WHAT THEY SAID ON DAY 14 OF THE ELECTION CAMPAIGN

THE BEST LINE

"The prime minister's job isn't to be the court jester. It's to be the man with the plan, with the answers. I've got the plan and I've got the answers."

- Labor leader Bill Shorten on the prime minister's campaign

PRIME MINISTER SCOTT MORRISON

"Territorians can send Labor a message on 18 May by supporting this wonderful team that is standing with me here today."

- He hopes voters mix state and territory issues with federal ones

LABOR LEADER BILL SHORTEN

- He wants her to explain if she was bullied into approving Adani's groundwater plan

THE SUPPORT CAST

"We in the territory know all too well about budgets being in disarray...we are here to fix things up for the Northern Territory because the territory deserve a lot better."

"There's a party that is supposed to represent rural Victoria and I just feel that so much is falling on deaf ears, and I just feel that we can be the circuit breaker."
