Hockey pulled out of third debate: Bowen TREASURER Chris Bowen says coalition counterpart Joe Hockey has reneged on a third debate with him before Saturday's election. The pair have already debated on the ABC's Q&A television program and at the National Press Club in Canberra, with a final face-off expected this week. "Mr Hockey has pulled out of the (third) debate, which had previously been agreed," Mr Bowen told reporters in Sydney on Monday. What have you got to hide? Mr Hockey has said he would provide voters with a "consolidated list" of the coalition's policy costings before election day. Mr Bowen queried what a consolidated list was and said Mr Hockey should say now where the coalition will cut spending. Where are the costings, where's the detail, where are the cuts? Mr Bowen asked. Labor is also asking why some journalists are being shown the Parliamentary Budget Office (PBO) costings of some coalition policy. "This isn't transparency, this isn't being up front with the Australian people," Mr Bowen said. Asked if the latest Newspoll showing Opposition Leader Tony Abbott ahead of Kevin Rudd as preferred prime minister was the death knell for Labor, Mr Bowen said: "People focus on the issues in the last week of the election campaign. We have got a good story to tell. We had a very compelling story to tell yesterday at our campaign launch and I thought Kevin Rudd put a fantastic foot forward for the reasons for the Labor party to be re-elected. Mr Bowen was unable to attend the launch in Brisbane because of two commitments in his McMahon electorate in Sydney. He was asked on Monday whether he would run for the position of opposition leader if Labor lost. You are getting way ahead of yourself. We are running to win this election," he said.
