The chief of staff to former Prime Minister Tony Abbott, Peta Credlin, has exposed how the Australian Treasury continually pushes for higher levels of immigration against the wishes of the Australian people:
“Treasury economists pushed ever higher migration as a way for reform-shy governments to keep delivering economic growth”.
“I will never forget sitting in a discussion with senior ministers hearing Treasury officials explain that the best way to get economic growth over 3% was to boost immigration because each extra worker added to the size of the economy”.
