Coddsy is appreciative of recognition of his discerning gaze.

ScoMo doesn't muck around and now he is pushing another election winning initiative in controlling overcrowding which is really bugging people in the cities.

And locked in the Greenies grip Labor wants to RESTART the BOATS and flood Australia with the Greeny and Vic Labor favored Black African Terrorists!!!!!

Migrant group warns against government's regional push

The federal government is interested in directing migrants to regional areas rather than Sydney or Melbourne, Immigration Minister David Coleman says.

Australia's migrant council has urged caution against a strong push towards new arrivals moving to regional areas, believing it could stunt economic growth.

Immigration Minister David Coleman says he is looking "very closely" to provide incentives and simplifying the visa process to get more migrants to move outside of the major cities.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison last week signalled plans to slow the intake of some temporary migrants and to encourage new arrivals to settle regionally.

Compliance needs to be there for visas: Minister
The moves come as main cities Sydney and Melbourne feel the strain of congestion and escalating populations.

Mr Coleman says giving immigrants good reasons to move to regional areas and ensuring they remain living where they said they will is key.

"I don't want to get into specifics about particular visas and so on ... but what I would say is that it's about creating the right structure," he told Sky News on Sunday.

"So the right incentives, the right reasons for immigrants to choose those regional areas.

"It's also about ensuring that that's followed through upon. Obviously if people come on a visa that's meant to be based in a regional area then compliance needs to be there to make that happen."

Separate city infrastructure issues from migration: Migration Council
Migration Council Australia chief executive Carla Wilshire said evidence shows that migrants who settle in regional areas do well.

However, Ms Wilshire said many immigrants had specialised skills that were best utilised in urban areas.

About 87 per cent of skilled migrants move to Melbourne or Sydney.

"Migration is immensely important to Australia's economic future and we need to be careful not throw the baby out with the bath water," Ms Wilshire told AAP.

"A migration program that addresses the needs of regional Australia does not solve basic infrastructure problems.

"If we are going to continue to grow and stay competitive then we need to make the investment in infrastructure in our cities."

The minister says there are a number of regions that have been calling for more immigrants, including South Australia, the Goldfields in Western Australia and Victoria's Warrnambool.

ScMo is hitting hard on all fronts as he campaigns to win the election.

Morrison tested as Labor leads in poll
Paul Osborne 4 hrs ago

VIDEO: Punishing Poll

Scott Morrison faces a rocky week of parliament as a new poll shows the government still trailing the Labor opposition.

The Fairfax-Ipsos poll gives Labor a 53-47 per cent two-party preferred lead over the coalition, down two points over the past month.

After weeks of disunity within the Liberal Party, leading to Mr Morrison taking the reins from Malcolm Turnbull, only 49 per cent of voters believe the prime minister has the confidence of his party compared with 70 per cent for Mr Shorten.

However, the poll had some positive news for Mr Morrison.

The prime minister is considered trustworthy by 49 per cent of voters compared with 39 per cent for Mr Shorten.

And the former federal treasurer's economic credentials are rated by 66 per cent of voters, compared with 47 per cent for the opposition leader.

The government is expected to face pressure this week with Labor and the Greens seeking to refer Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton to the High Court to test whether he is breaching the constitution over his family's financial interest in two childcare centres.

Mr Dutton says his legal advice puts his eligibility beyond doubt.

Labor leader Bill Shorten says the opposition will wait until it knows it has the support of some government MPs to try to refer Mr Dutton.

An inquiry report due on Wednesday will shed light on another matter affecting Mr Dutton - his ministerial decisions to approve visas for two au pairs.

Liberal unrest is expected to continue as party president Nick Greiner told ABC TV on Sunday night he didn't see why the results of the preselection in former prime minister Tony Abbott's seat of Warringah should not be publicly released.

The result of another preselection, in the seat of Wentworth vacated by Mr Turnbull, is also expected to be aired in parliament.

The Liberals preselected diplomat Dave Sharma, who does not live in the seat, despite Mr Morrison backing a female candidate.

Mr Sharma faces a tough test against independent candidate Dr Kerryn Phelps, who announced her nomination on Sunday.

Speaker Tony Smith will issue the writ for the October 20 by-election on Monday.

The government's credibility will also come under scrutiny on Tuesday with an inquiry into the controversial granting of $444 million to the Great Barrier Reef Foundation taking evidence from the foundation's management.

Labor will use parliament to seek details around the government's announcement of a royal commission into the aged-care system, which the coalition has previously rejected.

Mr Morrison's announcement on Sunday did not include the terms of reference, cost, timing or who will be the royal commissioners.

Poor lefties in denial and have missed the point.

More than likely Labor will win the election, but even after such a schitfight at camp Liberal, Shorten remains as popular as a turd in a spa bath. Why?

For all the rusted-ons, I don't begrudge you for stinking with your side thru thick and thin, but to stand up for that creep, really?

Anyway, this is going to cause incredible instability about 18 months after the election as his popularity will be lower than his droopy manboobs.

Should fix the problem now and put Albo on the bike.

That is just wishful thinking from someone who doesn't understand how incumbency works in opinion polling.

It works like this. About 10% of voters in a typical opinion poll would prefer the current Prime Minister simply because they are the current Prime Minister. This is the advantage of incumbency. The Prime Minister has a higher profile and is more well known.

As for getting on a bike, fatguts Morrison needs to do something about his very wide belly that has expanded considerably in the last few years.

Yeah, I reckon you're just in denial about how deeply the Australian population dislike Shorten. Your 10% factor is just wishful thinking. Rudd had a massive margin as preferred PM.

Gawd, even I voted for the Milky Bar Kid.

12 March 2007
Mr Rudd has extended his lead as preferred prime minister to 14 points - 53 to 39 per cent.

So what happened to Rudd?

You're also forgetting that the right-wing biased MSM are giving Morrison a thoroughly undeserved armchair ride and he's enjoying a bit of a honeymoon at the moment, what there is of it. It won't last. Once he's put under proper scrutiny, the gilt will wear off the turd.

Aqua,

If ScMo announces a new HELE Power Station he has already WON the election because every man and his dog is suffering from power overload.

And stupid Scungy Shorty is threatening to cripple Australia's power system and QUADRUPLE the cost of POWER with his stupid 50% renewable Greeny plot to wreck Australia.

Even Clive Palmer is pushing more coal power stations.

Government considering preventing closure of baseload power facilities: Taylor
17/09/2018|1min

VIDEO: Coal for EVER and a DAY

The Energy Minister has told Sky News the government will consider introducing measures to stop the closure of facilities which provide reliable baseload power.

The divestment powers would prevent Australia's energy grid from losing large portions of reliable energy and stop the upward pressure on power prices.

Angus Taylor cited the Liddell Power Station in New South Wales as the type of asset the government needs to protect from closure.
