Julia Gillard says Hillary Clinton is history or something.

Julia Gillard says Hillary Clinton is history or something.

Tuesday, 16 August 2016

Thanks to Underminder for the tip!

Earlier today we mentioned this rendering of history by The Great Educator, Chairman of the Global Partnership, Patron of the Campaign for Female Education, Caller of Found Misogyny and firm believer in the rights of every child (particularly the girl ones) to an education.

How's that history stream going Ms Gillard?
