Represent SYN Media

A few weeks ago Nyah, Bridie and Freddie chatted to Shorna Moore, a social justice lawyer and advocate at the Melbourne City Mission, about the Home Time Campaign, which aims to fix the housing system in Australia for young people.

Nearly 40 thousand young people between the ages of 15 and 24 do not have somewhere to live each night, and the Home Time campaign is proposing all levels of government take action on developing youth tenancies, youth independence transitional services and addressing the rental gap in the current housing crisis.

For more information and to sign onto the campaign you can visit www.hometime.org.au.

We talk about regulations around graphic content on X (Twitter), the rejection of a second Medically Supervised Injecting Room in Melbourne, the appointment of Ellen Sandell as the new leader of the Victorian Greens, and a segment [disclaimer, we ran overtime and the end of this discussion is cut short] about political gifts, what the rules are and some fun examples.
