Hi LesPaul, Is that what John Howard, Peter Costello did when they introduced a levy eg the gun buyback levy. They got bipartisan support and good support from the community . The Nationals were'nt too happy though. seems the coalition is unable to show any reciprocal goodwill in the interests of suffering Queenslanders.
Labor probably hopes Abbott will continue opposing the flood levy and by doing so he will alienate many Queenslanders. Its a shame that Tony is adopting this course as ultimately it could bring about his demise.
