The latest and greatest from the Minister for Women














This is too good not to share (courtesy of Support the Honourable Julia Gillard Facebook page).

LOL! When our Minister for Women, Tony Abbott, was asked to nominate his top achievements in 2014 in his “portfolio”, he said:


“Well, you know, it is very important to do the right
thing by families and households. As many of us know, women are
particularly focused on the household budget and the repeal of the
carbon tax means a $550 a year benefit for the average family.”

Tony Abbott said he was “proud” to elevate a number of women in his cabinet reshuffle. Two women in cabinet. AMAZING, right? So praise worthy, right?


Tony Abbott also spruiked his “fair dinkum” paid parental leave
scheme, one that has been revised countless times and remains opposed by
many.



Yep – 2014 achievement as Minister for Women? More money for women by
abolishing the carbon tax – check. More women in cabinet – check. Give
more money to millionaires to have a baby – on hold / being revised /
check back later.



Apart from being too comical for words, I see that he’s still trying
to tell us that by repealing the ‘carbon tax’ families are still $550
better off a year. He’s both a comic and a liar.
