She is proposing instead a plan to create a 150-member &#8220;Citizens&#8217; Assembly&#8221; of rank-and-file Australians to decide . . . .

&#8220;I don&#8217;t support the idea of a big Australia with arbitrary targets of say, a 40 million-strong Australia or a 36 million-strong Australia,” she says. “We need to stop, take a breath and develop policies for a sustainable Australia.&#8221;
