yes well she has here own agenda and its political, the opposition leader Abbot is a devout Catholic, and while he does not object to a royal commision, it was Abbott that sugested that not only the Catholic Church be investigated but ALL DENOMINATIONS, which is great because that would include JW.

Actually, if Shadow Treasurer Joe Hockey's comments are anything to go by for the conservatives they were not in favour of an enquiry like this at all.
There has also been some opposition from the Labor side too... some just don't want to see their religion raked over the coals.

Good for Ms Gillard, I wish we had someone as decisive as her in the UK.

This will be very interesting depending how it pans out .This labour Govt. under Rudd/Gillard has stuffed up so many initiatives it has started ,it is an embarassment to any political party previously in power. It is a party of lies, deceit, spin, that I can only compare with the WTB&TS .And yes I am not so naive as to beleive the opposition does not stretch the truth ,but no where near the extent the Labour Party does under Juliar Gillard .
just my 2 cents worth
