Julia Gillard and the AWU |
Almost fifty per cent of Australians disapprove of Julia Gillard's involvement in the AWU scandal and only eleven per cent approve, but more than fifty per cent disagree with the Opposition's pursuit of the issue. I've tried to explain the paradox at On Line Opinion in "Gillard was wrong, but we don't care". This post contains the quantitative figures. And the quants show that no-one comes out of the affair with distinction. The first table summarises what you can find in more detail in the following tables. Thinking about what you know of the Prime Minister Julia Gillard's involvement in the AWU matter, how strongly do you approve or disapprove of the actions that she carried out back in the early 1990s?
Thinking about the AWU matter again, how strongly do you approve or disapprove of the Government's defence of the Prime Minister Julia Gillard over this matter?
Thinking about the AWU matter again, how strongly do you agree or disagree with Senator George Brandis’ claim in the Senate that there was “a criminal in the Lodge”?

Just one standout example. Tony Abbott supported the AGW policies when the evidence seemed to indicate that AGW was happening. That was a long time ago now.
He changed his policy when the failure of the incoming data to support the hypothesis had gone on for too long to ignore.
Still in 2013 the incoming data do not support the AGW hypothesis. So much so that even the IPCC are having second thoughts.
The only data which do are synthetic data. Clearly the synthesis is flawed. Despite many billions of dollars spent over 25 years to find it, there is in 2013 no evidence which links visible global warming to CO2 emissions.
He was right to change this policy.
Unlike you, Kathryn supplies links to substantiate her claims. When you can supply authoritatve sources to substantiate your claims then you may be entitled to some credibility. And no, Andrew Bolt and Alan Jones are not authoritative sources. Try NASA, CSIRO, BOM, all Academies of Sciences around the world, and Royal Society for starters.
In recent months even some of the most diehard AGW protagonists and the IPCC have joined the ranks of those who have recognised that for 15 years or more there has been no significant warming.
They recognise that their "precautionary principle" no longer dictates urgency for the measures they had been demanding. The link with rising CO2 levels, which 15 years ago seemed so secure, is broken. More data is needed.
The CSIRO and the BOM, being deep in the pockets of the ALP, are yet to acknowledge this.
As for Kathryn's "sources". They are bigots engrossed in the promotion of Marxism. Kathryn has fallen for their lies.
Still no links to substantiate your wild claims. Enough said.
