The People's Commission into the Housing Crisis is on now! People from all walks of life sharing their stories of housing stress and insecurity, as the Commission explores the solutions needed to fix Australia's housing crisis. Watch here: https://t.co/86oRf2j6qq
It's always great when @DougCameron51 is speaking about housing. Today at @_EverybodysHome Peoples Commission day 1: "Restoring #publichousing as a legitimate and important component of the Australian housing sector must be a priority for all Governments."
A young Australian on Youth Allowance can't afford to rent ANYWHERE, according to this new report from @anglicare_aust. Time to #RaiseTheRate https://t.co/tiKxN10x8q
Thanks @10NewsFirstMelb for sharing the amazing work the community and Troy do down in South Melbourne. They’re feeding thousands of people every week. #publichousing
A remarkable resident of one of Melbourne's public housing towers is working around the clock to source donated food to create a community pantry, which feeds thousands. The program was launched with government funding but has since run dry | @CandiceWyatt10
Our community needs public housing. We are calling on the Victorian Government to reverse its decision to have all public housing towers torn down by 2051. The estates in Flemington, North Melbourne and Carlton are the first sites planned to go by 2031 https://t.co/k2AJpQBqtc
The Housing Statement is out. There are some positive steps forward, but the big question is - who will manage the new homes replacing our existing high rises? These homes have always been #publichousing, they must stay that way. 👀our full response 🔗 https://t.co/LOeLJMhudj
A positive step forward today, with a further 769 new homes for Victorians on the waiting list on the way. We continue to advocate for these new homes to be publicly managed #publichousing. https://t.co/eiJlz7mxSR
Not a moment too soon! 🎉🎉🎉
Thrilled that a pipeline of federal funding for stock growth has been secured. Now to make sure as many homes as possible can be publicly owned and managed, proper #publichousing
Victoria's #publichousing renters deserve access to solar panels on their homes to keep their energy costs down. People are being forced to make difficult decisions everyday just to eat and pay their bills. https://t.co/gAaN1L7Cyh @VCOSS
The Commonwealth Games are a golden opportunity to leave a meaningful and significant housing legacy for Victoria.
But the Games also come at a critical time—we’re already dealing with ballooning rents and a shortage of public and community housing.

Dear landlords,
Renters are not cash cows.
If you’re lucky enough to own an investment property, you’re doing ~okay~.
It would be utterly unfair and unjustified to pass on land tax increases to your tenants.
