	Interview: John Howard
		JOHN HOWARD: Well, I understand that and I don't want to be unkind to Bernie Fraser, but I mean, he was the governor of the Reserve Bank when Paul Keating made that infamous remark that he had the Reserve Bank in his pocket.
		JOHN HOWARD: Laurie, I would rather give my preferences to a party like that than I would to the Greens, who are in favour of abolishing the private health insurance rebate, or in favour of massive tax increases.
		JOHN HOWARD: Laurie - Laurie, there's a very simple issue involved here, and it's just this: that if you ever had a situation where another country were unwilling or unable to act to prevent an attack that would claim Australian lives, I would always as Prime Minister take that action as a last resort.
