Former Prime Minister Julia Gillard has been put in charge of a new institute for women’s leadership, and has used the opportunity to express renewed frustration about the sexist attitudes faced by female politicians. The Turnbull government is considering a $400 million a year cut to the overseas aid budget that would reflect the economic growth of some neighbours but still send Australia's overall contribution to an all-time low Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott says he'll be getting on with his usual commitments rather than gloating when the next Newspoll comes out. Next week's Newspoll is likely to have the coalition trailing Labor for the 30th poll in a row.
