Some words of wisdom from country women about Barnaby Joyce
The Owl particularly notes the contribution to this Twitter exchange by Pip Courtney. Anyone who watches her contributions to ABC television on Sundays will know why the Owl considers her to be one of Australia's best and balanced journalists
Memo to Nats from rural women:— Sue Middleton (@Middleton_Says) October 17, 2018
1. We got the vote in 1902.
2. Find your moral compass.
3. You told us to 'put up or shut up'. We put up.
4. The past is a place you don't want to go. Regenerate. Do it NOW@M_McCormackMP @gabriellechan @senbmckenzie @D_LittleproudMP @AgChatOZ
This is what I’m talking about re mooted return to Barnaby as leader. Seriously well connected rural women telling Nats to look forward + not back. Rural women don’t enter the political debate lightly as it is hard to push against culture but it is happening cos they’re cranky. https://t.co/r67fxJNhR4— Gabrielle Chan (@gabriellechan) October 18, 2018
Rural women have been in Canberra all week - from the 2 functions I attended my take is this simmering anger isn’t going away https://t.co/kkzBVlHRbH— pip courtney (@pipcourtney) October 18, 2018
