Immigration has been front and centre this week. What have we learnt? One Nation is fully focused on ending mass migration in Australia and has a plan to do so. Labor are divided on the issue and continue to offer nothing more than smoke and mirrors and, at best, tinkering on the issue. As for the Coalition parties? Who knows. They’ve become an irrelevance to the debate.

When they came to government, Labor said migration would be 235,000 this year.
Then they moved the goalposts in May this year and have blown past that figure by 60,000.
Labor still plans to bring another million migrants in over the next few years. That's if their "forecasts" come true.

We will restore living standards, ease pressure on housing and essential services and bring population growth back to a sustainable rate.
Another day spent pearl-clutching by the uniparty. We will always be fully focused on the concerns of everyday Australians. They are at the heart of every policy we develop.

Malinauskas believes cutting mass migration is “madness".
We’ve imported nearly 2 million people in five years and somehow still have a skills shortage.
Maybe we didn’t bring in the right people. Or maybe mass migration was never the real solution.

The reason people have stopped trusting big business is because too often they defend the indefensible.
Like continuing to flood the country with mass migration to prop up their bottom lines at the expense of yours.
