They cop scrutiny over their appearance, their sex lives, their parenting and their portfolios in a way few of their male colleagues do. It's time to call bullshit on the toxic Canberra culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Alongside her own experiences from fifteen years in parliament, Kate Ellis reveals a frank and fascinating picture of women across Australian politics, including Julia Gillard, Julie Bishop, Linda Burney, Sussan Ley, Penny Wong, Sarah Hanson-Young and Pauline Hanson. Kate explores issues like sexism, motherhood, appearances, social media, the sisterhood and, of course, sex. But she also celebrates everything Australian female politicians have achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Wry, candid and provocative, Sex, Lies and Question Time is a powerful call to demand more of our leaders and our institutions. It reminds us we need greater diversity to shape a fairer Australia, where 'women's issues' are everyone's issues. A better parliament means a better Australia. The stakes are high, and the standards should be too.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate Ellis","offers":[{"title":"Good","offer_id":43175516700915,"sku":"8880002589589","price":17.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/products\/9781743796399.jpg?v=1662075041","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/sex-lies-and-question-time-kate-ellis-9781743796399","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
