One Nation senator claims party plans deporting 200,000 people from Australia
One Nation senator Malcolm Roberts claims the party will deport or "remigrate" 200,000 people from Australia, far exceeding the party's stated policy of removing 75,000 illegal migrants. In podcast interviews, Roberts said One Nation would deport 100,000 visa overstayers and 100,000 international students. Former immigration official Abul Rizvi warned mass deportations would be "eyewateringly expensive" and result in significant errors.
