Party Policies in Australia

Party Policies in Australia. By Geoff Chambers in The Australian.

Some interesting divergences are occurring in the policies Australia’s political parties, as the Overton window widens under the influence of the 80% of us who are not indoctrinated with leftism. A preference cascade is happening.

After the Albanese government abolished average staffing level caps and hired more bureaucrats under the guise of bringing “core work back in-house”, the public service swelled to almost 200,000 staff at the end of last year [compared to less than 150,000 under Abbot], of which 118,300 were women, 76,553 were men and 994 identified as “Gender X”. …

Institute of Public Affairs research fellow Saxon Davidson said “the productive sectors of our economy are getting absolutely smashed by an avalanche of red tape and bureaucracy, which is making it almost impossible to expand, invest, and get ahead”. …

“The Albanese government is defined by two things: Big government through more bureaucrats and big Australia through record migrant numbers, both of which are crushing mainstream Australians. Rolling back the massive expansion of the bureaucracy is critical to boosting investment and securing a thriving private sector that improves living standards at the individual level.”

Pauline Hanson:

Under One Nation, our schools will promote patriotism and encourage young Aussies to love their country, its history and its heritage.

We will not apologise for our history. We are one of the greatest countries on earth, and we will be proud of this.

As it stands, there are too many examples of our history being denigrated by our woke educational establishment. Both the Welcome to Country and self-loathing will be expunged from our schools.

One Nation senators have started turning their backs every morning during the daily Welcome to Country.
