How did a Slipper problem become a story of misogyny and sexual innuendo? Julia Gillard and Tony Abbott had a slanging match full of accusations, but somehow missed out on the main reason for the argument!

I was considering why Labor is losing ground in the opinion polls. Julia Gillard consistently pushes ahead with policies to keep her small greens and others happy. Mineral taxes are given so many different spins that we lose out on where the money is going to, how much it will be and what are the benefits. … [Read the full story]
