Mark Vaile was the one who finally told Ascot Capital that they had to honour their lease but he didn't do it willingly. That was nearly ten years and three prime ministers ago now.
Peter Garrett was the one who signed off on all the clearing of the pristine bush wildlife sanctuary at Jandakot which was not originally intended for development. Amazing what you can do with a "minor variation" to a master plan and enough incentive to turn your back on all your principles.
