Ok maybe I misspelled EVELEIGH but it’s ok to make an imperfect solidarity banner! Thankfully my comrades are fixing it 😬

If you live in Sydney and want to help us make more banners to defend Glebe and Eveleigh public housing send me a DM 🏡

@rachaeljacobs

I’m sure you’ll agree @rachaeljacobs did a much cooler one

@abcnews

Great to wake up to another bullshit #cropaganda story from @abcnews @ABCRural @JessSchremmer today! 🥰

Let's mark their work + see how they fared against the @AusUnemployment reporter's guide we prepared last yr to remind journos how to do their job.

@JessSchremmer

Look, almost everything you need is right there on p1 @JessSchremmer!

Are the ppl complaining in positions of power, do they want something? ✅

Will they get what they want by creating the false impression that unemployed ppl are lazy? ✅

Did they fail to provide evidence? ✅

@JessSchremmer

Had it occurred to you to simply ask workers at some of these farms about their views on this @JessSchremmer ... or literally anyone at all who had a different view to these #cropaganda artists?

@nytimes

3 yrs ago I signed up for a free trial of @nytimes

I’ve tried to unsubscribe a number of times + here’s why I failed 👇

@damiencave, wtf?

@nytimes

I am just gobsmacked by this. It really is reprehensible. Each time I have tried to do this I have given up because it has triggered anxiety.

A thread about how our 'welfare' system dehumanises, divides and gaslights us so that only the most desperate seek help, and then are punished for doing so. It’s about why the government thinks they can ignore disabled people in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic.

@lauramoates

Yesterday I spoke to @lauramoates about the social security horror show, COVID19 and why we need to #RaiseTheDSP. I spoke *a lot* so not everything made the cut. I want to share some of the things that couldn't be included in the story. theguardian.com/australia-news…

Politicians and lots of other people in the community have made the choice for a long time to be happy for people to starve or not be able to pay rent and to be homeless. And now, when all of a sudden a lot more of us are going to be in that situation, the government realises:
