Molly, Maternity Leave and The Trouble With ANZAC Day

There are a few things that remain sacred in the Australian landscape. ANZAC day is one of them. So when commentator Yassmin Abdel-Magid suggested that Australians should instead spare a thought for those on Manus Island and in Syria, it went down like a lead balloon. But isn't this the freedom of speech that our ANZAC soldiers fought for? What’s the right amount of Maternity leave to take? Anne-Marie Slaughter, former advisor to Hillary Clinton, says 12 months of maternity leave is too long and it will damage your career. Plus, the Logies moment that divided option: we need to talk about Molly.
