Labor has become the party of the rich, the entitled, and the billionaire class and this polling proves it. They don’t stand for battlers or working Australians anymore. If they cared about battlers they’d start by cutting the fuel excise. But they won’t. They’d rein in reckless spending to ease housing pressure. But they can’t. They’d back the productive backbone of this country like manufacturing and mining. But the wealthy elites don’t want them to. Immigration benefits the wealthy, not the battlers struggling to afford a house. Labor loves immigration because it makes their backers rich. Labor have turned their backs on Australians. It’s One Nation that’s stepping up for the workers, the battlers, and those doing it tough. We’ll cut fuel and electricity costs by scrapping wasteful bureaucracy and lowering taxes. We’ll rebuild the industries that made this country strong. And we’ll restore the Aussie values that put everyday Australians first. One Nation stands with the battlers. Albanese bats for the billionaires. Check our Policies onenation.org.au/issues Join One Nation onenation.org.au/join Unite Australia donate.onenation.org.au/unite-australia

John Ruddick MLC - Libertarian
🚨 I have moved a bill to abolish the Department of Multiculturalism NSW. I HATE the policy of multiculturalism and support assimilation - here's why. Most of the immigration debate in recent years has been about total numbers. The government has let in too many migrants too quickly and we’re suffering overpriced housing, overcrowded cities, overburdened infrastructure etc. This is why I advocate for a five-year immigration pause ... but it's only half the story. We also need to have a serious rethink about how we encourage migrants to assimilate into Australian culture. The woke left claim Australia doesn’t have any unique culture. They claim that our culture is “multi-culture” ... but that is logically incoherent and just plain wrong. It’s true Australians have come from many countries, but over the centuries we have developed an Australian identity that is more than the sum of its parts. Contrary to our political and cultural elites, most Australians still like Australia. We like our people, our history, our traditions and our way of life. We do not want our culture to be replaced by a sudden influx of millions of foreigners. Most of these foreigners might be wonderful people, they might bring skills, have fun festivals and spicy foods, and they might be able to tick the “not a terrorist” box on the arrival form … but even if all of that is true, people who like the existing Australian culture (i.e. most of us) do not want to see our culture so casually replaced by a hodgepodge of foreign cultures. That is why the migrants that have arrived should be expected to integrate into our way of life and assimilate into our culture. This is not a radical position. It has worked well with earlier waves of Australian immigration, and the same would be expected from you if you migrated to Japan or Brazil. We don’t need to be pricks about it … the process can take time, and obviously people will remember where they came from … but assimilation is preferable to division and Balkanisation. And yet the government promotes the exact opposite. Rather than encouraging integration, or just leaving people alone to gradually assimilate, the NSW government has an agency dedicated subsidising our differences. Multicultural NSW employs 140 bureaucrats and spends roughly $70 million of taxpayers’ money to encourage new migrants to stick with their old culture. They are literally using our money to ensure that immigration causes more division and sectarianism than it would do otherwise. The agency needs to be scrapped. Afuera! Abolishing Multicultural NSW would not ban people from eating Mexican food or celebrating Chinese New Year or speaking Polish. To each their own. But there’s no reason for the rest of the population to pay for these choices. To rub salt into the wound, NSW Premier Ho Chi Minns then uses the existence of multiculturalism to justify censorship. He has claimed several times over the last year that multiculturalism is not compatible with vibrant free speech. A reasonable person would see this as an argument against multiculturalism, but amazingly Minns uses this as an argument against free speech! The people of NSW and Australia were never asked about this trade off. Instead, the political class has taken our money to subsidise cultural division, and then used that division to justify cracking down on our free speech. This is Orwellian. That is why the Libertarian Party has introduced a bill into NSW parliament to abolish Multicultural NSW and replace it with nothing. I encourage other MPs in other state parliaments to move a similar bill. This bill will come on for debate in coming months. Labor will obviously oppose but will be interesting to see how the Libs and Nats vote. If this repeal bill fails (for now) and taxpayers continue to be forced to fund various ethnic groups etc I encourage the British Australian Community (BAC) to apply for funding. As a general rule, the larger the ethnic group, the more the funding ... so BAC should easily get more funding than all the other groups combined. @LibertariansNSW @Brit_Aus_Com

@GLComputing @MSchoderboeck @OneNationAus You need to see how Labor MPs are late to declare their travel expenses. Absent mindedness? Perhaps. Pauline has now declared her free flights: at least they didn't cost taxpayers anything. Review ALP WA donations from the parent company who organised the election. C'mon!

@MSchoderboeck @GLComputing @OneNationAus Go and check One Nation's books. Audits are done. Check who made donations to WA ALP for their state election campaign. Oh! A parent company of the election organiser. Gina's flights are trivial. Keep nitpicking. You're a joke

We have the policies to make Australians prosperous, healthier, and restore our national identity. The Department of Climate Change is a bottomless pit of taxpayer money, with spending buried across multiple state and federal agencies. Scrap it, and that money goes straight back to Australians. Real family tax cuts, cheaper fuel, and scrapping the beer tax at pubs and clubs. Life should be easier, not harder. With One Nation, it will be. And you’ll get your Australian way of life back.

@GLComputing @Matt_Camenzuli We are not talking about how immigrants are treated we are talking about how they assimilate. Your examples, integrated well, currently we have people being murdered frequently in the streets and home invasions getting reported almost nightly. They are not the same situation

Multiculturalism is flawed and failed. To love Multiculturalism is in fact to love no culture at all. I am proudly Australian, and I am proudly against Multiculturalism. Andrew Leigh is just a divisive dunce.
