An ABC national forum focused on how media frames migration in public debate. One Nation has proposed cutting migration by 750,000 places over three years. Senator Barnaby Joyce defended the plan and played down warnings of economic harm. He said the claims were exaggerated.
Separately, MP Andrew Hastie said Joyce offered an apology to him after a public slur. Hastie verified the apology. The forum also turned to how language and labels can influence public views toward migration.
