I wrote about my discomfort with women being treated as window dressing before I had watched Tony Abbott ask the contestants in Channel Nine’s Big Brother to remember him as the one with the “not bad looking daughters”.

Tony Abbott is set to become Australia’s next Prime Minister after leading the Coalition to a resounding victory at the ballot box.

He will be sworn in as Prime Minister any day now but according to Sydney Morning Herald’s political editor Peter Hartcher Tony Abbott is “the first unpopular Opposition Leader to win an election” in the history of the Fairfax Nielsen poll.

Over the weekend it was reported that former prime minister Bob Hawke cited her having a three year old child as a reason Tanya Plibersek isn’t being considered a frontrunner for the ALP leadership.

After writing about my hellish experience finding suitable childcare for our daughters a reader asked a very valid question in the comments section.

Earlier this week I wrote about Bob Hawke’s assertion that Tanya Plibersek isn’t in contention for the ALP leadership because she has a three-year old.

New research confirms that hope alone will not boost the representation of women on boards.

Over the weekend The Guardian seized a sizeable scoop and published an essay written by the former prime minister Julia Gillard.

On Sunday night I appeared on a television program called Paul Murray Live on Sky News.

Last week, with my great-Aunt, I attended a lecture given by a senior research fellow from The University of Sydney, Dr Julia Horne.
