More Shocking Fake News, Disinformation, and Leftist Propaganda from the ABC Once again, the ABC has deceived Australians, airing the totally unchallenged false claim that net immigration of around 300,000 people creates a "surplus" of housing. This is classic dog-whistling to leftist activists who desperately want to deny the obvious link between excessive immigration and Australia’s housing crisis. The ABC’s false claim rests on the flawed premise that Australia is building 175,000 "new" homes per year. At an average occupancy of 2.4 people per home, this supposedly covers the needs of 300,000 net migrants (requiring only ~125,000 homes), leaving a supposed "surplus" of housing enabling migration rates to be increased, Such reporting is fundamentally dishonest. 🟠FIRST, it ignores the fact that we must also provide new housing for the natural population growth—not just new migrants. According to the latest ABS figures for the year ending September 2024 (or closest available), net overseas migration was approximately 311,000, while natural increase added another 112,600 people. That totals 423,600 additional people needing housing. At 2.4 people per dwelling, Australia required around 176,500 new homes just to keep pace—meaning the claimed "surplus" (based in building 175,000 "new" homes) is at best an illusion. 🟠SECOND using the ABS’s 175,000 "new" homes figure is grossly misleading because this number includes knock-down rebuilds (KDRs) that do NOT increase overall housing supply. ABS data shows that between July 2019 and June 2025, 19.2% of "new" dwellings approved were knock-down rebuilds that simply replaced existing housing. Applying that rate, the real net addition to housing stock was only about 141,400 homes—well short of the 176,500 needed. This leaves a shortfall of roughly 35,000 homes in that year alone. In equivalent terms, that’s like an excess migration intake of around 84,000 people (before even addressing the backlog from previous years of under-supply). 🟠Yet the ABC pushed the exact opposite of the truth, deceiving viewers into believing there was a housing surplus. No doubt many of their gullible leftist audience clapped along like trained seals. The ABC’s persistent disinformation on migration and housing is actively preventing Australians from having an informed national debate. By peddling these half-truths and omissions, they shield failed policies from scrutiny and exacerbate the very crisis they pretend to report on. 🟠The ABC needs to be defunded. Taxpayers should not be forced to subsidise this kind of biased, misleading journalism.

So its like this. You work for 45 years, you buy a house and pay it off. Meantime you buy some shares and some other property to help pay the way in retirement. The whole way through you had to pay tax BEFORE you put money into these investments. But according to @tanya_plibersek, your kids should be paying tax again when you die. Ponder that. Why save? Why put money away? Why take care of your own family? Because people like Plibersek and @AlboMP just want to take it from you.

It’s painful listening to these grubby, money grabbing Labor Ministers. It’s a Death Tax and you’ll be paying 30% tax on assets you purchased after already being taxed. Make it make sense.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has defended Labor’s controversial changes to capital gains tax, as new polling shows Opposition leader Angus Taylor ahead as preferred PM following the federal budget. During the 2025 election campaign, Labor ruled out changes to capital gains tax, but last week’s budget removed tax breaks for property investors in a major policy back-flip.

No surprises here…Victoria is a criminal state. Jacinta Allan has been knee-deep in this corruption for years, right alongside Comrade Dan. She’s blocking a Royal Commission and refusing to empower IBAC because it would expose her own involvement.

Anyone else watching Jim Chalmers this morning? Brilliant stuff from him, explaining the misleading crap from the MSM, who are exploiting it for their own merits. How hard is it these days to try and help younger people to get into their own homes, a must watch folks #auspol

Is Australia better off now than we were 20 years ago? Australia in 2005: • ~20M people • Houses ~4–5× incomes • Stronger purchasing power • Lower debt burden Australia in 2026: • ~27M+ people • Houses ~9–16× incomes • Weaker purchasing power • Record debt and asset inflation Looks very clear to me.
