He would have signed up a long time ago if Gillard had listened to him in the first place and agreed to an increase in the Medicare levy to help pay for it.    The only reason he is agreeing to it now is because Gillard "changed her mind"    To call this a win for Gillard is a joke...

It sounds like you really have something against Gillard.

The joke is not on Gillard.

What happens to Abbott's no confidence motion now the states have signed up and he has said he will support the policy?
