Australia: Taxpayers billed $800,000 for feminist guru Deborah May to teach politicians to be fair

Article here. Excerpt:

'A FEMINIST guru is being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to teach Federal public servants to be fairer to women in the workplace — and she’s offered a session to Tony Abbott.

Work coach Deborah May, who provides awareness training in unrecognised bias, has been hired by the Commonwealth’s most senior and male-dominated departments, including Prime Minister and Cabinet, Treasury and Finance.

Taxpayers have forked out more than $800,000 in the past five years for Ms May’s lectures, with Treasury regularly booking sessions. In their latest contract, which ends next month, beancounters will pay Ms May almost $150,000 for training.'
