The budget question Anthony Albanese is avoiding answering
The Prime Minister fronted the media every day this week but he was not willing to touch budget reform.
Anthony Albanese appeared jubilant in his final day of campaigning before the election and for good reason. The polls are on his side. But he has continued to avoid answering critical questions about the nation’s financial future.
The Prime Minister's rallying of the troops did not go unnoticed the end of a press conference at a new urgent care centre Brisbane’s Morayfield in the Liberal-held seat of Longman. He gave his most passionate and convincing spiel of the campaign about why Labor should get another term.
“The next three years what we will do is continue to see economic growth, continue to see the benefits that come from a transition to a clean energy economy, continue to invest in the resources sector including critical minerals and rare earths,” Albanese said.
“You wouldn’t want to be any other country in the world other than Australia given the changes in the global economy. We can be incredibly prosperous and set ourselves up for the decades ahead. But we can’t do that by being fearful about the future. That’s another of the distinctions in this campaign. Hope versus fear, optimism versus talking Australia down.”
