Scott Morrison made it all about him today as he delivered one of his final pitches. The contrast to Bill Shorten couldn’t have been starker.

Scott Morrison today gave a master class in the critical skill he has absorbed over the past five weeks of non-stop, energy sapping campaigning.

It was an address and subsequent question-and-answer period without a salute to his Liberal Party — the organisation that put him in Parliament and The Lodge — and with no list of achievements, and no specific promise of them. The no-go areas of the prime minister’s final national television appeal weren’t the most extraordinary aspect of Mr Morrison’s appearance. That title goes to his convoluted rationalisation that he was not offering anything fresh to the voters, and that this was good.“The nation’s door to the future stands ajar and we ask the men and women of Australia to vote for change on May 18.

Essentially he was saying things are going swimmingly and change is not just unnecessary but dangerous. And it was ordinary Australians who had the power. “It’s Australians that are the source of our strength. It is them pursuing their own aspirations that makes our country strong.”It was part of Mr Morrison’s appeal to voters as a knockabout suburban bloke whose only exceptionalism might be that he has more baseball caps than most. He was riding the anti-politician sentiment.Mr Morrison had an argument against change, a blemish he identified with Labor.

How Morrison and Shorten give half answers and dodge questionsThe most dramatic exchanges in a long campaign between journalists and Scott Morrison, and Bill Shorten, reveal what Australians still want to know. they tend to hide their bad points n indulgence Labor has not said a pip abt scrapping BCA n to allow CFMEU to run building sites Don’t you dare do the both sides, it’s Slomo who’s the known liar Two things Shorten is avoiding like the plague. What he'll do with the dodgy Adani. And the horrendous decision to allow fracking in the north (or anywhere). And ScumMo....he avoids everything.... with 'but but but...Labor!'.

Big flaw in ScoMo’s re-election pitchThere’s a huge problem with Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s election pitch — but for weeks on end, he’s been trying to pull the wool over our eyes and keep it hidden. qualityquantity, I don't want a barrage of NEW policies that amount to just being spent money.. That said, the Liberals can't win unless ScoMo pitches a huge, bold policy that energises the public like a water infrastructure project or nuclear, then he wins auspol ausvotes2019 The big flaw with “journalists” like Alexis is that they have no brains nor capability to do anything constructive. They live in their “story” fantasy world and have the benefit of publicly propagate their own stupid agenda. Luckily sm exist to expose their idiocy...... Such a ridiculous piece of journalism. Would it be fiscally more responsible to keep announcing spending upon spending like Shorten, or to continue to remind Australians that whilst reforms will be made in particular areas, the Govt still needs to be mindful of our economy.

Morrison and Shorten deliver final pitches ahead of pollsScott Morrison and Bill Shorten are preparing to pitch their contrasting visions of Australia's future ahead of the federal election in two days' time. 9News Yet not a word from you on Under the Liberals Australia doesn't have a future! They have no vision for Australia, just tax cuts, and a strong economy. Which is just more Liberal lies. The only vision Shorten would be thinking about is a gaol cell after he's found guilty of the alleged rape of a girl in the 80's.
