If you want to understand Australia’s housing crisis, look at what the government funds
We are living through the worst housing crisis in living memory. Rents are surging, home ownership is slipping further out of reach, and homelessness is rising and more persistent.

Excellent news. As far as I can tell Lidia Thorpe has done the whole Australian community a huge service as well as FN communities. Heroic! To be silent about the attempted bombing would encourage further acts of #violence. #auspol
"Independent Senator Lidia Thorpe has called out the "silence" of media & politics ... amid a successful senate motion by Thorpe (co-sponsored by senators Malarndirri McCarthy, Jana Stewart & Dorinda Cox, & passed without opposition) to condemn the attempted bombing of an Invasion Day rally."
