Freaking pathetic. Sad, angry and stupid people once again being told to blame all their problems on a minority/outsiders without questioning the people telling them to do so.

Most people on that march won't really care about the housing issues. If there was no housing shortage they'd find something else. They want an excuse to hate migrants.
Thankyou. Fixed
No worries. It's a very stupid link!
The racist idiots are shutting down any real discourse around immigration, which is higher than it needs to be by around 20-30% and results in suppressed wages, reduction in housing availability and stress on public infrastructure like hospitals.
You won’t get a good conversation on any of these topics until the racists crawl back to their holes.
Continuing the historically high levels of immigration gives the Nazis a wedge issue they can use to convince more morons to sign up.
Labor can address the issue or we will continue to see Nazi rallies.
Labor will continue the immigration rates because it makes it look like we have higher GDP growth than we really do. A little trick they learnt from Howard.
Also the author throwing this out
The private rental market is a nightmare for renters. Tenants are facing skyrocketing rents and no-grounds evictions are all too common. Landlords are one of the major causes of homelessness and the housing crisis.
While ignoring that increased demand (and interest rates) leads to increased prices???
I think that the owner class of 1%ers deliberately stir up these racist dickheads with the express purpose of stifling all reasonable discourse about population growth / migration levels.
Obviously the "correct" amount of immigration is something on which reasonable people can agree but I'm curious where you get that 20-30% figure?
