@LeoVaradkar We have careers, we have degrees, we are highly skilled and highly educated. We were promised if we studied and worked hard we would be safe, we would have a comfortable life and you have crippled us into homelessness. Fix this.
@LeoVaradkar I sat in a room this week with incredibly strong and creative women, who have cried because they cannot find a home, been evicted and even more of my friends will be made homeless because of your government. If you have any respect for human life, you will fix this.

✨ We are very excited about the easing of restrictions in Friday's Government announcement and the return of artistic, cultural and live experiences. We are currently working out what this means for our programme and will be making a few adjustments - where we can.
@LeoVaradkar Neither do you. We dont need more homes sure, we need to be able to afford the ones you built and gave away. But thats not possible either. Tell me, where do I live? Australia? Nz? Because theres no way I can afford to buy here.
The word is out! 🥳
