Voters are divided about whether or not Labor should stick with an election promise to keep the Morrison government’s stage-three tax cuts, although prime beneficiaries of the change are more likely to argue Anthony Albanese should stick to his word.

Asked about their attitude to election promises in general, 52% of respondents to the latest Guardian Essential survey said it was never acceptable for political parties to break election promises, while 48% said it was OK to break a promise if circumstances change.
