All politics aside. Julia arrived in Australia as a sickly child aged six, and later became prime minister of the nation!!!! That is a truly remarkable feat!! WOW!!!!

Want this nonsense to end? Step 1 ABC STOP FEEDING THE NARRATIVE. By covering this, Annabel Crabb you just fed the narrative. YOU legitimised the criticism about female dress by giving it air time. "What do you care?" If the discussion is legitimately illegitimate then don't continue to give fashion air time. And you waste public money reporting it.
