This is a pretty spectacular take from the REIA
It's your own fault you are so desperate to avoid homelessness that you offer extra money to get a roof over your head - it has nothing to do with the people withholding access to housing unless you give them the most money...
A lack of housing will be an impediment to realising the Territory’s economic opportunities and potential. Time for an urban housing plan as wait lists skyrocket #ntpol#TERC https://t.co/mUaHTGcTgX
@unionsaustralia Finally recognition the rate is not high enough to survive all because white upper class people had to access it, get a conscience Scomo.....
The PM's claims that the Jobseeker rate is discouraging people from working is a regression to old myths and tropes used to demonise people who are accessing income support #RetainTheRate#JobSeeker
A survey of 955 Centrelink recipients shows that people are spending the higher payments on desperately needed essentials like fresh fruit and vegetables, utility bills and warm winter clothes, transforming lives. JobSeeker can’t drop back to $40 a day. #RaiseTheRateForGood
