And by excessive heat, they mean heat that can and will kill you. Your worksite isn’t going to pull you off the site in a heatwave. Your boss isn’t going to miss his deadline. Your safety is a cost they’ve already decided they can afford to sacrifice.

Workers pay the price. Farmworkers, laborers, construction workers, dying in record heatwaves. Fatalities doubling since the 1990s. Extreme weather wiping out jobs and livelihoods. Big Oil knew. They chose profit over people. Climate change is a labor issue. Always has been.

Only the Greens will cap rent increases so you can afford your home, and even save for the future. For rent you can afford - for a future where you can actually afford a home of your own - join our campaign now: ellensandell.com/issue/rent-con…

Many large urban buildings would benefit from porosity - voids to provide breezes, light and space for social interaction Love how this is captured in this visualisation by Carlos Bannon

"In recent weeks, three members of our community have died on the street, or in a tent in a park in greater Brisbane. The community needs more funding to provide integrated health services so we can reach people on the street and help prevent premature deaths." brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queen…

Real estate agents are “calling for mental health resources for tenants navigating rental stress and homelessness, trauma training and support for property managers dealing with high-risk situations” because of examples like this where tenants would rather end their lives than continue their struggle.

You may have caught last week's news that the ACT's Auditor General found no compliance measures have been taken to ensure landlords adhere to new standards for ceiling insulation. Our deputy director Bernie spoke to ABC Canberra about the issue—listen below.

Further thoughts from me. The haters will say I am still jealous - go for it. Maybe next term Albo could spend more political capital helping the young/homeless/disabled get a home, and less on helping himself to another 🥲 meanjin.com.au/essays/thou-sh…

What people don't seem to understand is when an already vulnerable person is cut off their only payment its setting them up to die. They can't afford rent or board so lose their housing. They can no longer access food or medical care including prescriptions. Its cruelty

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP. It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next. 1/

@BrentHodgson @pharnzwurth and believe indies would work with Greens and other crossbenchers on whistleblowing. On housing though, afaict many indies lack the Greens commitment to real change at necessary scale.

@BrentHodgson @pharnzwurth When the Greens had a stand off with Labor trying to get any real budget contributions for renters or homeless, Pocock ran with Labor's (misleading) line that such negotiations obstructed building homes and sided with Labor, not renters. I back independents over majors, but 1/2

If the major parties want to rush through legislation before the election, and can’t bear to focus on housing or cost of living, then how about something meaningful – like this?
David Pocock@DavidPocock

The xbench leads major parties in the push for integrity reforms AGAIN Honour to stand with @WilkieMP, @helenhainesindi & Senator Lambie to introduce the Whistleblower Protection Authority Bill. We need to expose corruption & ensure whistleblowers are protected, not prosecuted.

Kept working until her knees gave out, close to having to live in her car, but doesn't want to be a "burden". We've made it impossible for renters to survive retirement, and yet Lyn feels like she's "letting people down". Can't upset the landlords tho! abc.net.au/news/2025-02-1…

Sue on police: "[They are] paid significantly more, and are much better resourced, than other essential workers like nurses and teachers. A society that cuts back on... social services in favour of ever more police and prisons is a society that has failed."
