A few years ago her & Abbott we’re regarded as our worst PMs.
Chuffed Gillard came out to clarify the definition of racism & support Covid19 genesis investigation . I hope US opinion leaders were listening & convince well intentioned young Americans that China is manipulating their minds, just like it manipulates its own citizens.
Looking forward to the first cure!
Lol Julia is awesome.. jow many x lnp go on to do something positive for the people and planet
randlight I love watching JuliaGillard go from strength to strength tirelessly working to effect important outcomes & change for so many. So inspiring to watch. I think her work, intellect & ability are unmatched by other former (and current) PM's. bestPMeva
Congratulations JuliaGillard ......
LouiseBeaston And what are our other former PMs doing 🤔 nursing their bruised egos
Gillard was one of our best PMs but surely a biomedical scientist would be better suited for this role? Or at least someone who has shown a life long interest in science
DrRimmer Don't think she would call it her charity 🤔
Great social justice values. A fabulous leader and always pushing the boundaries for improvement.
CorruptNSW Still looking bonnie JuliaGillard
That will be challenging viz 'big pharma' issues.
Gillard investigation = cover up 🙄
What is she not in jail yet...paid to the Clinton foundation over 500 million into this scam and is on the board ...Australia taxes ..jail if I was in..

That's great news. Congratulations JuliaGillard.
Yeah, because 'charities' have investment portfolios of 50 Billion.
It’s not Gillard’s charity. How about trying for just a smidge of accuracy in your reporting?
Former Prime Ministers Gillard v Turnbull Who should be more admired for their life after politics?
Julia is all class. Our second best PM (after Gough). Managed to negotiate and hold together a minority government in the face of relentless pressure and misogyny from Abbott and the Murdoch press. Not helped by Rudd white-anting her the whole time.
An excellent appointment. She has been doing a great job at Beyond Blue. Missed as PM JuliaGillard
Show those ex Labor ministers that there are alternative employment opportunities after political life in Australia and that is not a lazy job with the CCP.
Well done Julia, you are a true chancer! As seen be your tenure as PM.
Who did she steal the job from this time?

Airlines and airports adopt new measures to get passengers flying ahead of a coronavirus vaccineAirlines and airports have begun taking steps to ensure air travel can ramp up again before a coronavirus vaccine is found. A coronavirus vaccine is months away? Do you have inside information? Too soon for international flights. 12 hours to get a test result. System and process around it. There is no reason why travel should not be reinstated immediately. It’s all politics of fear and control

Deputy medical officer says all coronavirus tracing app privacy concerns 'are taken care of'The deputy chief medical officer says privacy issues regarding the COVIDSafe app have been solved, as parliament nears passing laws to boost protections. Thought privacy was never an issue, man ScoMo has the biggest nose. No wonder we can't trust this gov, endless lies!!! How does a medical expert comment on digital security? Will our CTO (oh that’s right, we don’t have one!) be commenting on emerging Covid-19 symptoms? The LNP has No Integrity and my trust in them is 0. Bring on a Federal ICAC and I might consider the app
