Government is 'siding with big business' on net overseas migration levels

Economist Andrew Stone says the government's forecast for net overseas migration of 235,000 people by 2025 is "disappointing". "Basically the government is siding with big business ... 'just give us all the workers that we want from overseas," he told Sky News host Peta Credlin. "And that's both very disappointing in terms of what it says about how much they care about well paid Australians, but it also will build up more problems."
