“How can we really trust the Morrison government and Jane Hume…when their previous raids on super played out exactly the way experts warned they would for women, especially DV victims?”

The Morrison Govt’s #GirlBoss Budget won’t help. Instead we’re still stuck with more leadership courses and career checks.

“My question is this: when are we going to name the elephant in the room? This annual “best practice” bonanza is emblematic of the Morrison government’s softly, softly — and ultimately ineffective – approach to closing the gender pay gap.”

Frydenberg’s bizarre, too clever by half economic pitch to women voters that the Morrison government’s economic policy is “delivering for women” is easily debunked.

Morrison was yesterday at pains to emphasise that he “hears” the women of Australia, but is he capable of really listening?

Why do some women in the Liberal Party continue to put up with it and serve a party that clearly no longer serves them?

For those wondering what became of all those big promises Scott Morrison made to women earlier this year. The short answer is: not much.

The Morrison Government is ignoring the gender pay because this time, they konw its increase is a direct result of policy.

The Morrison government has been cynically crab walking back from the report’s recommendations — and hoping no one would notice.

The Foster report and its recommendations are – at best — a band-aid. They won’t make Parliamentary workplaces safe, writes Kristine Ziwica.

Neither Jane Hume nor Marise Payne would respond to whether women’s economic security was on the agenda at the July 9th National Cabinet meeting.

Someone needs to stand up for the everyday mums who don’t occupy the privileged world of social media influencers.
