How many female appointments has this government made?

Cabinet - 1 woman.
GG - Male.
Oz High Commissioner to London - Downer (likes to wear stockings and high heels)
Australian Consul General to New York - male
royal commission into unions - male
royal commission into the pink batts - male
Commission of Audit - 1 female (Amanda Vanstone), 4 males
Inquiry into the Renewables Target - male.

Does our misogynist PM really believe that no "women of calibre" exist?

Let me guess, because they lecture you on using facts to make an argument, as opposed to thinking that what you heard at a local waterhole is the truth?

IN any case, you dion't need to be a politician for the appointments I've mentioned. I'm curious as to why Tony has not named females in any of his major appointments?  Why does Tony hate women?

I'm really impressed that you can rhyme :)

But the issue is that a lot of social behaviour, "social norms", are dictated by government policies, and government action.

And if our government is led by a misogynist who sees no value for women other than birth givers and household maintainers. then what will that say about our society in 5, 10 years time? 

We've already got a misogynistic PPL coming. We've got 1 "woman of caliber" in government. All decisions will be made by men, on the advice of men.

Does that not scare you one bit?

I am not a woman.

But do you disagree that a lot of the "social norms" are dictated by policy? and nourished by the actions of our government?

Do you disagree that Tony, who thinks women with careers are "women of caliber", sees women as second-rate humans?  I don't. It's proven in his actions and the actions of his government.  It's proven in what he's trying to legislate (PPL).


But you know... I'm glad you came up with such a coherent argument. No wonder biscuit-loving men such as yourself are in charge of this country and making all the right decisions. ;D

Too funny. Women in politics, Gillard, Milne, SHY,creating a harmonious society
They always seem so angry.
So smug and condescending.
It's why we have no female comedians,
They just aren't funny.
Even the blokes in parliament carry on like women.
Pyne and Rudd are effeminate, and aren't they annoying. Adam bandt, the list goes on.
Give me a manly Joh or Campbell anyday

If some politicians told you that they "identify as a woman" does that count as a female appointment?

Why does it matter?

Our senior leadership has no women either.
We are one of the most important companies in the world too.

It's about equality so merit alone. Gender is irrelevant.

A Government is accountable to people like we are to shareholders.

1. A company's main objective is to make profit.
2. Government's main objective is to provide a strong economy and to ensure social stability.

Those two differences alone explain why a GOVERNMENT is NOT A COMPANY. And should not be run like one.

*sigh*

Put down your "Economics for Dummies -1960" book.

A company has several objectives both financial and social - enshrined within its mission statement and then waterfalled by way of corporate and personal goal objectives.

Our company - a typical US listed entity - had the aim to be a good social citizen.
To provide advancement of its employees, to make the world a cleaner place, to continue to advance sourcing of cleaner energy and making people more attached and closer to
Energy.

We have a profit objective too.

A Government should also want the best for its people like we do and make the world a cleaner safer place like we do.
A government should also invest wisely to ensure it builds a surplus after investing where it needs to stimulate growth - like we do.

You can tell which of us works in strategic finance in the real world eh?

Your opinion of companies objectives is borne out of outdated nonsense which tends to be the case if you get your info from outdated nonsense.

Does your company look at everything through the cost benefit binoculars?  Then forget the mission statements and "Our Values" because these only count if they cost a little and lead to maximised profit.  Would you company ever say, "We'll lose this much money but it will result in us fullfilling a value of ours?"  Doubt it very much.   If an initiative to ensure advancement of its employees led your company to lose money, would they do it? Doubt it!

Whereas in government, you CAN"T ALWAYS look at things through a cost benefit binocoluar.  Why? BEcause that's when social cohesion falls over.  And governemnt should never look at a budget at a "profit" POV.  Sometimes ensuring strength in society and economy means a red bottom line.  But your company would NEVER do that.

Christmas Parties. Cost $20,000 on average and we hold loads all around the world.

Company ball. Held in California and over 100 employees flown to it in business class flights and hotel stay.

None of which have a profit objective, cost a lot of money and are all about a rejuvenated employee group and corporate buy in.

We are happy to spend capital if it achieves objectives. My point is not all objectives are financial, they are also social. The problem is you are looking at it from a very outdated, cynical view of companies which is no longer true.

So because the company spends what... 0.0001% of its total revenue on christmas parties, you seem to think it's objectives are around social well being as well as economic well being? 

;D  What's the bet that if the company was nearing a red bottom line at the end of the year, these christmas parties, designed specifically for indoctrination of employees as opposed to employee well being, will be removed ASAP?

We had that too - we had birthday cakes for all employees!  That went the moment they had a lower profit to the previous year. So much for social objectives.

I'd buy that these selections are based on merit if they actually did a short list, presented the elecotrate with a short list, and explained their reasons for choice.

But that doesn't happen.

Funny how the lecties are going on about a lack of women in the government and the appointments made by the government, yet they were mocking, and gloating over the defeat of, a woman who was going to be a Cabinet Minister, had she not been cheated out of her rural Victotian seat.

