The climate of debate within our country at the moment has degenerated into a slanging match of who can fling the most vitriol towards our first female PM.
We have shock jocks wanting to " Put her in the same chaff bag as Julia Gillard and throw them both out to sea." Spectators in the Gallery calling her "a lying scrag", and who can forget the opposition leader appearing in a protest in front of the "Ditch the Witch" and "Bob Browns Bitch" placards. Yes, this is the kind of 'debate' we are having in regards to one of the most important legislations to face out country.
