A reminder to some of the rusted-ons here on HC who are still in denial like Rudd, Gillard and most of the ALP [Champion and Marles honourable exceptions]
The facts are:
. Labor never, ever got a mandate to introduce a tax on carbon dioxide [despite recent attempts to re-invent history]
. on the contrary Gillard campaigned never to introduce such a tax.
. Abbott has a sweeping mandate to repeal this useless impost
----------------------------------
Labor should swallow their collective pride, get out of the way and allow real reform to proceed. Not to do so will have several consequences for Labor.
. voters won't appreciate being treated with contempt by the ALP and will vent that at any by-election
. they will continue being associated with the Greens
. if they get in the trenches now only to have a new Senate wave through the repeal next year, they will look like absolute village idiots!
