Immediately preceding me on The Bolt Report last night, Cory Bernardi was interviewed and called for Australia’s mass immigration program to be halved.
Note that Australia’s current permanent migrant program is 200,000, which is around 2.5 times the level that existed at the turn of the century:
Therefore, halving Australia’s immigration intake would merely return it closer to historical norms and makes a lot of sense on economic, environmental and liveabilty grounds.

Australia was a successful multicultural nation pre-2000 and we would remain so if immigration levels returned to those levels.
