Birmingham talks Medicare, childcare delay, pollies’ perks and SA danger seats
One-quarter of the way through the federal election campaign, we’ve seen further debate on Medicare and a promise to cut down on pollies’ perks.

And on childcare, the minister confirms there won’t be any legislative relief for parents until at least 2018.
