New South Wales Premier Chris Minns has acknowledged the impacts of the migration influx on Australia’s infrastructure but says One Nation’s approach of turning those concerns into an argument over multiculturalism is “a step too far.”

“I’ve grown up in multicultural Sydney, I’m raising my family in Sydney and it’s the best country and the best city in the world,” he said.
