Cabinet’s big announcement fizzled without details, while Liberal’s Andrew Bragg floated vague ideas about cutting international students and holiday makers—only to be shot down by his own team. Nationals leader Matt Canavan defended backpacker visas as vital for regional areas, and Labor’s plan focuses on “bridging” visas rather than hard targets. The whole mess leaves us wondering: with Australians leaving and pandemic-era pent-up demand spiking post-border reopening, what’s really being cut—and who’s even in charge?
