As always, it's nothing more than red meat for a right-wing base and an attempt to distract from decades of LDP incompetence and scandals.
The “foreigner policy” (gaikokujin seisaku; 外国人政策) in Japan is nothing more than the old us vs. them scapegoating.

衆議院選挙(2026)
ざっくり言うと
与党は安定強化／野党は一部ニッチ増
※速報時点のざっくり整理です
Japan’s 2026 general election — quick snapshot.
Ruling parties strengthened stability,
while opposition parties shrank overall, with only niche growth in specific segments.
This is a rough structural overview at an early stage.

Well, I guess that's all.
As always, Japanese political parties are as vague as possible with their promises. This time they all seem to want to cut the consumption tax (once again raising it was Abe's stupidest policy, but we're not allowed to criticize him postmortem apparently) so maybe it will happen.
Otherwise, let's hope the LDP loses and we got rid of fascist and xenophobe Takaichi.

Japanese politics, more often than not, a family affair.
Thủ tướng Nhật Bản Sanae Takaichi công bố sẽ giải tán Hạ viện vào cuối tuần này, mở đường cho cuộc tổng tuyển cử dự kiến diễn ra vào tháng tới. #Japan #JapanPolitics #ThủTướng #ChínhTrị #TổngTuyểnCử #Dissolution #Election
