This is hitting too close to home to feel complacent about the lack of #SocialHousing

โ€œAn Indigenous woman, living in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, gave birth to twins in a tent. One of those babies died. In a tent. Where their parents were living, because the waiting list for social housing in their area is up to seven years. The Sydney Morning Heraldโ€™s Amber Schultz has reported nearly 700 people are on the social housing waitlist in Wagga Wagga, a city with fewer than 70,000 residents.โ€ (Source: https://www.thenewdaily.com.au/news/politics/australian-politics/2026/05/06/baby-tent-housing-interest-rates )

One in a Hundred without a decent roof over their heads. Think about that as if one of them was you.

If the federal Govt is inept at solving the #HousingCrisis problem in the #Riverina electorate, then letโ€™s elect a representative who will push an inept #NSW #Labor govt to step into the breach. And while weโ€™re at it, letโ€™s make sure the local #Councillors we elect to the #WaggaWaggaCouncil also have #Housing front and centre on their mind.

We can be better than this folks. We donโ€™t have to put up with the crap weโ€™re given by those love-sick on power at any cost. Think about our community, the whole of our community when you vote next time in #Federal or #State #elections. This is not about you or me, itโ€™s about all of us in the Riverina. Safe housing, free healthcare, and social services delivery must be foremost on our minds. The other things that are making our lives miserable we can overcome once weโ€™re all safely housed and in better shape to do somthing about them. Because of course we must, all of us, do something about them too.

A tragic birth, and death, in a tent โ€“ and still our poorest must pay

This happened because we stopped caring about people having basic needs. Housing is no longer considered shelter, it is considered an asset.
