PRIME MINISTER SCOTT MORRISON
Win: Mr Morrison swayed the audience by questioning the cost of Labor's policies, highlighting the lack of detail on costings. The prime minister noted that early voting has begun, and Australians deserve to know the full details from Labor now.
Loss: The prime minister lost out to Labor leader Bill Shorten when it came to climate change and Clive Palmer. The opposition leader was applauded for saying solar panels were an investment for the future and when noting how the coalition were helping Mr Palmer and One Nation get into parliament.
LABOR LEADER BILL SHORTEN
Win: Mr Shorten said not acting on climate change would have a greater cost for the economy in the future, making the point that parents shouldn't be passing on a worse environment to their children. The audience welcomed his critique of Mr Palmer and his attacks on the coalition doing a preference deal with the controversial billionaire.
Loss: The Labor leader was unable to put a figure on the cost of his changes to the tax system and his emissions reduction target, which left some of the audience members questioning his policies.
