The rising cost of living in Australia is due to Net-Zero “rorts” and now they’re adding another one – the Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS). The Labor government is using taxpayer money to fund solar and wind in a way that lacks transparency and accountability. For example: Energy Minister Chris Bowen awarded substantial taxpayer money to a wind turbine project fund whose chair is former Labor Prime Minister Julia Gillard. Bowen did so just days after the fund purchased the project. W...| Malcolm Roberts

Australia has up to 3.7 million noncitizens—in a population of just 27.4 million. Hospitals are stretched, housing is unaffordable, and life is more expensive. Why won’t the government reveal the real number? Transcript Not counting tourists, the number of people in Australia today who are not Australian citizens could be as high as 3.7 million. In a country with an estimated population of just 27.4 million people, this huge influx is stretching our hospitals, making housing unaffordable ...| Malcolm Roberts
In 2024, 23,000 foreign students were found to have purchased qualifications—many in aged care and early childhood—from deregistered providers like SPES Education. This is a clear breach of their visa conditions under Section 8202 and defeats the entire purpose of studying in Australia—which is to support the Australian education industry while acquiring real skills they can use to contribute to the growth of Australia or their country of origin. The penalty for such a serious breach of...| Malcolm Roberts
A million foreign students and their families are in Australia—overcrowding schools, straining housing, and bleeding tens of billions of $$ out of the country. Courses are being used as backdoor permanent residency pathways, with poor standards and little oversight. One Nation will: ✅ Deport visa cheats ✅ End family visas for students ✅ Introduce 8-year wait times for benefits ✅ Free up homes for young Aussies It’s time to fix the rort and put Australians first.

One Nation stands firmly against the Albanese Government’s push for electric vehicles (EVs), and the billions in taxpayer-funded subsidies and infrastructure spending that overwhelmingly benefit wealthy Australians. While everyday Australians face rising costs for housing, groceries, and fuel, the government continues to pour money into EV incentives and charger installations—despite low public uptake. Australians should […]| Malcolm Roberts

One Nation backs Senator Bragg’s Housing Investment Probity Bill to stop public funds flowing to CFMEU-linked projects via Cbus. We would however go further. One Nation would: ✅ Shut down the Housing Future Fund and the federal Department of Housing. ✅ Cut $50K off home costs by fixing the Building Code and suspending GST on building materials. ✅ Create a People’s Bank for 5% fixed-rate mortgages. ✅ Allow a person’s super account to invest in their first home.

One Nation is the only party completely united in our belief that Australians deserve a better, cheaper way of life by ditching Net-Zero.
