Prime Minister: this morning, New South Wales Premier, Chris Minns, defied Labor's failed policy on illicit tobacco. He said:

It's in the black market, it's being organised by criminals, it's not working. It's the opposite of the intended policy.

When will the Prime Minister get his head out of the sand, start listening to the New South Wales Premier and join with the coalition to crush the organised crime gangs?
