Julia Gillard Instagram – The documentary, Strong Female Lead, about my time as Prime Minister, is bound to generate debate and questions.
I haven’t seen it, but I am aware of the content, as of course, I was there.
When I reflect back on my time as Prime Minister, my predominant emotion is one of gratitude for the opportunity.
Being Australia’s first female Prime Minister will always remain the greatest honour of my life.
I live my life according to the mantra we can’t change the past, but we can change the future.
That doesn’t mean the historical record is irrelevant, because it is only by analysing it that we can glean the lessons that will help us shape the best tomorrow.
The Strong Female Lead documentary will play a positive role if it is watched in that spirit, and spurs more gender equality activism.
