It looks likely that the next Federal Government will be a Tony Abbott-led Coalition Government. Mr Abbott promises, if elected, to repeal the carbon tax. Labor may block that repeal, but if they do Tony Abbott has promised a double dissolution. At any rate, if current trends persist the Coalition will control both houses of parliament resulting in no electoral or numerical obstacles to repeal. It's true that four months is a long time in politics, but it's time to consider the Liberal party's policies and their implication.
