips are cracking.
I don't know if Gillard has acted illegally in some way. Maybe her judgement in 1992 was not the best for giving advice for her boyfriend and not opening a file, but not a hanging offence. There is no evidence of this.
Her haters are baying for blood as they have since August 2010, what a mammoth dummy spit it has been.
Will Abbott and Bishop last as leader and deputy leader?
The attack at all costs strategy is not just Abbott's, it is also Peta Credlin's. She was also the opposition leaders chief of staff when the Godwin Gretch debacle happened. If you have ever been in parliament during question time, the Liberal party acts shamefully. There is a constant chatter during question time, stupid playing with props being handed around, all designed to make the Labor Government look poor. It makes parliament look poor, including the opposition. It's a lose/lose situation, and the Liberal's are going to have to wake up to the self harm they are causing.
As for the reason for the unrelenting attacks, Abbott seriously thought he could bring a woman down if he just bullied her enough, that he would be in the Lodge hosting the end of year party for the press the year after the election. The rumours of Gillards imminent departure have never stopped. Abbott's problem, though, is that Gillard is a lot tougher than he assumed she was, just because she was a woman. Gillard is far from faultless, or innocent, I think Labor could do better. But she isn't going to go just because an idiot thinks he can bully her out of the job.
