Beazley shows his mettle

In Australia, the Labor Party's anti-government sales tax (GST) campaign is not attractive. Kim Beazley of the Labor party has told senior citizens it would add to the cost of funerals. Tough opposition to the tax will not win the election for Labor, by itself, but is vital if the Labor Party is to have any chance to undermine the John Howard/Liberal Party plan for the nation.
