Albo here to win Swan, Pearce and Hasluck.
It was a whirlwind five hour assault on three federal Liberal held seats in Western Australia that Anthony Albanese hopes to steal on Saturday night.
Swan, Hasluck and Pearce received a visit from the Labor leader, his entourage and the touring media army as a $150 million was committed to improve surgery coverage and facilities at Bentley Hospital.
Mr Albanese said his government would ensure the hospital had six new surgical theatres, two procedure rooms and a 24-bed surgical ward.
"This surgery centre will make an enormous difference," Mr Albanese said.
Swan is currently in Liberal hands with former journalist Kristy McSweeney trying to retain the seat after Steve Irons retired from politics.
Campaigning alongside Premier Mark McGowan, the federal Labor leader was soon asked by reporters why he wouldn't support the Scott Morrison plan to allow younger Australians to draw on their superannuation fore the purposes of buying their first homes.
"The government in its desperation has come up with a thought bubble yesterday that, according to itself, has not been modelled," Mr Albanese said. "They have no idea what the impact will be."
After announcing the policy on Saturday, Mr Morrison has argued the superannuation is not the government's money to deny access to. He said Australians could invest up to 40 per cent of the superannuation, capped at $50,000 to help get into a home.
"The only way that you're going to be able to get access to your superannuation, your money to help you get into a housing market is by voting Liberal or National," he said.
"The Labor Party will never let you do it. They don't think it's your money. They think it's the government's money or it's the superannuation funds' money. No, it's yours, and we want you to use your money to buy your home."
This week's visit to Western Australia is expected to be Mr Albanese's last before Saturday, and his decision to only target Liberal seats suggests he's confident of holding the five Labor seats.
Mr McGowan was using his popularity to help the Labor cause by shouting down the Morrison superannuation plan.
"The idea that we take money out of superannuation just handicaps people when they head for retirement, and secondly, it vandalizes the national economy," the premier said.
"Superannuation schemes invest in productive activity across Australia. Businesses have super invested so if you take money out of superannuation, you're basically taking away the productive capacity of Australia."
Mr McGowan again cautioned Morrison government Defence Minister Peter Dutton against talking about "war" with China, saying foreign navy ships have the right to sail through exclusive economic zones.
Mr Albanese also visited a daycare centre in Ken Wyatt's Liberal seat of Hasluck before heading to the hotly-contested seat of Pearce, which was held by Christian Porter before he announced his resignation.
