Pre-election "There will be no carbon tax under the government I lead" came unequivocally and without qualification from Gillard before the election.
Post-election "[People] voted for Labor members committed to pricing carbon, they voted for some independents and a Green member, many of whom are committing to pricing carbon," Gillard said.
"I believe in pricing carbon; it's the right thing to do for this country's future.
"I am not going to risk Australian jobs in the future. And I will work with people of goodwill, voted for by the Australian people, to get it done."
Blatent liar. Strap her to the buoyant actuator I say!
