We will restore our standard of living and put Australians first.
Government spending is at a 40-year high outside the pandemic, fuelling inflation, higher interest rates and a cost-of-living crisis. Labor is leaving future generations with more than $1 trillion in debt. And this government is the highest taxing government in Australian history.
Our country needs change. Only the Liberals and Nationals have the strong leadership, strong team, and strong plan to restore Australians’ standard of living and protect our way of life.
“Our vision is for an Australia where anyone, no matter their background, can dream big and get ahead through hard work.”
We will stop Labor’s assault on aspiration by axing every one of Labor’s toxic taxes, introducing the Tax Back Guarantee, and backing small businesses.
Labor’s Budget is an assault on aspiration, and under Labor, the cost of everything is going up. Anthony Albanese’s broken promises on capital gains, trusts, and negative gearing mean all Australians pay more.
Australians are paying the price for Labor’s reckless energy and emissions policies.
Under Labor, power prices are far too high. We will scrap Net Zero and make Australia an energy superpower. We will deliver cheaper power and energy abundance.
The Liberals and Nationals will cut migration and raise standards, while keeping migration below the number of new homes built.
To free-up housing stock and to begin to restore the dream of home ownership, we will cap immigration numbers based on available housing.
We will overhaul our skilled migration program, bringing in the people with the skills that businesses desperately need.
Because of Labor’s out-of-control spending, Australians are paying more for everything due to high inflation and our debt has hit $1 trillion for the first time.
We will establish a Future Generations Fund to pay down Labor’s trillion dollars of debt and invest in long-lasting, nation-building infrastructure – roads, ports, energy and water.
Our team is hard at work developing policies to benefit you and your family.
Our first job is to keep you safe. The world is more dangerous now. So we will build a strong defence force that can act fast and hit hard. We will deliver AUKUS. We will guard our borders. And we will keep our streets safe from crime, terror and foreign threats.
Families know what works for them. So we will give them choice. In childcare, we will back what suits each family, not just one type. In health, we will focus on you and your whole-of-life health. In aged care, we will give respect, care and dignity — and better value for taxpayers.
Every child deserves a great education. We will get the basics right: reading, writing, maths and going to school. We will be honest about how kids are doing. And we will back trades and training, not just university. That way, every young person is ready for a good job and a good life.
Work is the best way out of hardship. It gives people dignity. So we will reward those who work and try. We will let people earn more before their payments drop. We will back work and families over long-term welfare. No Australian should have to beg to get help.
We stand for national confidence. We are proud of our country: our history, our values and the things that unite us. We back the enterprise of our people. And we expect those who come here to embrace our way of life.
Australia is stronger when our regions are strong. Regional Australia fuels, feeds and powers our nation and drives exports. We will back the towns, councils and industries that create secure jobs: with better roads, services, manufacturing, childcare and connectivity. We will establish a $20 billion Regional Australia Future Fund, protect the Murray–Darling Basin, and end Labor’s water buybacks that strip water from farms and towns.

The more Labor spends, the more Australians pay.

The more Labor spends, the more Australians pay.
Nov 4
If only Australians could pay their mortgages with Jim Chalmers’ and Anthony Albanese’s excuses.
We have a Treasurer who can`t kick his out of control spending addiction, and it`s pushing inflation and interest rates higher.
Nov 4
Enough of Anthony Albanese’s lies and excuses. The truth is the more Labor spends, the more Australians pay.
Nov 4
Jim Chalmers won’t admit he’s got a spending problem.
If Labor can`t admit there`s a problem, how can they fix it?
Nov 3
Why won’t the Prime Minister be honest with Australians about his spending problem? Australians are paying more because of it.
We know how to fix the economy. We’ve done it before and we can do it again.
Nov 3
Yesterday’s rate rise didn’t happen by accident.
This happened because the Prime Minister and his Treasurer have completely lost control of spending.
Under Anthony Albanese and Jim Chalmers, government spending is at its highest level in four decades, outside the pandemic. This is fuelling inflation, and driving up interest rates.
Nov 3
Labor blames global factors. But this year alone, Australia has had five rate rises. The Euro Area has had two. The US and Canada have had one.
Nov 3
The more Labor spends, the more Australians pay.
Anthony Albanese, you’ve been called out by the Reserve Bank. No one is believing your excuses. Why won’t you be honest about your spending problem?
The Liberals and Nationals will fix the economy. We will cut taxes. We will deliver cheaper energy. We will take the pressure off interest rates and off your household budget.
We have done it before. We can do it again.
Nov 3
At 4.85% our cash rate is higher than any major advanced economy, and the highest here since 2008.
Nov 3
Australians are paying the price for a government that can`t control spending, can`t beat inflation, and can`t get the economy moving.
Nov 3
The more Labor spends, the more Australians pay.
Anthony Albanese has completely lost control of spending. But he won’t be honest about it.
He won’t tell Australians the truth. He won’t admit he’s got a spending problem.
It doesn’t have to be like this.
The Liberals and Nationals will cut spending. We will clean up Labor’s mess.
We will fix the economy.
Nov 3
Today, the Reserve Bank has raised interest rates again.
Labor is trying to blame global events.
However, the facts tell a different story.
Nov 3
Labor`s out of control spending is fuelling inflation and has forced interest rates in Australia to be higher than any major advanced economy.
Nov 3
The odds of being worse off are high under Labor.
Nov 3
With Albanese in the saddle, it’s a sure bet for a weak economy.
Nov 2
Labor’s reckless spending is adding to demand in the economy and contributing to our high inflation. That makes the RBA’s job harder and puts pressure on interest rates.
