‘Worst campaign I have witnessed': Commentator unpacks the latest in federal election race
Sky News contributor Prue MacSween has weighed in on the current federal election race, calling it "the worst campaign" she's ever witnessed. According to the latest Newspoll conducted for The Australian, the Albanese government has retained a two-party preferred lead of 52 to 48 over the Coalition. Speaking to Sky News host Rita Panahi, Ms MacSween discussed the findings of the poll, which highlighted a growing shift in voter sentiment toward Labor. Ms MacSween argued that the campaign's lack of direction and the Coalition's failure to effectively present its policies have contributed to its declining support. 'When you look at how morally corrupt this whole campaign has been and how inept the Coalition has been in espousing and revealing its policies, one can understand why it's going this way,' she told Sky News host Rita Panahi. 'You have an asleep at the wheel Coalition where you have the leader, Peter Dutton, who used to be a strong leader, the strength we all are crying out for, has become the flip-flop man, the apologist. 'What we're crying out is for leadership, and instead we have these ridiculous situations where we don't know all their policies, they're rolling them out now, half of Australia's on holidays, and totally disengaged. 'It is the worst campaign I've ever witnessed.'
