Australia's political landscape is fragmenting — and the numbers are startling.
Labor's primary vote: 28%. Coalition: 23%. One Nation: surging on immigration (36%) and cost-of-living (20%). 62% of Australians want net overseas migration reduced.
In my latest video, I test Labor, the Coalition, the Greens, and One Nation against four evidence-based tests: economic design, integrity, social capacity, and cohesion.
Key findings:
1.4 to 3.35 million Australians are underutilised — yet we've added 1.5M+ net overseas migrants in six years
India is now Australia's #1 source country — but universities banned applicants from specific states and Home Affairs moved India to Category 3
Housing supply is 15% lower than a decade ago, while migration has nearly doubled
One Nation is now a serious political force
The scorecard:
Economic Design: Labor ★★★★☆ | Coalition ★★☆☆☆ | Greens ★★★☆☆ | One Nation ★★☆☆☆
Integrity: Labor ★★☆☆☆ | Coalition ★★★☆☆ | Greens ★★★★☆ | One Nation ★☆☆☆☆
Social Capacity: Labor ★★★☆☆ | Coalition ★★☆☆☆ | Greens ★★★★☆ | One Nation ★★★☆☆
Cohesion: Labor ★★☆☆☆ | Coalition ★★☆☆☆ | Greens ★★★★★ | One Nation ★☆☆☆☆
No party passes all four tests. Watch the full analysis here: https://youtu.be/PrXbMbMtr50?si=ClWUi-47paj9iqX9
