Chart showing that even though Australia's population has grown quickly after the COVID pause - it is still lower than would have occurred under the trend growth in the 5 years before COVID

Blaming migrants for housing prices is not only wrong it also ignores the fact that Australia's population is now *lower* than it would have been had we not had COVID. Migrants are not taking our houses (or jobs)@mattgrudnoff.bsky.social writes #OffTheCharts
