In terms of immigration and the news, it always amazes me as to what attracts headlines and what seemingly fades out of view very quickly. We have had two major announcements over the last six months in relation to a fairly major change to our Skilled Migrant Category - those got some attention, but within a few hours, the only people talking about them were advisers.

This week, the current coalition Government announced a multi-choice quiz to be introduced as part of our citizenship application process and everyone has gone a bit nuts. Some are calling this “an attack on migrants” (a bit extreme) and others are saying this is nothing more than click-bait and a vote grab. As usual the answer is probably closer to anything political than any sort of deep dark conspiracy against migrants.
