If Julia was to tak a leaf out of the books of the two most successful female leaders, Helen Clark and that English woman, she would just announce; "This is what we are doing, the decision has been made..", with appropriate glare and frown, no smile.
I've been a leader on occasion in a different field and I learnt that people like to be told, they don't necessarily want options. They respect decisiveness.
At the moment I honestly feel as though the three main 'issues' are in limbo.
1. The mining tax is a mess. 2. The boats are going to keep coming, no plan in place at all. 3. Climate change is as confusing as ever.
