Australian nationalist party proposes cutting 750,000 temporary visas

Diário de Viseu14 September 2026 at 08:15

The Australian Nationalist Party proposed the elimination of 750,000 temporary visas as part of its policy measures for the country.

The political formation won its first seat in the House of Representatives in May, achieving parliamentary representation for the first time.

The party advocates limiting student visas to just over 100,000 per year, a measure that represents a significant reduction compared to current temporary immigration numbers.

Why this matters

The nationalist party's proposal, now with parliamentary representation for the first time, represents a new political weight for restrictive immigration measures in Australia. This position emerges in the context of a broader debate about the impact of temporary visas on the Australian labor market and housing.

Judge from the Constitutional Court warns that constitutional courts "are being attacked"

The judge at the Portuguese Constitutional Court Maria Benedita Urbano warned that constitutional courts "are being attacked" given the rise of populism and authoritarianism in democratic societies, being targets of attempts to dismantle the Rule of Law. Urbano warned about methods that can be used to reduce the role of the CC, including financial asphyxiation, limiting jurisprudence, and substitution of judges, citing as an example the campaign to delegitimize Brazil's Supreme Federal Court. The magistrate argued that the CC must maintain total respect for the separation of powers and preserve its independence, emphasizing that changes such as the appointment of judges by the President of the Republic should be avoided as they could favor control of the judicial power by the executive.
