Mont,
Ken Henry is the head of Treasury in this country. His tax review released in 2010 contained this tax as one of a raft of measures to overhaul the tax system (He is not a politician).
Gillard has put her neck on the line in addressing the tax and the negotiations that take place over the next couple of weeks will test her ability to deal with conflict (albeit one that a small section of the community are directly affected by - wealthy executives and people with spare cash to invest on the stock market). In any case, any new deal signed off by the industry directly disadvantages the Liberals. Do you think they'd seriously consider opposing it in the house with the support of industry? If you look closely at her first speech , it addressed each dot point that the Liberal campaign was attempting to swing people's votes on, and would have made for a very interesting couple of days at Liberal HQ as they quickly changed their presentation for the party federal council meeting in Canberra. A lot of red lines through pages, and the invention of a sparkling new '12 point plan' (or was it 8?) with major announcements like CCTV cameras on all streets etc. LOL! A party without a message that has relied on attacking the government now without anything to attack (for the time being).
Notice how Abbott's colleagues aren't attacking Labor for throwing out their leader..... Now that's thinking ahead!
