The immigration debate has has clearly been won by the skeptics. Coverage today starts with a stark warning from Infrastructure Australia CEO Philip Davies, at The Australian:
In an exclusive interview with The Australian, Mr Davies, who will retire from his position at the end of this month, slated successive governments for “gold-plating” infrastructure projects without sound business cases and being unaccountable to taxpayers on costs.
As the Turnbull government prepares a population policy, with Australia poised to reach 25 million people next month, Mr Davies said if planning for major projects did not change at all levels of government, the major capitals would not cope with the population growth.
