I give Australia a lot of crap at times, but honestly when it comes to building new homes in large numbers, almost no one does it better. We have been outbuilding the rest of the Anglosphere in per capita terms for 37 straight years. What more do you want?

@Peter_Strachan For each of the past 1,292 days, Albo & clowns imported about 1,500 people while about 330 new homes were completed. They continue to do this, and the housing emergency gets worse every day. The rapidly worsening healthcare crisis also grows by the day. https://t.co/BaHZZCItg4

@Peter_Strachan 1/3rd 😜. I know 3 Nepali students, lovely guys, but all came here with nothing and have changed courses multiples times to extend their visas. Their goal is to stay long enough to save enough to build a house in Nepal. One even laughed that he is studying disability support

Next time someone tells you mass immigration is a good thing, remind them of a time when you could own your own home and raise a family … all on a single income.

@Phil29629839476 @Peter_Strachan Speaking of slow the libs lost……so whose policy is it to import 1.8M extra people in 5 years from 2022 ( hint, stated in labor’s own projected budget figures). While both sides are complicit in the immigration debacle, Labor OWN the current invasion, its planned and deliberate

People in Western Australia are tired of the old supply-side arguments, so often pushed by the property industry. We have a housing demand issue, and there have never been more houses in Australia than there are today!

The ABS now says that the education export figure is exaggerated because it counts all expenditures in Australia by student visa holders, regardless of where the money is earned. It estimates that one-third of this expenditure was earned in Australia https://t.co/0zR1Un6mcb

I’ve said it from day 1, the 5% deposit scheme is pushing house prices up. Look at what is happening in Perth. #ausbiz #Auspol2025

@SueHigginson_ You are just attempting to manage decline while you continue to support #population growth (especially at current pace). You are promoting the illusion that this inherently ecologically damaging agenda can be managed, & hence you're counter-productive to genuine sustainability.

https://t.co/g83n94exaw The reference to Australians scapegoating migrants for their various woes tells us instantly this is trashy TC journalism. Few blame migrants but many blame immigration-fed population growth -- and they do so with full justification!

One Nation voters and older people are much more likely to be concerned about the number of migrants in Australia.

It must come as a shock to some people that many of the world’s most functional, secure, equitable, liveable and sustainable economies have relatively small and stable populations… …and many of the most dysfunctional don’t.

Sadly though, not only the policy of Labor, but also of the LNP, Greens & independents. I suggest you all look outside the mass immigration coalition next election.

The price of a house in Perth doubled every 63 months at its current pace of price growth.
