Was that when Gillard's office tried to pull a shifty and politicise a trip Abbott had already booked well in advance of Gillard?
I can't believe that issue needs to be brought up again like it carries any weight against Abbott.
I'm surprised Gillard didn't just send her body guard to Afghanistan to represent her just like she was reported to have done similar with a defence meeting.
As for the issue that was cause for this thread, Gillard and Swan fall into the category of self appointed advice givers to the EU on account of their ability to raise debt levels here. They therefore fall into the category of those who should pull their heads in ... the latter is most likely Gillard spin.
