Julia Gillard didn't lie. She didn't intend to have a carbon tax. However, when there was a hung parliament she had to negotiate with the independents and Greens. Negotiation involves compromise on all sides, where people change their minds and their policies.
There is a proverb: Only fools and dead men never change their minds. People change their minds all the time.
