Liberals admit privately that Morrison got it wrong with the paltry budget statement on women, but you won't hear those doubts spoken in public. This is the subject of hushed talk and subtle signals.That's because the Prime Minister is lucky to have a party room of quiet MPs who are thankful for his victory last year. The feral bickering under Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull is over – for now, at least.
Howard did not invent the idea of a women's budget statement. Bob Hawke and Paul Keating launched the first one in 1984. Howard was smart enough to keep it going. The dumb decision to end the series came when Abbott arrived, leading a cabinet with only one woman., filled a policy vacuum in the days after the budget.13 Australian women were subjected to invasive examinations in Doha
Morrison said on Wednesday he "shuddered" at the thought of what the women went through. That is a start, but it will not be enough when Labor is asking questions about what the government does next. "Fewer women than men have voted Liberal in four of the five elections since 2001," says the new report, written by Nick Cater, the director of the Menzies Research Council, and Nicolle Flint, the Liberal member for Boothby in South Australia and one of the government whips in Federal Parliament.Labor also does better at reflecting the community it represents. While 47 per cent of federal Labor politicians are women, the figure for the Liberals is just 23 per cent.
CroweDM Perhaps Morrison could find a few more right-wing women for Cabinet, but he can’t fix the party’s structural problems - he’s part of them. So-called “Judeo-Christian family values” (aka patriarchalism) took over the so-called Liberal Party almost 3 decades ago, with Howard.
CroweDM Oh FFS give it a rest! We demand competent politicians to lead the country, male or female! What we don't want is women being parachuted into positions they are not qualified to do!
CroweDM History & logic clearly attest, imbalance & uniqueness support the greatest advances in science, medicine,& economy. Fiction requires fiction to counter the truth.

CroweDM Yeah- introduce a meritocracy- get a position on merit
CroweDM I think gender diversity is important, but I think the priority should really be to fix the liberal party's corruption and incompetence.
MayneReport CroweDM Need we even read past the headline?
CroweDM Why?
CroweDM Morrison can’t hide the fact that he has no respect for women You can’t change Narcissist behaviour
MayneReport CroweDM Yes he needs more women. Then he can line them and bring them down, one by one, every time he needs a distraction from all the criming his LNP mates keep getting caught for.
CroweDM Are you serious? No really, is this Fucking rubbish the best you got?
CroweDM They roll out the same bullshit every twelve months, best applicant should be the desire, all this nonsense is so boring. All this concentrating on what divides us hasn't done anything to improve society, it all seems to get worse and worse..
CroweDM Get rid of the Morrison government. That outta fix it.
CroweDM
CroweDM Impossible to fix it. Really intelligent women do not belong to the Liberal Party.

CroweDM Should he employ the wife of a convicted drug smuggler or an international that helped NSW labor lose monumentally when she was no one's girl?
CroweDM The title says 'Why' but there was no reason given?
CroweDM Does it matter? They are groomed for agendas.
CroweDM It's not up to the party to determine gender quotas. It's up to the public.
