Bahahahahaha!
The coalition, who serve their corporate donor overlords first and foremost, will never lower immigration if they get in to government. Look at their track record since John Howard! They must think the electorate is especially stupid to believe they would change their policy.
The real estate industry and big banks wear the coalition like a condom and they like house prices just the way they are thanks. Similarly the rest of big business wants an over supply of workers and consumers.
One nation I don't doubt wants to lower the intake of certain kinds of immigrants. But underneath they are corporate donor serving conservatives with added racism, so hitting F to doubt they would really lower immigration in the unlikely scenario they got in to government. Also Pauline might want to check Gina's track record on using cheap outsourced and visa ### labour to build her mines. Maybe she has had a change of tune but I doubt it.
I mean... we have one nation voters... so yeah, there's a percentage who will go for this.
