Multicultural Funding Under Fire | Sydney News

from Sydney News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Multicultural funding is under fire as $171 million is accused of favoring Labor seats, sparking outrage over community division. The government quietly pivots toward broader intercultural initiatives, while parliament resumes amid pressure to balance migrant support with tighter immigration controls. Rising support for hardline immigration parties fuels the debate, with the opposition calling it political manipulation and the government defending it as geographic reality. New grant guidelines emphasize cross-cultural understanding, and a major migration package—aimed at hitting net overseas migration targets—is expected soon, including reforms to the skills program and stricter visa rules.
