a lot of mud clinging to gillard

What a strange coincidence that after all this time, up to 17 years, that the day Gillard makes a jerk of herself on the Sky interview that S & G come out with the very craftily worded statement in what appears to be an attempt to support Gillard.
Well one has to think "what a bloody coincidence" the phones must have been ringing hot after that interview!
Now if you read the wording it clearly states "permission has been given by Julia Gillard"
Well if that is the case, why doesnt she give permission to release the taped and documented interview quoted by one of the former partners in Saturdays papers.
If she did nothing wrong and it is as she is making out this would clear the air once and for all, its what any innocent person would do to clear the air.
But if you have something to hide that would be the last thing you would want to surface.
The hole is getting very big now, Julia has a lot of mud clinging to her, I for one wont be hanging by the .... Waiting for her to give permission to release the records of that interview.
Expect a lot more to come, it is not over by a long shot,
Alh.
