The Liberal party can win back millennials, but we’re going to need to do away with some wrong assumptions about this generation.

Australia is the lucky country, but the mining boom was just that: good luck. The Liberal Party needs to have a vision for an Australia whose prosperity is undergirded not by what we dig up, but by what we know and what we make.

Teaching in Australia is suffering from a crisis of respect. As Liberals, we are in a unique position to make a difference because many of the problems are rooted in Labor ideology: the public school system is operated as a socialist enterprise and suffers from the same drawbacks that are common to all socialist enterprises.

Australia’s current foreign policy with respect to Asia is characterised by dangerously wishful thinking, and a lack of achievable and meaningful strategic objectives.

It is time we had an honest conversation about the real reason we have a housing affordability crisis: immigration.

Tertiary education has never been more important when it comes to finding a good job in Australia. However, we’ve failed to fully realise the potential benefits of online learning in improving affordability. I’m proposing three policy ideas that would make tertiary education more affordable and relevant, with better employment outcomes for students.

Our party desperately needs some big ticket, signature policies to win over young people at the next federal election. I’m proposing two such reforms that would make a major difference for young families across Australia and show millennials that when we say we are on their side, we are willing to back it up.

Housing policy is an opportunity to put forward a positive agenda that can make a real difference in fixing Australia’s cost of living crisis.

Nuclear power is no silver bullet, in fact it’s an electorally dangerous red herring.

It is a national disgrace that entire communities in remote Australia are living in conditions comparable to the poorest countries of Africa. It is high time that the Liberals took the lead on this issue, and advocated for real solutions based on our principles and values.

We need policies that demonstrating a genuine commitment to housing affordability, because when young people believe that we are on their side, they will vote for us.
