#MoretonBay
One Sunday morning as I went walking
By #Brisbane waters I chanced to stray
I heard a convict his fate bewailing
As on the sunny river bank I lay.
I am a native from #Erin ‘s island
But banished now from my native shore
They stole me from my aged parents
And from the maiden I do adore.

A native of Cashell, County #Tipperary Sworn to be a tyrant's foe
And while I've life I'll crow

Queensland council blocked from evicting homeless people sleeping in tents at city park
Supreme Court finds City of Moreton Bay’s eviction of rough sleepers placed them at ‘serious risk of harm from being exposed to the elements’ -
The City of Moreton Bay claims homeless people “consented” to having their tents and belongings – including a woman’s daughter’s ashes – thrown in the bin. This is what passes for policy now?
We’re criminalising poverty, bulldozing dignity, and calling it governance. Fines over $8,000 for sleeping rough, yet zero accountability for systemic failure.
If this is the norm, we’re in deep moral decline.#homelessness #australia #housingcrisis #humanrights #moretonbay #poverty #socialjustice #brisbane #auspol

Our family loves going out on the river or bay in our little 4.3m caper cat #sailing catamaran, designed and built in #Brisbane. We're thinking about upgrading to a slightly bigger, but still trailerable, keelboat of some flavour. Somewhere around 6m, like a farr 5/6000, kestrel 18, sun 2000, castle 650, etc.
Under 1.3 tonnes towed with a cabin to get out of the sun, and a sit-down cockpit. Any suggestions?

City of Moreton Bay Clears Homeless Camps, Discards Belongings.
The City of Moreton Bay Council has started removing tents and personal belongings of rough sleepers as part of a crackdown on "illegal" homeless encampments.
Early Wednesday morning, council rangers and police began dismantling campsites north of Brisbane, leaving those without shelter with even fewer options.#MoretonBay #Homelessness #HousingCrisis #BetterNotBigger #Greed

You'd think that after all the money that developers have funnelled into #MoretonBay over the years, council might greenlight more humane—and durable—solutions to the #housing crisis.
But no. Apparently, property values in (checks notes) #DBay are more important.
