Description:

"And now, ladies & gentlemen, at last the Opposition parties' tax policies before your very eyes!"

Taking the form of a magic show, this attack ad by the ALP focuses on the Coalition's tax policies, labelled by the announcer as being akin to "voodoo economics" which the ad claims would benefit the wealthy at the expense of the working classes ("battlers" in Australian political parlance)
