Hours after being elected federal Liberal leader, Angus Taylor pledged a tougher stance on what he called “bad immigration”, claiming the Coalition would unveil new migration policies within months aimed at halting entrants who “seek to bring hatred and violence” to Australia (theguardian.com).
Taylor did not specify numerical caps but criticised Labor for presiding over record net-overseas-migration and promised to tighten character and security screening. He framed the agenda as part of a broader cost-of-living strategy centred on housing supply and smaller government (theguardian.com).

For individuals and employers who feel caught in the cross-currents of Australia’s evolving immigration debate, VisaHQ offers clear, step-by-step assistance with visa selection and application. Their dedicated Australia page (https://www.visahq.com/australia/) compiles the latest requirements and processing times, helping travellers and businesses stay compliant while policymakers continue to refine the rules.
The rhetoric is designed to claw back voters drifting to right-wing minor parties such as One Nation, yet risks unsettling sectors that rely on skilled migration to fill chronic labour gaps. Business groups have already warned that “values-based filters” could inject uncertainty into employer-sponsored visa streams.
With a comprehensive migration-system review under way and parliamentary numbers tight, Taylor’s positioning suggests that bipartisan consensus on medium-term skills visas may fray, complicating forward planning for corporate mobility programmes.
