We can't have a secure society when people's incomes don't cover life’s essentials. In his new blog, our Ralph Hartley explains how our politicians can work towards a #MinimumIncomeGuarantee that will provide the secure foundation we all need.. www.povertyalliance.org/blog-minimum...

The minimum income guarantee. Fair Work Strong Services. Better social security. A secure foundation for all of us to build a better future.
