Description: It won't be today – but some time in the next two weeks the Prime Minister will call the election. He's hoping the cash hand-outs, petrol excise cut and the barrell of money for regional infrastructure in Tuesday's Budget - will be enough to put the Coalition back in the race. That – and a much sharper focus on Labor's plans for office. To that end – Anthony Albanese immediately backed all the Budget goodies – while pledging further spending to lift standards in aged care. But as Scott Morrison prepares to fire the starters' gun on the campaign – there's one major hick-up. An internal Liberal Party brawl over pre-selections is still before the courts – and spilled over into an extraordinary attack in parliament on the Prime Minister's character.
