Mehreen Faruqi Instagram – Young people are entering their adult lives full of worry and stress, facing compounding pressures from the housing and cost of living crises, to ballooning student debt.
Let me be clear: the government could today choose to lift people out of poverty. They could raise income support payments above the poverty line, freeze rents to ease housing pressures, and make TAFE and uni free.
Poverty has always been a political choice. Labor can choose to give young people a brighter future, they just refuse to. | Posted on 11/Jun/2024 07:51:01
