Julia Gillard has revealed she is knitting a red kangaroo for the first baby of Prince William and his wife Kate.

BUT
Despite knitting for the royal baby, Gillard said she still hoped Australia would one day become a republic.

"There is a real sense of respect for the Queen, so I do think a natural moment to look again (to a republic) will be when her reign comes to an end," she said.

I have missed something here?

What have you missed Lester?

(a) That Gillard is a knit wit?

(b) That there is a push over here for us to become a republic?

It will be interesting to see how that stacks up with some of the other gifts the child will receive. I can see it now,

A toy motorised car from India,
A pair of ice skates from Canada,
A gun from the USA,
Vintage Vodka from Russia,
and a knitted Kangaroo, from the ex Prime Minister of Australia.  :(

Her political judgement is non-existent.  How did she ever become PM???  A so-called republican knitting for the royal family.  What a moron.  Her office specifically requested that particular photo.

I will be throwing a party when she gets the arse, but I won't be throwing one when Abbott becomes PM.
