The worst PM in the history of Australia just got dumped by her party!!!!
They replaced her with the elected PM she stabbed in the back and replaced three years ago.
It won't help the Labor party at the upcoming election.
They are set to be dumped with the biggest two party swing in Aussie history.
This bunch of idiots replaced the best Liberal (conservative) party we have ever had.
They got into bed with the Greens and introduced a Carbon Tax and a Mining Tax and basically spent money like it grew on trees.
It will be a long long long time before Labor ever get back in power.

She is an embarrassment to the female gender.

I don't know how many times we've had the question in quizes we go to "who is the prime minister of Australia"
Just had to google to see who it is now, just in case the question pops up again as Mark didn't say who it is.

She constantly accused the opposition leader of being a misogynist and that sexism was behind her troubles with the public.
She made a famous speech a few months back that gained worldwide headlines in which she used parliament time to accuse Tony Abbot, the opposition leader, of a range of sexist attitudes.
None of it was true.
Tony Abbot is the father of three teenage daughters.
When, in an interview, he was asked about what advice he gave HIS daughters on love and marriage he said he told them not to give up their virginity to anybody but to be sure they truly love their first partner.
Makes sense to me and good advice many many fathers give their daughter and sons including me.
That was blown out of all proportion with the feminist radicals saying he was sexist and that what they do with their virginity had nothing to do with him and he should mind his own business.
Gillard jumped on the "we are outraged" bandwagon to garner popularity with the feminist army.
He was asked what advice he gave his daughters, not what national policy should be!
When asked about abortion he simply said that the rate in Australia is too high (which it is compared to other western cultures) and we need to investigate the reasons why.
Along come Gillard and the feminists with their "It is our body. Hands off our wombs!" rubbish.
A couple of weeks ago she did another anti sexism speech that backfired terribly and led to her ousting.
She was dishonest, made very bad policy judgements, stabbed the elected PM in the back to gain power three years ago, had to make a coalition with the radical Green party and bribe some independents to form a government and was disliked intensely for her poor performance, not because of her gender.
Using gender politics the way she did will make Australians far less likely to vote for a future female PM.
She was a disgrace.

The biggest thing is the Deputy Prime Minister when Abbott gets elected with be Julia Bishop who has never ever complained once about sexism.
Abbott's handpicked shadow cabinet has many women who will become ministers under his government.
No, I dislike Julia Gillard with a hatred I have not had for any other politician. (Oh, except for one other Labor lead called Mark Latham who was a thug.)
Kim Beasley was the last Labor leader I would have vote for.
Simon Crean, who unfortunately backed Julia and so is now reduced to a backbencher, is a modern Labor person I would vote for.
But I don't see Labor getting back into power for at least the next three elections.
