'Problematic' that opened borders are not being reciprocated | Sky News AustraliaTrade and Tourism Minister Simon Birmingham says there can be no justifiable reason for states that are handling COVID-19 well to maintain restrictions against one another. \n\nSouth Australia welcomes anyone from ACT, NT, Queensland, Tasmania and Western Australia without 14 days of self quarantine.\n\n“It’s really problematic that some jurisdictions like the NT and SA have opened up to other jurisdictions like WA and Tasmania, but that’s not being reciprocated when all four of those jurisdictions have had remarkable success in suppressing Covid,” Mr Birmingham told Sky News.\n\n“We really want to see states and territories recognising parts of Australia that are doing well and open up borders in ways that are mutually respectful of one another.\n\n“It’s just hurting in terms of the sustainment of jobs.”\n

Australia must ‘build first’ before opening the doors to more migration | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Peta Credlin says before Australia throws open the doors to migrants after the pandemic, there should be strong consideration on the “right values that we should all share” and the right facilities we all need.\n\n“With so much of normal life restricted, supposedly for our own good during the pandemic, thank God at least one part of government is still focussed on our freedoms,” Ms Credlin said.\n\nActing Immigration Minister Alan Tudge has just released a new version of the citizenship test designed to ensure new Australians understand and appreciate modern Australian values.\n\n“We can't be a cohesive community without adherence to the law, respect for our institutions, pride in our past, hope for our future, and affection and esteem for our fellow Australians,” Ms Credlin said.\n\n“The Australian experience is about people coming to a new land, wanting more freedom to live their lives, and being prepared to work hard to get ahead.\n\n“Especially now, with Melbourne surrounded by a 'ring of steel', in case someone tries to escape, it's timely we should remember that, and celebrate it”.\n\nHowever, Ms Credlin said the right economic considerations should be made, not just the “lazy economics” of higher immigration equals higher GDP growth.\n\n“Integrating migrants doesn't just mean inculcating the right values that we all should share; it also means building the right facilities that we all will need,” she said.\n\n“Before our population grows by another 15 per cent in a decade, we really should insist on building the water, power and transport infrastructure needed for everyone who's already here to keep their quality of life.\n\n“Build it first, then open the doors.”\n
