Speaking live to SBS from Penrith football stadium, Tony Abbott told SBS that public broadcasters will not see any cuts under an Abbott government.

"No cuts to education, no cuts to health, no change to pensions, no change to the GST and no cuts to the ABC or SBS."

The Opposition Leader said he is campaigning "down to the wire" because either side can still win.

"This is like a grand final... there's only one try in it, either side can still win."
