Abbott's "token" woman

[mantra]

Quite simply I wouldn't eat it. Anyway it's all irrelevant if Abbott allows this sale to go through. We won't be exporting anything to them and that goes for a few other countries also.

Foreign investment has come to mean foreign ownership.

Oh wow! The lack of logic by Short Dick is astounding!

WTF does a personal fridge or freezer have to do with live trade???

We can slaughter cattle humanely and halal, chill and freeze it, ship it to Indo. More jobs for Aussies, more value–adding so more export dollars. Same for sheep sent to the ME—long, miserable journey for the sheep, standing stomach deep in manure by the end, huge numbers of them dead.

Listen who is talking, the idiot who has to pretend to have qualifications!

Within Indo, the beef still has to be distributed. Probably by refrigerated trucks. Where the beef is killed is not very relevant. Maybe you think dey iz all dahkies living in da stone age? No wonder your simian hero offended the Indo govt so much. He don’t repair the relationship pronto Indo will turn to Argentina for its beef.

(Abbott’s) “new approach to the problem includes forcing the Australian navy to turn boats back to Indonesia and buying boats from Indonesian fishing villages to prevent them from falling into the hands of people smugglers.

Indonesian officials have criticized both strategies and warned against Australia taking unilateral action.

After Abbott won power, Mahfudz Siddiq, a senior Indonesian lawmaker from Prosperous Justice Party, the largest Muslim-based party and a member of the ruling coalition, was particularly critical of the Australian policy of buying fishing boats.

“His idea is clearly insulting the dignity of Indonesians,” he said, “It showed to us that he does not understand diplomacy and threatens our bilateral cooperation with Australia.”

Abbott declined to comment on Indonesian attitudes toward the policy.”

What a moron! His FA briefings went in one cauliflower ear and out the other!

There is one woman in Cabinet.
Two in the outer Ministry.

Abbott has stated there are more knocking on the door.
Abbott is in Coalition therefore the decisions are not just his you morons.

There would have been 2 in Cabinet if Mirabella won her seat.

Should women be promoted on merit or sex?

Gillard was a woeful PM.
The sexist crap she and her handbag hit-squad focused on was pathetic and bad for the party.
Just what Australia needs more sexist focus. Go Labor.

So blind.

This new government is already focused on sexism. Abbott is speculating with a hint of "maybe" a woman might be admitted. Who is he going to ditch to replace with a female? He might be surrounded by females in his personal life - sisters, daughters - but he's more comfortable with males - that much is obvious, otherwise why would he have considered going into a seminary at such an early age.

Take the blinkers off.

Gillard was the greatest PM we will see in our lifetimes. Not Crash–through-or-Crash like Whitlam, made reforms as significant as Keating’s but from a much more difficult position or minority govt with a termite attacking her from behind. Like I said, did more in 3 years than Howard in 12. Rob Oakeshott and Tony Windsor—men of principle, met with, liked and worked constructively with JGPM and she and they worked to have a full three year term.

People will soon see what they lost. The damaged relationship with Indonesia can’t be hidden forever—banning our beef being imported into Indo can’t be far away if the idiots don’t repair the tremendous damage they have already done and soon!

The difference between a class act like JGPM and the simian will be seen soon enough by most, no matter how the Murdoch press and its puppy the ABC try and hide it.

Oh dear! Can't think of a coherent response? That's OK - it's not expected from you anyway.
