Labor has dismissed warnings of an economic downturn as 'desperate and dishonest', with Shadow treasurer Chris Bowen slamming Mr Morrison's comments as 'highly irresponsible'. When asked if he was being alarmist by raising the prospect of a recession, the prime minister said, 'I think it's the truth.' Image: News Corp Australia
From the guy who doubled the debt. Excuse me if I take anything this genius says with a grain of salt.
Recession is imminent regardless of alp or lnp
No one believes him
'Prime minister Scott Morrison ramps up his recession rhetoric' . The caption on the screen tonight while Andrew Bolt and guests were denying that Morrison was talking up a recession.
No..it's an economy leap over a cliff.
Our PM is determined to talk the economy down into a recession. Is this the scorched earth strategy as he leaves the building?
But, But we only have 12 years left on this planet hurtling through space 60,000 mph on a galaxy traveling 100x that speed. What a ride. And half the developed world wants us to get off!
Australia is going into a recession regardless, the coalition have guaranteed that, questions Australians need to ask is when everything turns bad do you want a government who will stimulate (Labor) or one that will cut everything at the worst possible time (coalition)
ScottMorrisonMP I’d rather see a recession than to continue waiting in limbo for the ANZ to close my case. Do you know what it feels like to have to prepare 4yrs and retell 4yrs of traumatic events?
Stokes what fears? Surely he is still at the struggling with the screwed up newspaper and kindling stage. No roaring blaze in need of stoking there Sky News Australia -- you try hard nincompoops. auspol
Fear mongering. This is all they have left. Pathetic.
True. So true.
The day they dumped Turnbull we went in the dark .
Q1 2019 GDP print comes out on the 6th of June. If this weeks GDP numbers go negative we could be in a recession less than 3 weeks after the election.
I aggree. Big spending Bill will blow our credit card into space. We need to get our debt down. Stop imagration for at least 5 yrs. Stop the boats and dont give the Greens are chance to start them up again.
It's all the LNP is selling, fear. Totally devoid of ideas. In a state of utter policy paralysis, surrounded by incompetence. Led by a leader who is only keeping the chair warm. VoteThemOut
He’s probably right, like it or not

Scott Morrison warns of economic downturn under LaborThe Prime Minister was careful when asked if he was actually saying Australia could go into recession under Labor. Because his govt is leaving us with double debt, little wage growth and an impending recession? That’s labor’s fault is it? And this would be the gov that removed the debt ceiling and managed to triple gov debt How many more days do we have to suffer these moral bankrupts? They are truly pathetic. Lol ScottMorrisonMP the downturn is in full swing now and it happened under your government.
