The Coalition 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 Coalition has 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. The Coalition will scrap Net Zero and make Australia an energy superpower. We will deliver cheaper power and energy abundance
The Coalition will link Australia’s migration intake to 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.
A Coalition Government 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 is set to 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.

Government spending is at a 40-year high outside the pandemic, fuelling inflation.
The Liberals and Nationals will put a speed limit on spending – preventing government from spending faster than the economy is growing.

This morning, my Coalition colleagues and I spoke with Reza Pahlavi, a leading voice of the Iranian opposition.
The Islamic Republic is an enemy of its own people, an exporter of terrorism and a threat to Australia and the wider world.
It tortures and executes its own citizens, funds terrorism and continues to pursue nuclear weapons.
But Iran’s future does not have to be its past.
Mr Pahlavi spoke of a free and democratic Iran, a future that can be secured by the Iranian people themselves, through a broad and united movement for change.
The Iranian people deserve freedom.
We are proud to stand with them.

1,100 people a day. That’s one new arrival in Australia every 78 seconds.
That’s the scale of mass migration Australians are dealing with under Labor.
And today, instead of cutting immigration, Labor announced more tinkering around the edges.
Australians are struggling to find a home, pay the rent and keep up with the cost of living.
Labor’s answer is to keep the numbers high and hope no one notices.
Australians deserve lower numbers and higher standards.
So why didn’t Labor cut immigration today?
Sep 17
Labor’s “level playing field” doesn’t look much like one. Fewer homes being built, while more than 51,000 people who aren’t Australian citizens have accessed their 5% deposit scheme.
We’ll axe Labor’s housing taxes, boost supply and limit the 5% deposit scheme for Australian citizens.

Our veterans should never have had to fight for this. We will always put Australians first.
Sep 17
Labor’s mass migration has helped create a housing shortage of around 400,000 homes.
The Liberals and Nationals will lower the numbers and lift the standards.

Pressure from the Coalition has forced Labor to scrap its arbitrary cap on allied health services for veterans and their families.
I want to thank the veterans, their families and the veterans’ organisations who stood strong, gave voice to their concerns and stared this government down.
There are more than half-a-million veterans in this country. Australians who have served in conflicts from the Second World War through to Afghanistan. They’ve served, suffered and sacrificed for their fellow Australians. We owe them a debt that can never be repaid.
The last thing any government should do is force our veterans to pay-up for the treatment they need because of their service.
Labor’s cruel cap says everything about this government’s warped priorities.
Labor puts Australians second. We will always put Australians first.
Sep 17
Great news for our veterans. We’ve scrapped Labor’s appalling cap on their allied healthcare.
Veterans shouldn’t have to fight for their healthcare. Yet they were made to fight again. This is a win for you and your community.
Nothing signals warped priorities more than a government that’s so desperate to find savings it goes after our veterans.
Congratulations and thank you for your service to our nation.

This Labor government is sending Australia into decline with its constant failures. We will fix the economy and protect our way of life!

A Prime Minister who can’t be honest with Australians sets the tone for a government that can’t be honest about why Australians are worse off.

Even Labor MPs admit small businesses are doing it tough. But when asked whether Labor’s inflation and higher interest rates are making it worse, the Katy Gallagher had no answers – just excuses.
Sep 16
Labor’s spending is keeping pressure on inflation and interest rates.
Add their damaging housing taxes, and you get a weaker housing market, less investment and more pressure on rents.
Sep 16
Labor`s higher taxes and attack on mum and dad investors have killed the housing market and Labor has no idea how to fix it.
We do. Axe Labor’s taxes. Cut immigration and make it easier to build homes in Australia.
Sep 16
Australians can’t afford more of the same with Labor.
Sep 15
Labor’s cuts will hit pensioners, clog public hospitals and cost taxpayers more in the long run.
Sep 15
After a lifetime of working, paying taxes and doing the right thing, pensioners are being told by Labor to pay more just to keep their private health cover.
Our seniors deserve better.

Chris Bowen has a case of the Albo’s: can’t lie straight in bed.
After throwing billions at his hydrogen fantasy, he now wants Australians to believe he was never really that into it.
Meanwhile, families and businesses are paying the price for Labor’s energy experiment through higher power bills and a weaker economy.
Only the Liberals and Nationals have an energy plan that will fix the economy and reduce the cost of living.
Sep 15
AXE LABOR’S TOXIC TAXES.
LOWER INCOME TAXES.
PAY DOWN DEBT.
LOWER ENERGY PRICES.
LESS MIGRATION. MORE HOMES.
PUT AUSTRALIANS FIRST.
