Two interesting profiles of Senator Penny Wong, Minister for Climate Change and Water - SMH and The Age.

Over the course of last month's election she served as Labor's federal campaign spokeswoman, proving to be articulate and surefooted; on being asked anything about her private life, however, she gets tongue-tied.

She seems genuinely puzzled by the idea that anyone would be interested in the fact that she is Australia's first lesbian cabinet minister, and the first Asian-born cabinet minister, for that matter.



I think she's going to be one to watch, potential leadership material, if this country is grown up enough.
