Conceived as the love child of the ALP in 1990, by the age of 14 it had developed an surly adolescent belligerence which even the ALP (then in opposition) couldn't tolerate. In 2004 the ALP announced that it would disband the dysfunctional tax sink if it won the coming election, and the conservative government seized the opportunity - announcing they would begin doing so immediately.
