Can we blame our housing pain on immigration?

Thursday Headlines: Labor promises to cap prescription medications at $25, Putin accused of breaking promise to not strike Ukrainian energy targets, new search green lit for missing flight MH370 and a Jury convicts two men in golden toilet heist.

Deep Dive: If you tune into Parliament, you’d think Australia is drowning in crises—health, crime, climate, and, most notably, housing and immigration. And lately, those last two have become deeply intertwined in political debate.

Conservative voices are calling for immigration cuts, arguing that an influx of new arrivals is pushing Aussies out of the housing market. But is this really what’s driving the crisis, or is it just an easy scapegoat?

In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with veteran finance journalist Alan Kohler to unpack the facts and find out whether cutting immigration is a viable solution.
