Immigration verified
Bell named 'ending mass immigration' among his top Senate priorities, arguing that high immigration levels are driving housing unaffordability, overloading infrastructure and pushing up energy prices in NSW, and calling for a government that puts 'Australian families, industries, and values first.'
Economic nationalism verified
In his 26 November 2025 maiden speech, Bell said Australian manufacturing 'is being shut down' and that industry such as Tomago Aluminium is 'on the brink', that coalmining jobs sustaining regions like the Hunter 'are being sacrificed', and criticised reliance on 'Chinese-made solar panels and foreign supply chains' as 'national self-harm', adding that a young family 'should not have to compete with every millionaire from China, India or the United States' to buy a home.
