        Liberals have tripled the debt in 5 years and declared "debt and deficit disaster solved." If you believe political propaganda, then no facts will convince you. And the massive debt surge under the Liberals is an easy fact to find.

        Because the senate refuses to overturn the expenditure legislated by Gillard when she was PM. The LNP government, despite this, have nearly balanced the budget. The economy has turned and unemployment has dropped to historically acceptable levels.

        This from a broadsheet-tabloid that claims climate change is crap. A Murdoch rag still opposed to the #CARoyalComm. A partisan publication which constantly quotes Judith Sloan as an economist when she's an unconvincing RW propagandist. Try harder boys, try being honest. #auspol

        Just two claimed that. What about all the others. I for one do not believe it. Bill Shorten is way more astute than Scott Morrison. I believe Labor.

        Shorten and Bowen. Not to be trusted. They are only out to protect their muslim voting base, not everyday Aussies. They will sell us out to foreign debt even faster than Morrison. Time to vote OUT the majors. Preference them 1st, 2nd and 3rd LAST
