No ‘sign’ govt intends on winding back immigration despite ‘potential tipping point’Sky News host Peta Credlin says migration is back at record levels and “then some”, affecting traffic, public transport and rent affordability. “As reported today in The Australian, net overseas migration – so that’s the number of people who come here for more than 12 months, minus those leaving long-term – was 304,000 in the year to last September – the highest in more than a decade,” Ms Credlin said. “In the first three months of this financial year, the net inflow was 106,000 – again, an all-time record.
