Abbott committing 'fraud' on costings: PM
PRIME Minister Kevin Rudd has accused the opposition of "fraud" after finding a $10 billion black hole in its proposed savings.
Shadow treasurer Joe Hockey revealed on Wednesday $31.6 billion of proposed savings, should the coalition win the September 7 election.
Mr Rudd said with less than 10 days before the election there were now "deep questions" about Opposition Leader Tony Abbott's truthfulness after an independent analysis of the figures revealed they don't add up.

"This is a $10 billion fraud on the Australian people."
