Radio 2GB demolishes Labor’s unlimited elderly visas

Radio 2GB’s Michael Maclaren has done a good job demolishing Labor’s uncapped policy to allow migrant Australians to bring their parents to Australia, which Demographer Peter McDonald predicts could result in 2 million additional elderly residents inundating Australia.

Michael is joined by Dr Bob Birrell, demographer at the Australian Population Research Institute, who himself last week forecast 200,000-plus additional elderly parent visas in Labor’s first term.
