#housingcrsis — Public Fediverse posts

In this article, Leith van Onselen skirts around what has been a cornerstone of his previous arguments that Victoria’s investor targeted land tax hikes that have arguably made housing more accessible for first home buyers. Instead, he veers into vague statements about the state’s economy being ‘weak’ and ‘crime’ being a concern, without evidence or explanation. If he truly prioritised readers, he’d lean into the policy discussion he used to champion and not include superficial and distracting comments that detract from a meaningful dialogue on affordability.

Formerly, when housing stock was in the control of the local authority, you could make FoI requests for important documents regarding your home. However, that right didn't follow when our homes were transferred to RSLs. Please consider signing and sharing this petition to restore that right. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/661507
