  • Managing Gender: the 2010 Federal Election
    21. Managing Gender: The 2010 federal election Marian Sawer1 The 2010 federal election was the first in Australian history in which a woman prime minister was campaigning for the re-election of her government. Paradoxically, her party had no women’s policy—or at least did not launch one publicly. Despite the avoidance of any policy focus on gender issues, gender was a significant undercurrent in the election, as reflected in consistent gender gaps in public opinion and voting intentions. Unusually, the management of gender turned out to be more of a problem for a male than for a female leader. Gender Gaps and Gendered Coverage Gender was expected to feature prominently in the 2010 campaign given the contest between Julia Gillard as Australia’s first woman prime minister and Tony Abbott, a hyper-masculine Opposition leader and ironman triathlete. Abbott’s persona was that of an ‘action man’ always ready to don lycra and a helmet for some strenuous sporting activity; the Coalition campaign slogan was ‘Real action’. Abbott was also known for telling women how to live their lives, criticising them for taking ‘the easy way out’ by having abortions and blocking the importation of abortion drug RU486 while he was Health Minister. While the Abbott action-man persona might have been useful in a contest with Kevin Rudd, who was to be framed as ‘all talk and no action’, it was less useful in a contest with Julia Gillard. It required various forms of softening, particularly through referencing of the women in his life, but also through less-aggressive presentation and promises not to tinker with access to abortion.

  • What Will a Labor Government Mean for Defence Industry in Australia?
    What will a Labor Government mean for Defence Industry in Australia? Hon Greg Combet AM Opinion polls suggest a change of government in the Australian Federal election in (expected) May 2019. An incoming Labor Government led by Bill Shorten will likely feature Richard Marles as Minister for Defence and Mike Kelly as Assisting Minister for Defence Industry and Support. Jason Clare, a former Minister for Defence Matériel, would likely have influence upon the defence industry portfolio in his potential role as Minister for Trade and Investment. Under a Labor Government, it is possible Shorten would appoint a new Minister for Defence Matériel (as has been an established practice for many years) given the magnitude of expenditure and complexity of the portfolio. Shorten and Marles have been associates since university and have been closely aligned during their trade union and political careers. With extensive practical experience of the Australian industry, Shorten and Marles have a record of working constructively with business leadership. Both have a sound understanding of the role and the significance of defence industry in Australia. Marles, in particular, has a greater interest in national security and strategic issues and would likely concentrate on these in the portfolio and delegate aspects of defence industry to a ministerial colleague. Labor’s defence industry policy was reviewed and adopted during the December 2018 Party National Conference. The policy is consistent with Labor’s approach when it was last in government, reiterating support for: • an Australian defence industry that provides the Australian Defence Force with the necessary capabilities; • sovereign industrial capability where required, specifically identifying naval shipbuilding; • an export focus; • the maximisation of the participation of small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) in defence projects; and • initiatives to develop workforce skills.

Even serious journalists began referring to the national legislature metaphorically as the “monkey house” to encapsulate the farcical behaviour they were obliged to report. With Tony Abbott being pre-emptively ousted from the prime ministership by Malcolm Turnbull in 2015, Turnbull himself was, in turn, unceremoniously usurped in bizarre circumstances in August 2018, handing over the leadership to his slightly bemused Treasurer Scott Morrison. Suddenly, Australia was being branded as the notorious “coup capital of the Western democracies”, with five prime ministers in five years and only one losing the high office at a general election.

  • Inaugural Speech
    INAUGURAL SPEECH The PRESIDENT: I remind honourable members that this is the member's first speech and she should be given all due consideration. Before the honourable member starts, I welcome into my gallery members of the Hon. Rose Jackson's family, including her husband, Sam Crosby, their children, Oscar and Charlotte, her father, Mr Martin Butler, her mother-in-law, Mrs Bronwyn Crosby, and her brother, Joe. I also welcome into the public gallery the Hon. Chris Bowen, member for McMahon in the Australian Parliament. I welcome you all in the House this evening for the member's first speech. The Hon. ROSE JACKSON (18:01): The land we are on is called Eora. The first people here were the Gadigal. In 1909 this Parliament passed the Aborigines Protection Act, which gave legal force to the Aborigines Welfare Board and its wide-ranging control over the lives of Aboriginal people. In doing so, it introduced one of the deepest sources of our national shame by codifying the board's power to remove Aboriginal children from their families. I acknowledge the Gadigal today in this place not as a mere hat tip or commonplace convention but in solemn acknowledgement that the laws that gave the New South Wales Government power to steal the children of Aboriginal families, to take the babies from their mummies, were laws that were made in this very room, in this Parliament House, by our predecessors. The lives and resilience of the Gadigal should serve to inspire and humble us. They should stand as a profound warning: What we do here matters.

  • 22. Gender and the 2013 Election: the Abbott 'Mandate'
    22. Gender and the 2013 Election: The Abbott ‘mandate’ Kirsty McLaren and Marian Sawer In the 2013 federal election, Tony Abbott was again wooing women voters with his relatively generous paid parental leave scheme and the constant sight of his wife and daughters on the campaign trail. Like Julia Gillard in 2010, Kevin Rudd was assuring voters that he was not someone to make an issue of gender and he failed to produce a women’s policy. Despite these attempts to neutralise gender it continued to be an undercurrent in the election, in part because of the preceding replacement of Australia’s first woman prime minister and in part because of campaigning around the gender implications of an Abbott victory. To evaluate the role of gender in the 2013 election, we draw together evidence on the campaign, campaign policies, the participation of women, the discursive positioning of male leaders and unofficial gender-based campaigning. We also apply a new international model of the dimensions of male dominance in the old democracies and the stages through which such dominance is overcome. We argue that, though feminist campaigning was a feature of the campaign, traditional views on gender remain powerful. Raising issues of gender equality, as Julia Gillard did in the latter part of her prime ministership, is perceived as electorally damaging, particularly among blue-collar voters. The prelude to the election Gender received most attention in the run-up to the election in 2012–13 rather than during the campaign itself. Prime Minister Julia Gillard’s famous misogyny speech of 2012 was prompted in immediate terms by the Leader of the Opposition drawing attention to sexism in what she perceived as a hypocritical way.
