Personally I'd really like to see mothers staying home to raise their children, old fashioned I know, but in today's world young families have no choice. Is this possible in Australia?  |

with this ABC thing... though I think this Milne bloke should resign.. it's pretty clear that the Govt are going to use him and Turnbull as scapegoats in this so that Fifield etc, can appear to look clean. Fifield is just as guilty of interfering as he's sent numerous complaints to the ABC... Milne is just one of their "spokesmen"" or plants
we see this morning that the likes of newscorp and Bolt are joining in the chorus for Milne to resign... soi its pretty obvious what they're doing

Mr Milne is alleged to have referred to Ms Guthrie, the ABC's first female managing director, as 'the missus' while other staff were present, The Sydney Morning Herald reported.
A media executive has also claimed the ABC chairman had called female staffers 'babes' and 'chicks', according to the report.

I'm beginning to think thst stacking the ABC board is going to backfire badly on the Govt. lyn from what I've heard about his interview,, he's going to say no-one told him to to do anything  It'll certainly be worth a look though |

Wentworth by-election 2018: Sharma trails behind Murray, Phelps
Prime Minister Scott Morrison has warned Wentworth by-election voters to think "carefully" before voting for independent candidate Kerryn Phelps, after a new poll placed her far ahead of Liberal opponent Dave Sharma.
Key points:
Dr Phelps said she found the positive results "heartening"
But Mr Morrison claimed a Liberal Party loss in next weekend's Wentworth by-election would cause "unnecessary instability"
The Liberal Party's own polling indicated Mr Sharma was neck-to-neck with Dr Phelps
The poll by independent research organisation Voter Choice Project showed Mr Sharma trailing behind Dr Phelps and Labor candidate Tim Murray by about 10 and 11 points respectively. The final sample involved 736 people.
While Mr Sharma received 38.8 per cent of the likely first preference vote in comparison to Dr Phelps' 23.5 per cent, the projected two party preferred figures showed the independent candidate pulling ahead to 55.4 per cent to his 44.6 per cent.
Researcher Raphaella Kathryn Crosby said the results revealed that Mr Sharma would lose the by-election if the Liberal primary vote was not over 40 per cent.
"It is unclear whether it will be Sharma vs Phelps or Sharma vs Murray, but it doesn't matter because whoever ends up [against Sharma] will win," Ms Crosby said.
If Dr Phelps "survives the preference count, she will win over Dave Sharma", Ms Crosby said.
Dr Phelps said she found the results "heartening" and said she stood for "strong policies the people of Wentworth actually care about".
