Weeks to go.

4 men remain.

 

Safe and affordable homes remain scarce.

What $305 per week (40% of an aged pension) gets you in Sydney’s private rental market.

15m2.

A microwave if you are lucky.

A sink if you are lucky.

Someone else's bed.

A shared bathroom 2 floors down.

Neighbouring rooms with the doors kicked off the hinges.

 

My mate, Ray is not going to move there. No way.

 

This is the very sharpest end of the housing crisis.

Low cost and affordable housing closures have to stop.

 

Immediately.

 

The time has long passed.
