Our first task is to present comprehensive post-Covid19 economic policies, based on the NCC’s five primacies.

These policies are to build industries that strategically strengthen Australia, reduce Australia’s reliance on China and provide well-paid jobs that rebuild the struggling middle class, nourish the family and make families independent of the welfare state.

Second, the NCC’s task is to expose and counter four key hostile ideologies in defence of human life and the family, inherent human rights and Australia as an independent, free nation:[ultimate_heading main_heading=”Four Hostile Ideologies” main_heading_color=”#f03c1e”][/ultimate_heading][dt_vc_list]

Libertarianism, ‘the right to do as I please’, (e.g. unrestrained pursuit of pleasure or profit) in its cultural, economic and legal forms, undermines the natural family and a fair market economy;
Chinese communism, the ideology behind Beijing’s aggressive extension of power into the Asia Pacific region, and beyond;
Fluid gender ideology that is weaponising laws that attack the foundations of a tolerant democracy – freedom of speech, association and religion; and
Radical environmentalism that goes beyond protecting the environment to undermining both the energy needs of the nation and the development of important industries.
