Battle of the budgets begins

As Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese continue their big budget sell, Opposition leader Angus Taylor is gearing up to deliver his budget reply -- and big political and ideological battlelines are being drawn. PK tells Fran and David Speers, as the two budgets and two different visions for Australia take shape, there's a sense of real contest and a "battle for who people can win over".   David says the Albanese Government's Budget is the "most reforming budget" in decades, with previous governments have been resistant to creating "winners and losers".  And in the immediate wash-up of budget night, he says Labor is feeling upbeat that they've "finally got something to fight for". So, will Labor reap the rewards of the political risk? Or will the Coalition's message cut through? Fran Kelly and Patricia Karvelas are joined by David Speers, ABC's political lead on The Party Room. Got a burning question?
