We have consistently built more dwellings than our population has grown for the last 10 years. Immigration is not the cause of the housing crisis, fiscal policy that rewards property speculation is.
Funny how people choose to ignore the actual facts because they want to point the finger at migrants. It's almost as if they're looking for a justification for their racism.

I didn't say that. I said that after all investors are dead, then we can start looking into immigration. But it's quite possible that the real estate issue would be solved and I would have a house and we would find out that immigration was not a problem.
