    The just revealed Australian Federal Budget is being criticised as an election sweetener

    The just revealed Australian Federal Budget is being criticised as an election sweetener


    The Treasurer's announced tax relief for households.

    Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is yet to call the election - expected in coming months.

    Political commentator Steve Price says the hand-out mentality of many Australians will work in Labor's favour.

    Price says he expects Albanese to scrape through, or have to do a deal with independents.
