My mother worked full time, for 50 years Ms Gillard! We didn't want for any attention either, and our Christmases were a lot happier than they've been for most of us during the past 5 years!

Thank you so much Ms. Gillard. I surround myself with a large family brought up as Christians and not all believe in a God. That's not what counts, it's who you are. However we are all proud to have such wonderful family member's who give love and receive. Hold onto those treasured memories and have a good Christmas to.

Merry Christmas to you and your family, and to all the loved ones in Australia.

Thanks, Julia, for your warm and heartfelt Christmas message. May 2013 bring you the election victory you so richly deserve. It will be the victory of your optimistic and progressive spirit over the negativity and destructive pessimism of an opposition devoid of decent policies. Wishing you strength and good health!

Hope that Julia Gillard and Labor win next years election! Hope that you and your partner Tim and your gorgeous dog have a great Christmas! Your first Christmas without your father will be very hard but he is with you in spirit. What an amazing dad! My dad was the same and he encouraged us to get an education but died 10 years ago. Merry Christmas and good luck for 2013! Win that election. Go Julia

Julia, this is a personal heart felt message to you.
You have had the most powerfull Media mogul "Ruphert Murdoch" history has ever known, dumping a bucket of shite on you every day, determined to make you break, but like Joan of ark you have stood firm against this Tyrant.
Julia your Dad died proud of his daughter, who against the great evils of ignorance, bigotry and misogyny, has become the greatest Prime Minister Australia has ever known.
I am proud that I voted for you and Labor.

The best present you could give this nation is to call an election!

[brandonscherrer]

The PM wished the nation of Australia a merry Christmas, those that posted comments filled with hate aimed towards the PM, why? Those that will post negative comments regarding this should be simply ashamed, for the PM to wish Christmas, and to citizens to post derogatory messages is just absurd, is this really Australia?

[MrAussiebogan]

i hope the states and territories are abolished so that the gillard government can raise the GST without worrying about consulting each state and territory and having to get their approval from each one for the GST to be raised.

[NotChukkov]

1. Triple the tax-free threshold
2. University Startup Scholarship
3. Abolish WorkChoices (As minister)

But here's the kicker, Mr/Ms Canadian, I don't get angry that a leader hasn't spent their whole time in office implementing policies that directly benefit me personally, because I'm not a selfish cunt!
