    “This government is not dying of shame. My father did not die of shame!”
    This is one of the most powerful moments in this speech for me. For context, earlier in the speech, Julia refers to the conduct of the Sydney Young Liberals as well as some members of the opposition who were also in attendance at a party meeting. Someone at this meeting had joked in a speech that Julia’s father (who had recently passed away) died of shame, alluding to her performance as prime minister. Everyone in the audience laughed and cheered and it wasn’t until someone leaked it to the media that anyone in attendance pretended to be offended.

      Well he has a point, men do tend to have a better temprament to lead since the distribution of qualities is men is highly spread out, bu extention of which there are more men who are at the very peak, hence in more of a position to lead while also making up most of the bottom of the landscape(more than 90 percent people in prison men and more than 90 percent top ceo's also men)
      On average men and wemen may be equal but at the extremes it is almost all men.

      90 percent people in jails:- Men
      90 percent top ceos:- Men
      90 percent top richest:- Men
      Its clear to see all the people with extreme traits are men, as you want the leader to be the very best, it is almost always men, not saying its all men though, just most.
      As for proof, in the top 100 players there is one woman, one, and 10 percent players are wemen in total, while wemen are just as capable as men, people who tend to spen 16 hours a day working their entire life mostly tend to be men.

      just one point,
      highest hours productive working people are mostly men(above 12 hours)
      Now this does qualify most top leaders to be men, there is no doubt here better capability more leadership skills equals top positions.
      This is why most top leaders are men, dont deny facts bro.

      Gillard had just got back from her fathers funeral here & Abbott admitted that he used the "died of shame" phrase 17 times before Gillard launched her famous speech.

      @@sparksfly6149 Really lame. I never said she's smart. I pick the best politicians and vote every chance. Here In the US, I wanted Hillary to win. We have female Tulsi Gabbard who I've supported and made videos about. I was supporting Elizibeth Warren until she started with the immature behavior & feminist rhetoric. She lies a lot too.
      I also like Marianne.
