Steve Price breaks down ABC's commentary on budget reply

Sky News host Steve Price looks at the ABC’s 7.30 program’s commentary on Peter Dutton's budget reply and the next election to be held within 12 months.

“So predictably the ABC and its current affairs show, the 7.30 Report, has taken only minutes to show their hand when it comes to the contest of ideas for the next federal election to be held within 12 months,” Mr Price said.

“No sooner had Coalition leader Peter Dutton sat down from his budget speech in reply, than 7.30 host Sarah Ferguson took exception to the slogan Dutton had used in the speech to highlight a cut in migration.

“The presenter ... unless I've missed it, doesn't seem to have the same issue with the government and the PM hijacking the term 'made in Australia' for their grand manufacturing plan making expensive solar panels that can’t compete with China.”
