James MassolaJenny Morrison.’s focus in the final week of the 2022 election campaign is clear.The Prime Minister’s visit to a housing estate in Armstrong Creek in the Victorian seat of Corangamite - margin one per cent - was his third of the election campaign and his fifth since December last year.

Morrison chatted amiably with first home-buyers during the visit, noting that while they’d be moving into their new home on Saturday, he’d be pretty busy elsewhere. And he confirmed petrol prices will rise by 22 cents per litre in September - as planned - when the temporary cut to fuel tax excise ends.

Figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics showed the wage price index grew by a lower-than-expected 0.7 per cent in the March quarter, taking the annual rate to 2.4 per cent. It is the highest annual rate since the December quarter of 2018.
