The opposition, their supporters of course. Some people are outraged by Priminister Gillard for saying there would be no Carbon Tax but then appearing to change her mind and moving to impliment a carbon price .. yet so many other sources ARE actually truly lying and missrepresenting and muddying the waters
just to help overthrow the government... all the while knowing full well that pricing carbon is something that has to be done, is good policy and they actually agree with it in private - this probably describes
at least 50% of opposition members.
This is I guess one of the down sides of our parliamentary system which is often heavily based on running with and driving public opinion no matter how unrobust, missguided or plain ignorant that drive and view may be.
