City Limits - saving public housing from privatisation!

Wednesday, 21 February 2018 - 9:00am to 10:00am

In the round-up of the news this week, we take a look at 'business bashing', tax cuts, Woolworths' treatment of cleaning staff, and the effects of mining waste in Australia and Papua New Guinea. 

Sue Bolton is a Socialist Alliance councillor in Moreland, and gives us some really important insights into the current situation in public housing - up to 11 housing estates to be demolised, with tenents being pushed into agreeing to relocate.

Shane McGrath from Housing for the Aged Action group then joins us in the second half of the show, with some good news as well as further discussion of the issues. 

Wednesday 9:00am to 10:00am
Urban environment issues, analysing government services, both federal and state and local campaigns.
