There are a few questions I'd like to ask Mr Rudd that I know are unlikely to be asked by Aussie media.
One is: "Is your wife a lesbian?" The answer obviously has such far reaching consequences for the economy that it was ok to ask the then PM, Julia Gillard if her husband was gay.
Such fun! I could ask him about policy but then that would radically change the nature of the last two years of vitriol and drivel that has substituted genuine public political discourse in Australian media.
The sexist assumption that raw courage and a ballsy insistence on shaking up the status quo - were not womanly characteristics is laughable. Even here in local politics - women who reach positions of power often end up playing geisha to powerful men.
Julia's refusal to do this has cost her dearly. A ring around of friends in Australia found their families were better off after the carbon tax, the education and health sectors were better and they were genuinely happy with the job she's done.
