Monday night that he was shocked at the astronomical house prices in Sydney’s eastern suburbs that were “much more than I could afford, and I have a decent job”.
“I was like, howdoes anybodylive here?” he said.
“How does the average Australian making average wage … how do you live here? I asked someone I was travelling with, ‘Your housing prices, not just on Sydney Harbour but just normal houses areso expensive, how does anybody live here?’ And this person said, ‘Well increasingly they don’t. They have to leave, there’s a lot of homeless people all of a sudden.’ I said, ‘That sounds like a crisis.’”
He then went on to blame immigration.... classic right wing simplification of the issue. Our housing bubble is so obvious to outsiders.... why can't we acknowledge it ?
