Shock at Donald Trump's treatment of Turnbull: 'This is not the way to treat an ally', page-80

" But he then realised the error of his ways and went back to his successful policy. "

Yeah spot on,if gillard hadn't knifed him, I'm of the view the U turn would have being much sooner. The cost of little Johnnies policy was $ 500 K per person, the temptation to reduce costs clearly overrode the existing policy at the time.

Now the big question about little Jonnies GST debacle ,is how much money was misappropriated away from WA to the betterment of the other states and Territories, since the inception of the GST.?

While " Asylum seekers " and GST may be poles apart, they both required Government Imprimatur and enabling legalislation, perhaps all Government Policy initiatives should have a review period enshrined in the legalisation, thus a safety mechanism is in place, of course this would be just too much common sense.
