Tax relief is top of the agenda for Scott Morrison's election campaign in the seat of Corangamite, which is held by the Liberal Party with a margin of 0.03 per cent.
The Coalition was forced to defend its tax cuts after modelling from the Grattan Institute suggested the government would have to cut spending by $40 billion each year to make up the promised cuts. However under a Shorten led Labor Government, Mr Morrison says Australians will be slogged $387 billion in taxes. Treasurer Josh Frydenberg has told Sky News on Tuesday that Labor plans to increase tax by two per cent for high income earners.
