My eldest daughter snapped my official "Back to Work for 2024" snap which after more than six months off felt like a moment. Sooo happy (if a little rusty 🫠🙃) to be back. I am incredibly grateful for @Jess_Rudd & the team for ensuring @the_parenthood soared in my absence.

The eery radio silence in response to a woman outlining how a former High Court judge ruined her career compared to the cacophony we heard when a young woman chose not to smile at a powerful man is disturbing. Where are the screaming headlines about that man's lack of courtesy?

There’s no doubt that #StrongFemaleLead is incredibly compelling but it is also absolutely crushing. Australia’s treatment of Julia Gillard - led by Abbott & Jones et al - is a devastating indictment on this nation. And the worst part? I’m unconvinced we’ve changed much.

Both @murpharoo and @annabelcrabb have made a pertinent point in relation to Christian Porter that @vanOnselenP is at odds with. A criminal conviction is not the only justification for a Federal minister - or public figure - to step down/stand aside. #insiders

A genuine question for @ScottMorrisonMP Back in February you became emotional when Tegan George asked about @BrittHiggins_ You said your wife, Jenny, had 'clarified' the issue for you. Is this the way you, or Jenny, meant you'd want it handled if it was one of your daughters?

I am seething. A male staffer masturbating in a female MP's office. Sex workers. Phil Gaetjens deflecting @SenatorWong 's questions about the status of his 'investigation' after the PM's abysmally woeful response to Brittany Higgins. It is too much. #abc730

If my words shared as a journalist & advocate through two small independent orgs – @WomensAgenda & @the_parenthood – are enough to warrant a phone call from the PMO, tell me how rumours of a Cabinet minister allegedly raping a 16 year old doesn't pique the PM's interest?

It's not for the PM to "interfere" when a talented, brilliant woman took her life after allegations she experienced a brutal crime at just 16 that she said was perpetrated by a Cabinet minister that police can't investigate? We need leadership not obfuscation from PM.

What shameless hide of Morrison to call a summit on women’s safety having been instrumental in cutting funding for women’s services,emergency accommodation for victims of domestic violence and failing to respond to accusations of sexual harrassment and bullying in the Parliament

Thank you @murpharoo for asking the PM to explain why it's taken over a month for him to hear the distress of women.

Some context re #CredibleWomen It was coined by yours truly after a PMO staffer told me y’day ‘no one credible’ was being critical of the Budget re women. It was not coined to be exclusive or elitist. Quite the contrary. It is for ALL men and women who see the Budget’s flaws.

Am I alone in finding it utterly gob-smacking that it's only *now*, ten weeks into the nation's most disastrous outbreak, that the Federal government is seeking this advice?

The Prime Minister's dishonesty - by omission, deflection, semantics and subterfuge - around the status of the Gaetjens 'inquiry' is unforgivable. He misled parliament.

That it's a female CEO who loses her job over historic allegations of sexual assault??? It is so maddeningly fitting I want to scream. THIS is #WhyIMarch because I'm #fedup with accountability being the domain of women not perpetrators. #EnoughisEnough #March4Justice

If I saw any of my children behave like this at school - let alone adults in a professional setting - I’d be mortified. (I wish I could say it would *never* happen at home either but they’re under 10 & some insolence at home is age-appropriate.) This isn’t that.

Lord knows how many times I've said this year that there's nothing more that 2021 can present that will shock me, but here I am. Shocked again. As well as speechless and sad.
