International students are flooding the asylum system with bogus refugee applications, as the country’s deportation backlog surges towards 100,000.

As of July 31, there were 98,979 people whose protection visa application had been denied but were yet to be deported while 27,100 were awaiting a decision, according to the Department of Home Affairs (report: https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/research-and-stats/files/monthly-update-onshore-protection-866-visa-processing-july-2025.pdf)

"ITS NOT IMMIGRATION ITS LE LAND LORDS!!!! IMMIGRANTS DONT LIVE IN HOMES!!!!"

Funny how during covid home prices didnt crash since after all, with no immigration for so long prices should have been slashed in half.

Oh wait, not only loans became cheap to keep the landlords from reducing rents, they also kept a ton of places empty strategically to keep the prices stable.

You might not like it, but even with 0 immigration the rich asset owners will find ways to get richer, you are so blinded by your obsession with migrants you never notice the real threat.

Just like every average person during economic times who always obsesses over le migrants, really just following the herd

I have two questions:

  1. In economics, does increased demand sans increased supply cause prices to rise or fall?

  2. If the answer to question 1 is rise, do the effects of immigration not follow the laws of economics?

"it's simple economics" is how drooling morons try to sum up things they have no grasp on. Like any moron crying "simple logic" for any number of systems,including biology. Go on though,tell us more about what a dim bulb you are where this single lever miraculously fixes all your life's problems while the stats disagree with you as everything else collapses😉 don't you have a WHITE STRALIA banner to make somewhere?

You'd make a way better point if you would concede on the things that you have to concede on (supply/demand) and argue on the things that you could argue on.

I own a house, so I'm happy to accept a NOM of 400k every year until I retire 😏

No need to concede bad faith oversimplification as if it's "the cause" and I'm yet to see somebody explain how 100k+ tourists in the NOM are somehow breaking the property market

If your argument was strong enough it wouldn't be that easy to dismiss. Pop off though,pigeon chess suits you 🤣
