And 2 budgets are prepared every year, the May budget and MYEFO, the mid year review usually in December.

If he is in a coalition government with the Greens I shudder to think about what that second budget would impose on Australians . Death Duties, increases in GST, CGT or "anything that moves" to fund the Greens extreme left agenda. 


The Tories do that every single time. It's as reliable as the sun rising.Wink

There seems little doubt if either the ALP or the Coalition were lead into this election with alternative leaders the opposing party would be advantaged. Take Elbow for example. He was clueless about the cash and unemployment rates. Would you trust a doctor who did not know normal body temperature or an accountant who did not know income tax rates ? Recently when pressed about his property holdings Elbow handballed to Jason Clare and earlier this week he fled questions about his policy costings. As former NSW premier Neville Wran once said " boys from Balmain do not cry ". Seems out west in Elbow's territory, a dummy spit is quite acceptable. Is that how Australians expect an aspiring PM to act ? 
As for Morrison, whist he has that smirk on his face, he will continue to put voters off side and must be costing the Coalition votes.

I dont believe Albo didn't know those figures Bob, he had a brain freeze we all experience at times when put on the spot. Dont underestimate the ''he's one of us'' factor with Albo. Remember Trump?

Will they give him a Q card or spread sheet when he is asked a question on the spot ? Like Tanya the other day when she did not know the basis of the threshold for income ( gross or taxable ) for a first home buyer eligibility for the ALP 40 % home loan grants scheme . To her embarrassment , moments later, she was given a Q card, could have been a spread sheet, by an advisor so she could provide the answer, mind you, to the ALP's own program.

Scummo often walks out on pressers when the questions get uncomfortable.

"Scott Morrison has abruptly walked away from a press conference after being grilled by journalists over an issue plaguing the government."

"Prime Minister Scott Morrison abruptly called time on a press conference today, after facing pointed questions about Australia’s responses to climate change and his personal reaction to the ongoing bushfire crisis."

I constantly have to point out to poor old one-eyed BB that there are two sides.Wink

 He was quite impressive in his presser, this morning.

 I enjoyed his put-down of the journo who attempted to pigeon-hole him. 

 He's still fey, but becoming entertaining.

KK is getting desperate by the day in her attempt to win the seat of Fowler in which she has been parachuted by the ALP to get into the House of Reps. The Australian Electoral Commission has ordered her to remove a misleading poster which asserts that her popular independent rival, Dai Le, is a Liberal.

The AEC sent a stern legal letter to Keneally’s campaign on Thursday warning of potential police action if they did not immediately remove “a social media post, physical poster (corflute) and a text message” falsely claiming Le is allied with Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

The letter said the AEC considers the campaign material to be potentially in breach of Section 329 of the Electoral Act which prohibits anything likely to mislead or deceive voters when casting a vote.

But at 11.18am Friday, at least a day after initial warnings from the AEC to the campaign, corflutes depicting photoshopped photographs of Le and the PM were still displayed prominently at pre polls in the electorate.
