@SimonBl - The disingenuousness of AJ is beyond belief. He actually claims to have tried to call Julia Gillard, to get her approval of Govt intervention, so that he would not then proceed with the lockout?
However - he must have been the only person in Australia, who apparently did not know that Gillard was totally tied up, right at that very time, in the CHOGM talkfest, and could not possibly answer his call in the time frame he set!!
This arrogant prick must think we are all total f***king idiots, to believe the crap he spouts!!
