My question is to the Prime Minister. Barron Valley Hotel owner Michael Nasser has warned your government's changes to working holiday-maker visas will see businesses fail left, right and centre. He said it will destroy regional Australia. There are backpackers here to do work that no-one else wants to do, and we actually need them. This is the worst government policy decision that I've heard of in my lifetime. Why do Australians always pay the price because the Prime Minister can't admit he's made a mistake?
