That tax hike is the same old chestnut the ALP roll out every three years in their bid to bring their own heartland to it's knees. Cracks me up really, statistics I am sure would show that the majority of smokers are Labor voters...the water side workers, construction workers and public servants....the good ole ALP usually sticks it into their own then tells them they are for the worker.
Now Mal it appears is going to stick it into the ALP voters...lol
