Australia’s immigration intake hit record numbers in January, with a net increase of more than 55,000. Migration is fuelling demand for limited housing supply as One Nation leader Pauline Hanson called for a plebiscite on immigration. “I am pro-immigration and I think that extreme should be not dominating the debate like it does,” he told Sky News Australia. “I think we need a rational and mature discussion about this.”

Another member of the Jury said the people should be telling the government what the average Australian wants to have a happy life.

Queen Camilla gave a brief update on Princess Catherine this week and thanked well-wishers for their support for the Royal Family during a walkabout in Shrewsbury.

Royal commentator Victoria Arbiter has hailed King Charles’ willingness to speak openly about his cancer diagnosis. “Learning the King wasn’t quite well I think was very jarring for a huge number of people,” Ms Arbiter told Sky News Australia. “But at the same time, his willingness to be so open about his diagnosis has had an extraordinary knock-on effect and it really speaks to the enduring fascination with the British royals but also how people look to them to inform elements of their own life.”

AMP CEO Alexis George says Australians are the “best in the world” with compulsion and saving money as the government considers assessing superannuation reforms. Australia’s superannuation net pot is now close to $3.5 trillion and is growing fast due to the rapid population increase and low unemployment rates. “I think why it is time to have a good look is that many baby boomers are moving into the next phase of their retirement which is actually when they start to draw down from the system,” she told Sky News Business Editor Ross Greenwood. “This is the first time we’ve seen a big wave moving through that to draw down. “So I think it’s natural for us to have a look at it right now.”

Foreign Minister Penny Wong says Opposition Leader Peter Dutton and the Coalition are in a “mood to make sure that they say no to whatever they can”. Ms Wong’s comments come after the Coalition and Greens united to reject the government’s proposed deportation bill.
