the media narrative is solidifying. I’m hearing that bad economic and national security news - reportedly occurring independently of disastrous Coalition leadership in both (all) areas over these 9 years - might (as opposed to voters voting) enable Labor to scrape into power.
disastrous economic and national security outlooks are made to serve press narratives: journalists frame the inevitable result of Coalition governments as a shock upset to the garbage tropes they falsely attribute to 17 million voters and love to repeat at every opportunity.
waiting to see what press gallery journalists say about a week of Labor front benchers being provided - by newsroom bosses - with something resembling air time parity with the Coalition. If they concede it maybe turned out well for the Labor campaign, the switch is in.
Exhibit A. The monthly or quarterly release of headline economic figures - unemployment, inflation, the $1.2 trillion and climbing national debt, RBA interest rate movements - are not “sudden”. This is Liberal Party #CampaignComms. 
there is one prediction I am game to make: Scott Morrison can not and will not survive as prime minister. Nobody with the power to make it happen wants to form government with him at the helm. Only the religious rump still support him, and there is nowhere near 76 of them.
