Sorry, Madam President. Former prime minister Scott Morrison made it very clear that his government didn't care about international students, didn't care about educational institutions and, most importantly, didn't care about those who relied on them to support their families. The message to parents of international students was that the Morrison government didn't care about their children and didn't want them here. In a single press conference the former Prime Minister caused a massive setback to a $40.3 billion industry.
