`:The fact remains that unlike the other states, Crook and the WA Nationals have no coalition agreement, therefore it is churlish and plain wrong to describe them as part of the Liberal/National ``Coalition``. He has said he is a crossbencher. The mining tax, one policy, does not turn someone from a crossbencher to someone who is part of a party/group of parties. He remains his own person. Read Tony Crook. As his vote is not guaranteed and remains independent either way then he cannot come under the coalition total. Crook specifically says not to be included. We are, however, not following his request. We are following common sense.     `
