What are the long-term implications of Australia's high net migration for housing affordability and the government's housing targets?

Australia's housing shortage is exacerbated by higher-than-expected immigration (450,000-475,000 estimated for 2023-24), despite government efforts to build 1.2 million homes over five years. The continued high number of international students further intensifies pressure on rental markets. The government attributes this to fewer departures than anticipated.

How does the Union plan to finance its proposed tax cuts and spending reductions, and what are the potential economic and social consequences of this plan?

The Union's platform proposes substantial cuts to social programs, including the citizen's benefit (Bürgergeld) and refugee support, alongside tax cuts primarily benefiting corporations and high-income earners. This contrasts sharply with the left's emphasis on increased social spending and investment in infrastructure, funded by increased debt. The Union's plan lacks detailed financing, with economists identifying a potential funding gap of up to €100 billion.
