Reported at www.macrobusiness.com.au: Both major parties, Labor and the Liberals, offer similarly regressive policies on issues like housing, education, and immigration while failing to address the pressing problem of unsustainable population growth driven largely by immigration.

Labor’s commitment to a net-zero future clashes with its continuation of high immigration rates, while the Liberals appear to lack a coherent plan to address cost-of-living concerns and other critical issues.

The entrenched political duopoly ultimately deprives voters of meaningful options, as both parties protect established interests.
