Australia to face catastrophic Uber Eats delivery driver shortage

In the ongoing debate over the right level of migration into Australia, there have been a great many narratives trotted out in an attempt to make a case that the status quo is perfectly fine.

From the arguments based on migrants working in the healthcare and aged/disability sector, to the claimed disproportionate migrant tradies building the nation’s homes, each has some grains of truth within, but ultimately, when stacked up against a net overseas migration intake that is more than half made up of international students and working holiday visa holders, they simply do not hold water.

An example of this is a recent infographic posted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) as part of a completely unrelated social media post.
