The journalists who’ve obviously spent much of the day on a plane, are shouting over the top of each other, much to the PM’s amusement.

So non-Canberra press gallery people, if you yell out, you go back down the queue.

Maybe they’re on a sugar high after loading up on easter eggs.

The presser returns to policy and the coalition’s defence spending announcement today.

Peter Dutton hasn’t been able to defend his defence policy today. This is once again a media release in search of a policy, a media release in search of some detail. He is unable to say where the money would come from, except for saying, confirming, that they will put up income taxes this election campaign is a choice between Labor that will lower your income tax and the Coalition that will increase your income taxes, but that doesn’t cover the amount that they’ve announced as well. So, on top of that, there’ll be more cuts needed. He also hasn’t been able to say what the money would be used for. It’s extraordinary that you make this announcement with a very large figure in the tens of billions of dollars. You can’t say what you will use the money for. You can’t say where all the money will come from. This is an opposition that have not done the hard work, whether it’s defence policy, whether it’s nuclear policy, they can’t explain any of how it would actually roll out. And then they have a team that for most of the campaign are in hiding and haven’t been able to come forward at all. And Mr (Shadown Defence Minister Andrew) Hastie is just one example of that.
