Given Australia's housing crisis, which is significantly impacting renters - cf. e.g. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02... - i wonder at what point we'll start having rent strikes here? [ cc: @rahunion.bsky.social ] #auspol #housing #renting

URGENT CALL OUT - DEFEND PUBLIC HOUSING IN NORTH MELBOURNE **7am Tuesday, June 3** 33 Aflred St, North Melbourne Homes Victoria have commenced demolition work on public housing towers in North Melbourne while residents are still living there. Join us on the picket. Stop the demolition.

graphic which reads :

We won today but residents are still under threat! We need you to join the community picket starting tomorrow!

Residents have asked our community for support in resisting dangerous drilling works seemingly intended to drive them from their homes.

These works represent both a danger to residents and the beginning of the demolition for the towers.

We can’t let them take a finger or they’ll take the whole hand. Invite your friends, get involved, do a little even if you can’t do a lot.

As Unionists we know protest only works when it’s inconvenient. “social cohesion” means nothing when it’s complicit with planned poverty, colonialism, housing exploitation, climate disaster, and genocide! Join us at 5:30pm today Wednesday March 19, Vic Parliament, Spring Street #vicpol

A real estate agency has proudly displayed a satirical image of an old man with the caption: “The young man who waited for the price of real estate to come down.” Right alongside their property listings. The irony is almost too much.⁠ ⁠⁠ The housing crisis isn’t inevitable; it’s manufactured.⁠

Img Alt Text: Photograph of the front window display from a Real Estate Agent. Among the advertisements, there is a picture of an old man with the caption "The young man who waited for the price of Real Estate to come down."⁠ The text "Join RAHU" floats over the image.⁠
