TUCKER CARLSON'S STUNNING ADMISSION ABOUT LIFE IN AUSTRALIA

Tucker Carlson has boldly claimed Australia's housing crisis will result in a childless generation because it is too expensive for people to buy a home and start a family.

The former Fox News presenter and right-wing commentator was speaking at Melbourne's Convention Centre on Monday night when he addressed immigration in Australia - which he described as the 'one reason' for the housing crisis - and also criticised Welcome to Country ceremonies and the 'lazy' Labor Party.

Carlson admitted he was shocked when he learned how expensive it was to buy a home in Sydney, even in suburbs far away from the harbour.

He said he was looking up house prices because he was considering buying property in Australia - but soon realised even someone with his bank balance could not realistically afford a home Down Under.

'It was so much more than I can afford and I have a decent job,' he told the crowd.

'How does anybody live here?'

He said when he asked the question to a Sydney local, he was told many had left the city altogether or ended up homeless.

'I said, "That sounds like a crisis,"' Carlson added.

'Why is it happening? Immigration. There's only one reason and that's the reason. 

'But nobody wants to say it like that because it sounds like an attack on immigrants. And that's how they get you to shut up. They say, "Shut up, racist."'

Carlson said he was generally supportive of immigration, but that if there wasn't enough housing for a growing population, prices would rapidly rise.

'If it becomes too expensive for your children to buy a house in the country they were born in, you're erased, that's it. Your line ends and that's what's happening,' he said.

'If your children can't afford a house here then you have one person to blame and that's the people that run your government.'

Sydney's median house price of $1.466million is 12 times an average, full-time salary of $98,218 - even with a 20 per cent deposit - and last year, a record 547,300 migrants flooded into Australia.

The political commentator also brought up the history of Australia and Welcome to Country ceremonies, which show respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

He told those in the room they 'had nothing to apologise for - at all' when it came to the 'sins' of their ancestors, referring to the white settlers.

'And yet at every turn they're making you apologise,' he said.

'I have never seen a society more under attack than the one you're living in now and for less justification.

'Every time a commercial airline lands, every time any kind of ceremony opens, they send you the message that you're on someone else's land.

'And I'm thinking to myself, and this is no slight against the people they're talking about at all, but this is Australian land and you're all Australians.

'And why would you ever put up with that? And who is this helping? Is it helping the people who are supposedly being honoured by these displays? No of course not.'

Carlson was met with applause on his stance, and was further cheered on when he began tearing apart the Labor Party.

He said he was stunned to find out there was 'no labour' within the Labor Party, in the sense that none of the politicians were qualified tradespeople.

'There's no actual labour in the leadership of the Labor party, none of them have had a job. They're all just parasites on the taxpayer,' he said.

'The laziest people in the country call themselves the Labor party.'

Carlson flew back to the United States on Tuesday after wrapping up The Australian Freedom Conferences, presented by Mineralogy and organised by Clive Palmer.

The pair visited Cairns, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Melbourne for the conferences, with tickets first being released at about $200 each.

This was drastically reduced to between $50 and $110 last month.

Carlson had earlier spoke at the Hyatt Hotel in Canberra where he clashed with an AAP reporter after she asked about his views on 'Great Replacement Theory'. 

She said Carlson had spoken about how white Australians, Americans and Europeans were being replaced by non-white migrants '4,000 times' on his show. 

He responded by noting he had 'never said that whites are being replaced, not one time' and that his comments on the issue applied to all native-born regardless of race.

'If you think that's racist, that's your problem,' Carlson said.

'It's completely honest and real, not racist or scary, its factually true - its not a theory its a fact.' 

Carlson became exasperated when the reporter then went on to link his discussion of the Great Replacement Theory to a a racially-motivated mass shooting that left 10 dead in Buffalo, New York in 2023. 

'Oh, God! Come on!' Carlson replied. 

'How do they get people this stupid in the media? I guess it doesn't pay well.'
