Anthony Albanese will travel this week to the Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia to sell Labor’s message to voters in marginal seats.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will begin the new year with a pre-election campaign blitz across three crucial states as Labor battles to hold on to power despite the high cost of living and sagging poll numbers.
In Queensland, he is expected to visit the Sunshine Coast, Rockhampton, Cairns and Mount Isa, while in Western Australia he will visit the Kimberley before heading to Perth.Albanese, who worked throughout the Christmas and new year period, wants to focus voters’ attention on the possibility of a Coalition government he argues would neglect working-class families and engage in a risky bet to create a nuclear power industry.
“My government cares about Australians. That’s why we are delivering cost-of-living relief while strengthening Medicare and investing in infrastructure, childcare and dignified aged care.”Ahead of the release of consumer price index data this week that is expected to show inflation at between 2.1 and 2.7 per cent in the year to November, Treasurer Jim Chalmers said the government had made “really encouraging progress” at bringing prices under control.
