Source:The prime minister has doubled down on the Coalition's plans not to introduce new taxes.Scott Morrison's pledge will see $100 billion added to the national debt as part of a 'lower tax guarantee' with no new income, superannuation, business or housing taxes.
Mr Morrison says his new tax guarantee will mean Australians will be $100 billion better off but there are questions over whether this figure represents already legislated cuts. Mr Morrison will head to Darwin later on Sunday for an ANZAC dawn service on Monday, with Labor deputy Richard Marles to attend in Mr Albanese's stead.Ahead of landing in the Northern Territory, Labor has pledged to train an additional 500 Indigenous health workers and invest in life-saving dialysis and rheumatic heart disease treatments.
"Building their workforce through a dedicated, culturally appropriate traineeship program and supporting their capacity to undertake preventative care will save lives and bring us closer to closing the gap in First Nations health outcomes." He joined the Saturday evening service in the seat of Barton - also attended by Greece’s Minister for Culture, Lina Mendoni - lighting candles and speaking with parishioners, before speaking about unity during Easter.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Labor frontbenchers will continue campaigning on Sunday in Sydney before making their way to Darwin ahead of the ANZAC dawn service on Monday.Opposition leader Anthony Albanese is now spending his third day in isolation.In a message on Twitter on Saturday, he posted a photo of himself smiling with his dog, Toto.
sydneypropertyprices Australians are about to face the greatest crisis in recent memory. Asset prices will collapse inline with cost on living debt loads. Cash will be king again.
Lower taxes when hospitals are already under funded? Could this pathetic excuse of a 'government' get any more incompetent!!!
Will he give us an iron-clad guarantee that he won’t cut Medicare? 🤷♂️
More taxes under LNP is normal.
The LNP will promise us ANYTHING to hang on to their jobs... then conveniently renage on their ''promises'' just like they did last time. ''Fool me once, shame on you... fool me TWICE, shame on me ‼️ Morrison's been FIRED from 2 important jobs already. Let's make it a hat trick😍
Climate action by stealth
Labor will implement carbon taxes on the last two refineries in Australia resulting in higher fuel costs , forcing Australian to electric vehicles
Seriously, who believes a word that scottytheliar says? ausvotes

Lowering taxes for his friends and cohorts? The ones that are sitting with billions in Job Keeper and another few billions in Franking Credits, negative gearing, dodging tax through trusts?
Lower taxes for whom, though? I doubt it will be aimed at the bottom 80% of income earners, who are going to lose their LITO next financial year if this mob get their way.
They promise this ever time and taxes remain the same.
The LNP is highest taxing government Australia has had. An they want to lower taxes? Bit late for an April fools joke. AusVotes22
The HUGE difference is that ScottMorrisonMP is a proven liar, whereas AlboMP speaks a lot of truth! Choose Wisely!
You have to wonder what the LNP is going to promise when they can no longer lower taxes because they are running out of the tax income they need to pay for everything else?
It begs the question why just now, why not in the previous 9 years? Announcing something is meaningless unless you actually do it, a federal integrity commission come to mind. Fake pledges from a fake government
Media just focus on money grabber groups in election coverage and not the big issues such as national security, food and energy self sufficiency, new markets for trade away from China, manufacturing and skills.......
'while the Labor Party has promised to hire 500 extra Indigenous health workers' And higher taxes. More waste of taxpayers money.
Well that's a myth. My taxes have only gone up since 2013
Lowering taxes isn’t necessarily a good thing especially when services are suffering and debt so high. 500 indigenous will improve things or a token gesture for the gullible
Our debt to GDP has doubled since 2013.
I will go for lower taxes. Labor once again is dividing Australians by race.
Lower taxes hmmm and destroy Medicare
I would benefit more by voting in a party may follow through with their promises then one that hasn't.
This is the record of the LNP on taxes - always higher than a Labor Government.
Key difference between the SBS wording of 'the government says' and the typical ABC & MSM wording of 'the government will'....the former is journalism ...the latter is being an LNP team player...
ALP still has the better policies.
How are they going to pay off that debt?
Why not 1,000 extra? AlboMP
