Hello Juliet,
I am just reading “womens Weekly” Your article on Julia Banks is so wrong suggesting that she challenged the bullies.
In fact , she certainly did not challenge the bullies at all, she just accused the male members of bullying without naming them under parliamentary privilege.
She was repeatedly asked for details, by just closed up.
Doesn’t that tell you something.
It seemed by reading between the lines that Julia was not selected for the front bench, she was Malcolm’s friend…without knowing the details…anyone could see a woman who was spitting the dummy.
Your article is misleading.
