I'm watching Dick Smith on ABC TV National Press Club...
OMG is he giving the journos a full on spray... Love it.
I watched it too, him and Mr (can't recall his first name) Turner, founder and managing director of Flight Centre were both in unison on their views about our increasing population boom and immigration outstripping our ability to provide services, jobs and housing.
I think most of us living in the Metro areas would know how hard it is now to get into see a doctor or hospital treatment now and the traffic and parking problems, etc, etc......made a lot of sense, I hope they repeat the program, it would be well worth watching for anyone that didn't see it.

David Suzuki was telling our government that over 30 years ago. All the pollies care about is fattening their own wallets. The'yre not going to have to worry about the mess they've created after they've gone. He also added the fact that we won't be able to feed ourselves either.
I'd better stop there, or I'll be ranting about that subject forever.
Cheers,
