I am told she is just sick of it.

I'm sure she's sick of it, as we all are, there's no where fror her to go, she can see it through to the end but she may not have the ticker for that now the result is already a fait compli...........
I have been awoken from a slumber on the verandah of the hotel, in full rush hour traffic here in Townsville by a contact in Sussex St.
The word is about that there will be a "managed" change in the leadership of the Federal ALP.
Apparently Julia is sick of it all.
We do live in interesting times.
I am back to the verandah, the hum of utes is soothing to the ear.
Let us see what eventuates.

Oh here's a news flash...Tony Abbott wins the leadership ballot by 1 vote...Slippery Pete's vote.
She is dead in the water. As Richo said;
"This all amounts to a double bunger for our hapless prime minister. Maybe she could survive one of the Craig Thomson and Peter Slipper scandals, but not both. They ensure that she is permanently engulfed in a bad smell. That odour permeates through her every utterance and every policy announcement. It would appear that no amount of perfumed spray will kill the stench."

The federal Labor Party is once again about to go through a period of leadership instability as speculation mounts about a possible challenge to the Prime Minister just two months after she comfortably dispatched Kevin Rudd's bid to return to the top job.
This time disgruntled MPs aren't only plotting a possible removal of a prime minister. If Julia Gillard goes, so should a number of senior ministers who shielded her from Rudd's challenge the first time around.
Wayne Swan, Stephen Conroy, Nicola Roxon and Tony Burke are just four members of the Cabinet who would find it near impossible to work for Rudd were he again to become prime minister, given what they said about him in February. And there are others.

EMBATTLED Labor MP Craig Thomson is set to quit the Australian Labor Party and sit in parliament as an independent.
It is understood that Prime Minister Julia Gillard last night asked him to stand aside. Ms Gillard will hold a press conference this morning in Canberra to make the announcement.
The move comes as Mr Thomson will attempt to distance himself from the government with the potentially damning release of a Fair Work Australia investigation into his alleged misconduct during his time as the Health Services Union boss.
The Daily Telegraph believes Mr Thomson will continue to vote with the Gillard Government and will back any movement to quash any no-confidence motions in the government and the speakership of Peter Slipper, leaving Julia Gillard's narrow grip on power intact.
This is just a showcase for Gillard to shore up support.
I posit the notion that it is impossible for any media entity, no matter how grovelling, biased etc, to do the P.M. a favour by giving her air-time, no matter how obsequious the interviewer or audience.
Gillard is such a empty-headed fake, that the only service that can be done her is to present her less.
I watched for about 5 minutes, suppressed the urge to throw up, and switched off.
