Prime Minister Scott Morrison is preparing to convene the nation's MPs as soon as possible to legislate the Coalition’s $158 billion income tax cut package, as he waits on fresh seat results to determine whether he will form majority government or have to negotiate for power in a hung Parliament.

"I think there’s clearly a mandate there [for the Coalition] and I have indicated that was my preference anyway during the campaign," she said, making clear she would support Mr Morrison’s government. Labor began the campaign with 69 seats. The AEC estimated Labor was leading in 68 seats late on Sunday.

Treasurer Josh Frydenberg set out the government’s plan to legislate its tax cuts, as pledged in the April 2 budget, so that the gains could flow to workers from July 1. "We want to bring Parliament together, the Labor Party have already said they will support that legislation, so it will have bipartisan support, so let’s get this legislation passed so that the Australian people get their tax cuts."

Scott Morrison cautions Tony Abbott over 'partisan' Bob Hawke tributeThe Prime Minister said he hoped Liberals would not be partisan in their treatment of Mr Hawke who he described as a 'unifier'. michaelkoziol It's almost as if Scott Morrison believes he will still be Liberal Leader if he loses or at the next election if he wins. michaelkoziol I can see nothing wrong with this statement by Abbott and Hawke's wholehearted support of Israel is certainly not true of today's Labor Party. In fact this is one of many differences you can find in Hawke's views and today's Labor. michaelkoziol Seriously! What Fools are voting for this clown in Warringah?

Donald Trump no 'dope', it seems, as refugee deal puts heat on Scott MorrisonHe declared the refugee swap agreed by Malcolm Turnbull and Barack Obama a stupid deal. But the revelation that two alleged murderers were settled in Australia shows Donald Trump may have had the last laugh. ABC does a 180ᵒ turnaround from its standard position of acceptance for all refugees & encouragement of open borders, simply to own Morrison & the govt. Hypocritical. The USA has no active battleships so they literally can't have deployed any, please issue a correction. We know of just 2 of these people. Trump didn't take in hundreds of people just to get rid of 2. There must be a lot more we took in. Who are they and *where* are they? SlowMo & Dutton have a lot to answer.
