Day one and the insults resume for Julia Gillard

THE first day back in Parliament began with a Nationals MP calling for people to "lay off" Prime Minister Julia Gillard - and ended with members of the public calling her a "moll" and "Ju-Liar".

Ms Gillard had started the day on a high after a small bounce in the latest Newspoll elevated the Government's primary vote from a mortal 31 per cent to a near-death 34 per cent and put her in front of of Opposition Leader Tony Abbott as preferred Prime Minister.

Then there was Nationals MP Darren Chester calling for people to stop their "vicious" personal attacks on the PM, saying the office demanded respect.

But come Question Time and the four angry protesters who called her names said they'd do it again.

The three women and one man were in Canberra for a Consumers and Taxpayers Association rally.

CATA is the group responsible for the "Ditch the Witch" and "Bob Brown's bitch" protests at Parliament House in 2011.

Speaking to The Advertiser yesterday, they said they were unrepentant over the interruption.

"She's unreal kicking us out of parliament; it's our place," Debski Bebski, 35, from western Sydney said after speaker Anna Burke ejected them. "It's our parliament. Why aren't we able to hold parliament to account?"

Linda Jones said she called out "Ju-Liar" at Ms Gillard across the parliament. One of the protesters also called Ms Gillard a moll.

Speaker Anna Burke told the public it was "not a football match".

Deputy Liberal leader Julie Bishop inadvertently posed for photos with CATA organiser Anita Donlon outside Parliament House after the group were ejected.

Ms Bishop said she was not aware Ms Donlon was associated with the group and thought she was there for something else. Ms Bishop said the group's actions were "unacceptable".
