For the Woolloomooloo community and the people who cherish it. This is the real place in Sydney Australia.

“Unfortunately, people believe that because politicians talk about housing crisis, they’re sincere about doing something about it – that’s not going to happen… To be clear, nearly every other country has cheaper houses than us.

Writer #richardflanagan far too important to languish behind a paywall - such a demolition of the awful Segal who Albanese wrongly appointed to the untenable & unnecessary position of ‘special envoy’.
Absolutely a must read article if you value your democracy.
