Australian politics is a deeply biased self serving gong show at the best of times but last week the curtain got pulled all the way back by Brittany Higgins, a courageous young woman who will reshape our political landscape with her brave public recount of being raped at Parliament House.

There is so very much skycandy banging about this week but it would be remiss of me not to note, laud and generally cheer the Leo moon.
