I Meant What I Said At The Time, PM Says Of No Carbon Tax Promise

Speaking at the National Press Club in Canberra, the Prime Minister said she couldn't “unsay” what she said before the election, when she declared “there will be no carbon tax under a government I lead”.

She said she meant what she said, because an ongoing carbon tax “was not what I had in my mind as the future for our country”.

Attempting to make a virtue of the difficulty of her political plight, Ms Gillard said reform never came easily.

I very much doubt anything done by government runs on time.

I was going to take the new baby walking everyday. She is three weeks old and I still have not done it.

Don't fret purple she will walk much faster when she is 1. :^O

The Lib NBN policy is a big negative for me.

Me too. It was slaughtered by the mainstream media.

Things change according to what is happening at the time.

Newman in Queensland has broken every promise he made before the election. If not all than just about all. So no complaints about him. Oh yep LNP, silly me.
