Why????????????????

I've got a good memory, it was you liberal front rowers that refused to back
AN back in 1975 because it was a Labor idea.

Had AN been truly a national system the Labor governments might not have
needed to set up NRC.

Had the Liberals adopted the Whitlam's UPT concept back in 1974 we might not
be stuck with some of the problems (like the 4D) we have now???

"Liberal" Party.  In any other field than politics they would be charged
with misrepresentation of a product. They are Conservatives, so why do they
hide behind the name Liberal???
