Carbon Pricing

My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to her statement:

The question of truth in government is not a game—and it is not my game; it is about … what a government should … say to the Australian people when it is seeking their trust and their mandate at an election. Anybody in the Australian community … would say … that what they want to know before the election is just the simple truth.

Does the Prime Minister still believe that the question of truth in government is not a game? If so, why is the Prime Minister refusing to give the Australian people the final say on the world's biggest carbon tax?
