    I have many Australian friends are who are currently unemployed who are skilled as pee the above list Can you please provide who or which companies need people before you bring more immigrants in. I am engaging an investigative reporter to follow this so the public are aware of what's going on as this is only to drive up house prices and Australian house ownership even further out of reach.
