Accused of dancing around costings, the opposition has drummed up support for its youth crime prevention plan ahead of the Queensland election.
The Liberal National Party on Tuesday appeared to find its groove on day 15 of the election campaign trail, with Jarrod Bleijie even busting a move.
The deputy opposition leader got up and danced to a beating drum as LNP heavyweights bopped along to the Queensland African Communities Council's musical welcome west of Brisbane.
"If I had warmed up, I would have been able to do a better job," Mr Bleijie joked.
The LNP then banged its own drum ahead of the October 26 vote, promising the council more early intervention investment including a reset residential program and crime prevention school in Ipswich.
Ipswich's African community was targeted after a youth was charged with murder following grandmother Vyleen White's fatal stabbing in an alleged car jacking outside a shopping centre in February.
The LNP met with the Queensland African Communities Council on the same day the youth's charges were mentioned in Ipswich Children's Court.
After helping ease post-stabbing tensions, council president Beny Bol said he now wanted both sides of politics to commit to early intervention programs.
LNP leader David Crisafulli and Premier Steven Miles were in tune on one topic on Tuesday.
They are set to consult police and its union on allowing officers to carry out a US-style move that taps a stolen car off the road during pursuits.
The police union has called for the change so officers can arrest offenders during high-speed chases despite pursuit laws changing in 2011 after a spate of accidents.
"We want to find a balance between the safety of officers but sending a message to young offenders that the days of them living in an episode of Grand Theft Auto are a thing of the past," Mr Crisafulli said in the LNP seat of Ipswich West.
Mr Miles said he would consult with the police commissioner on the matter but would prefer to expand the use of tyre deflation devices.
"My first priority is making sure our police go home safe," he told reporters in Labor-held Rockhampton.
Mr Crisafulli had been under fire for not revealing his costings, with Labor claiming the opposition would use cuts and taxes to fund its election commitments.
However, the opposition leader said there would be no new taxes under an LNP government.
The details still remain up in the air with the opposition and incumbent government traditionally not releasing final financial costings until two days before the election.
Mr Crisafulli agreed the tradition should change but claimed his party was being transparent by unveiling the cost of every announcement.
The Miles government still criticised the opposition over what it claimed was $17 billion in unfunded election commitments.
"The only way that David Crisafulli can deliver on his promise of ... not having a fiscal deficit ... is by cutting," Deputy Premier Cameron Dick said alongside the prime minister near Logan.
"That should put a shiver down the spine of every Queenslander."
Mr Crisafulli indicated his commitments would be funded by the operational balance and borrowings.
He will also scrap Labor plans like the Pioneer Burdekin pumped hydro scheme - slated at $12 billion - and consultancy costs.
But Mr Crisafulli kept dancing around costs.
He would not confirm how much less his consultancy costs would be compared to the current $3 billion or the price tag of his alternative small pumped hydro plan.
Mr Miles confirmed his election commitments to date would cost around $8.9 billion, to be funded largely by borrowings.
"We have a clear plan to return to surplus," he said.
