Mikk, that's a cop out.

May I suggest you either put up, or shut up and, if it is Tony Abbotts problem and, you can't suggest who he should, or shouldn't elevate to the front bench, then that is simply cristising for the sake of it.

In other words, you're simply playing the a gender card.

I don't why people get so hung up on this silly gender quota. Women always have & always will be the power brokers via their husbands or boyfriends.
Real women know this & act accordingly. Simply having fulfilling a quota of this'n that isn't the answer although many are indoctrinated enough to believe so.
Look at what the female quota was in the last federal Government & the take another look how that Government fared. Enough said ? I suppose if Labor had swapped some of thos e females for women they might have done a little better. We don't really need more females in politics because we're already full of old women.

Mikk,

So who were the Misandrist pricks that rapidly elevated Juliar to PM, and lead the worst government in living memory?

>>the worst government in living memory?<<

I'm guessing you don't live in NSW.

Cheers,

Tony

How about Senator Sue Boyce?

What about experienced junior ministers such as
Sussan Ley and Marise Payne?

What about talented back bencher such as Kelly O'Dwyer?
She could have been given a role as Parliamentary
secretary.

It appears that this cabinet wasn't chosen on merit.
Arthur Sinodinos isn't in the cabinet, and he
should be, while Peter Dutton is.

Then there's Kevin Andrews who's had several disastrous years
as a Howard cabinet minister, including a sad stint as
Immigration Minister. Yet he's back as Minister for Social
Services. It does appear that appointees came largely from
the Howard years - which include Warren Truss, Joe Hockey,
Malcolm Turnbull, Julie Bishop, and Abbott himself.

The real worry is Senator Mathias Cormann - who's been
appointed as Finance Minister. His reputation for austerity,
cuts and frugality is well known. We'll have to wait and see
just exactly what's headed our way.

And BTW - where's the Science Minister?
Who's going to be dealing with climate change?
Why no special appointment for Science?
Is it because it's considered as, "absolute crap," by some?

Foxy,

Don't you know that CO2 is and invisible gas - therefore global warming isn't an issue.

..besides we now have a minister for ANZAC Day - and sport is now in cabinet.

(judging by Credlin's outfit at today's swearing in, we may see a portfolio for leopard print coats - one can only hope:)

Such fun!