Blahahahaha :D
Maybe we are a sexist society. If so, the political parties better learn to adapt or they are f^^ked.
No one in suburbia liked being lectured by gillard or milne or SHY.
No one likes being lectured by Eva cox or Fran kelly or the million other aggro females.
Female voters probably dont like it either. They want women to be nurturing, not all bent, snarly and vicious like julia's "I will not be lectured by this man"
As per usual, sigh, the elites are just out of touch.
People watch neighbours and home and away. Pick a female politician like madge from neighbours or marge simpson from the simpsons.  Not some angry intellectual the "man and the woman  in the street" cant relate to

So let me get this straight, it's the fault of the people in Wangaratta/Albury/Wodonga that we don't have more women in cabinet? Because the women in government are lacking calibre, and the only ones with calibre were... Mirabella and Bishop?

Comprehension isn't a strong point of yours, my dear.

That wasn't what I was saying at all. I meant that lefties such as yourself were laughing at Sophie and some were making appalling comments about her, when it looked as though she was about to lose her seat, because of a dodgy system. None of up seemed concerned that it meant one less woman in the Cabinet.

Does our misogynist PM really believe that no "women of calibre" exist? ;D ;D ;D So smacking what? Nut-job nut-job haunting my dreams. In his red speedos he's not what he seems. Woman basher, sexist, misogynist extreme. Nut-job nut-job haunting my dreams. ;D ;D I'm really impressed that you can rhyme :) But the issue is that a lot of social behaviour, "social norms", are dictated by government policies, and government action. And if our government is led by a misogynist who sees no value for women other than birth givers and household maintainers. then what will that say about our society in 5, 10 years time?  We've already got a misogynistic PPL coming. We've got 1 "woman of caliber" in government. All decisions will be made by men, on the advice of men. Does that not scare you one bit? That's retarded, demented crap based on no reality what so ever. Honestly, if you are the kind of woman we could expect then i'm glad we don't have a vagina quota. ;) I am not a woman.

Really!!! :o

Well i'll be stuffed, you sound like a whinging old woman to me. :-/

Hand in you man card.....NOW!!! :(

So again, your assertion is that it's the fault of the people of indi that tony has no women of calibre.

So with the coalition, in order to have women in politics, one must always keep them as soon as they get in, regardless of how crap they are.  It's the only way.  If by some miracle a woman gets in, hold on to her.

Well yes, technically it was, but again, you are missing the point.  The left wanted Sophie to lose, and McGowan to win, and they didn't care that that meant that there would be one less woman in Cabinet.

I couldn't care less, I don't live in indi.  But I'm glad that indi stood up against poor representation and voted the way they wanted to.

Why do you feel the coalition has no women of calibre now?

You couldn't care less? Is that why were so being so cocky when she was about to lsoe and then when she did (despite getting many more first votes)?

Poor representation - she was up at 6 every day, working for her electorate. In fact, I have read comments from many in the electorate who believe that McGowan doesn't reprsent them well, and has changed stance on many issues since being elected. She also voted to keep the carbon tax, which most there want gone. Not that I feel sorry for them, they were warned but didn't listen, their fault.

When did I say that there were no women of calibre in the Coalition?

Funny that you should ignore the rest of my post and just highlight that part.  ::)

I didn't say that, I just said that because she lost, she wasn't made a Minister.

You, meanwhile, are saying that women should be put into jobs/positions just because they're women. And by the way, what do you have against penises?

For tony's it's definitely a man's world out there. Typical misogynist.

It sounds to me as though you have a case of penis envy.

I couldn't care less, I don't live in indi.  But I'm glad that indi stood up against poor representation and voted the way they wanted to. Why do you feel the coalition has no women of calibre now? You couldn't care less? Is that why were so being so cocky when she was about to lsoe and then when she did (despite getting many more first votes)? Poor representation - she was up at 6 every day, working for her electorate. In fact, I have read comments from many in the electorate who believe that McGowan doesn't reprsent them well, and has changed stance on many issues since being elected. She also voted to keep the carbon tax, which most there want gone. Not that I feel sorry for them, they were warned but didn't listen, their fault. When did I say that there were no women of calibre in the Coalition? Well you assert that because Mirabella lost , that's why we have 1 woman in cabinet. So no more women of calibre left? Funny that you should ignore the rest of my post and just highlight that part.  ::) I didn't say that, I just said that because she lost, she wasn't made a Minister.

No I'm fairly happy with mine, thanks :)

I'm not happy with my PM discrediting 1/2 the population. That part is disgusting.  And disgusting that your political party doesn't seem to recognise women as MPs. tsk tsk.

Good to hear, so am I. Although your posts make you sound like a feminist woman with a case of penis envy.

Maybe you could tell us why the men who are there at the moment are less qualified than the female MPs who are not Ministers? Also why your party thinks that women automatically should be entitled to 40% of 'safe' seats and Ministry positions?

matty and alvine....are you 2 married
