The premiers met the Prime Minister on Friday for the last time before the federal election and so - politics being what it is - that could have been messy. In fact, Tony Abbott predicted the premiers would simply turn up and spruik for Kevin Rudd. But when the business was done, that is not the way the Prime Minister wanted to present it. Yes, the premiers agreed, it was harmonious. All very professional. The Prime Minister was a first class chairman. All very agreeable - if it was not for one of the major election issues - climate change.
