The dust has now finally settled after Australia's general Election. this afternoon
Ms. Gillard announced her Cabinet with no real surprises. Kevin Rudd is
our new Foreign Minister, replacing Stephen Smith, who now heads defence portfolio.
Peter Garrett was not dumped but has early childhood education.
There is a moral there.
I was astounded no Tasmanians were promoted to the front bench.
Senator Nick Sherry has a new portfolio in the outer ministry.
Tony Abbott announces his shadow ministry early next week. No doubt
Senator Abetz will continue in his senior influential role.
Parliament will sit on Tuesday September 28th for 4 days and will be
very different perhaps? Wonder what difference the Independents
will make after their "agreement" with the PM.
