so lame, the link to 'achievements' was removed after links to tunnel and bell tower were added, so clearly you were offended by ther critisism on the 'swan bells'link .lame. so very very very lame. perhaps you were offended by the term 'achievements' as in reference to the bell tower this word may be inappropriate. i'm not gonna revert it yet but i think you should do it yourself. would you say it was NPOV to call the GST a 'john howard' acheivement? or would you also say that was ONLY a 'liberal' party achievement? i think you could safely call it a john howard act, (especially considering the treasurer has recently disowned it).

how come it never bothered you before the links were added?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Scottmcdonald (talk • contribs).

Edits like this will be reverted because they seem to be there solely to make a point rather than inform the reader. An achievement section is OK but I felt that it was stretching it to say he was responible for the construction of the northbridge tunnel and the narrows bridge expansion - these projects were on the board for years, long before he came into office. I'll give you the belltower one though - it's definitely worth mentioning. As a general principle though, I'm unsure about giving credit to an incumbent premier for capital works or ecomomic reforms that occur during his term - unless they truly are his own ideas and this can be verified. Feel free to edit the article as it now stands rather than reverting to an old copy, as other information has ben added since. Please though, remember to keep a neutral point of view. -- Ian ≡ talk 05:29, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
