NYT reports on the Kevin Rudd-for-Julia Gillard swap. The most remarkable thing about the switch for me was the rapidity of it. I’d just learned Gillard was challenging Rudd’s party leadership and, in effect, his premiership the night prior and before the next day was out, she’d won the vote and bagged the big office.
My sincerest hope for Ms. Gillard is that she’ll snuff out the scary internet censorship laws being discussed in Australia.
