Politics live: One Nation reveals ‘net-negative’ migration policy; electrifying push for Australians to save $5,000 a year

One Nation has revealed a proposed migration policy that would result in a net-negative number of migrants entering Australia each year. This policy aims to encourage Australians to save $5,000 annually by reducing the number of foreign workers. The policy's focus on savings could have implications for consumer spending and the overall economy, potentially affecting interest rates and inflation. The government and opposition are criticizing One Nation's plan, warning it could lead to economic shocks and make Australians poorer.
