'You're a space invader': Bill Shorten and Scott Morrison clash in fiesty debate | CroweDM
The competing values of two aspiring leaders were made clear in the first minutes of their election debate on Friday night when they began a long tangle over tax.
Morrison's tactics were to goad Shorten into a reaction, to keep asking questions and try to put his rival on the defensive. “We’re talking about retirees, we’re talking about mums and dads, we’re talking about nan and pop,” he said. “It’s not a tax,” he said of the change to the tax refunds. He described the change instead as the removal of a concession that could no longer be afforded.
