From the SMH, an overview of Howard's likely moves now he has "the keys to the kingdom". I'd like to know where Family First are getting all that money from.
Coming up: Reclaim the Night on Friday 29 October. There'll be women-only* events all over Australia protesting men's sexual violence*. In Sydney, gather at Town Hall at 6.30pm for a March to Hyde Park at 7pm.
Also coming up: the SIEV X memorial art exhibition, remembering the death of 353 asylum seekers (mostly women and children) in an attempt to reach Australia by boat in 2001. It'll be on display in Sydney from 26 - 30 October from 10am to 4pm daily at Pitt St Uniting Church. Lots more info about the memorial project at the Web site.
In other news, Nigeria has sentenced two more women to stoning for having sex out of wedlock. I'll keep an eye out for action to take on this.
