Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced changes to Australia’s immigration policy on Saturday. The Prime Minister said these reforms to immigration needed to be brought to a “sustainable level” and said that “the system is broken.” These reforms will crack down on international student visas and low-skilled jobs.

This comes as a reported half-a million people have arrived in Australia since the end of the pandemic. In a housing crisis, some support the changes to Australia’s migration policy, but others suspect foul play.
