I came across this on the Women's Electoral Lobby's website. If I were blonde, Anglo-Saxon and live in Melbourne I would have joined them:

50s Houswives Fan Club

The Mothers of Intervention, a feminist lobby group for mothers is hoping to stage a media stunt featuring 'The Lyoness' Forum' with our venerable and rather nostalgic Prime Minister, out on the federal election campaign hustings.

We are dressing up as a 1950s housewives Howard fanclub, with rubber gloves, and chasing Mr Howard down the street. If we catch him we will shower him with kisses and tell him how much we love going back to the 1950s.

The Mothers of Intervention website is almost operational.

If anyone wishes to take part in this event in Melbourne, or organise one elsewhere, please contact Liz Conor on 03 9481 1180 or [email protected]

A media contact can be obtained through Liz.

[PB: Melbourne listeners of Community Radio 3CR can hear Liz Conor and others on the program 'Radio Mama' Thursday nights from 6pm.]
