Clover Moore and The Homeless
Submitted by nader on Wed, 18/02/2015 - 11:04pm
Dear Clover
I have read with concern about what happened at Wentworth Park and while I don't believe anything I read in The Daily Telegraph, I am still troubled by what the council did. (I know the stupid Tele attacks anything you do)
I read the statement on your website but it didn't really answer my worries.
You said that you didn't move anyone on or kick them out but why insist that they can't even have a tent?

Why is Begging Illegal in Victoria?
Submitted by 2060 on Sun, 24/08/2014 - 2:47pm
The Victorian police have started “cracking down’ on homeless people who beg for change on Melbourne streets
It’s claimed that the police have even “confiscated” the money given to beggars.
Why on earth is it ILLEGAL to ask people for money on the street in Victoria?
A charity group says they have witnessed police taking begging cups from destitute people who are sleeping rough.

What's the point of having NDIS funded domestic assistance if I am cut off the DSP and don't have a house?
If I am cut off DSP and moved to Newstart I will be unable to afford medications essential to life and I will die, perhaps after an extended expensive process of brain death.
I have conditions that can't be rehabilitated.
What's the point of a rehab plan?
What's the point of a return to work plan if there is no job and no ability to do a job properly or consistently?

HOMELESS FOLK. Homeless folk who are forever among us and public housing waiting lists are vastly different. We need Homeless Friendly cities and towns. Justice for ALL.
Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Tue, 24/05/2011 - 3:20pmHomeless people are among us, and often many turn a blind eye.
Homeless folk who live on the streets and in our parks are different in context to homelessness and waiting lists for public housing.
Unfortunately our governments do not take seriously enough the funding required to ensure adequate accommodation and adequate public housing.
