I joined a solid door knocking session this afternoon with volunteers in Granville, Sydney. There were many Yes voters at the doors with as many undecided. We can only win this referendum if we do the hard work. Join us at Please donate too. #yes23

@LukeBartolo1 Greens in the inner west actively oppose building new housing, or amplify the fears of the community to get others to mobilise against it. Absent new housing to bring down the price, rich parents are the alternate solution. So yeah, effectively it is their policy.

@TimWilsonMP Do you think that publicly shaming people who are admitted swinging voters is what's going to get you over the line?

I’m devastated. But the inner west voted 77% Yes and that’s something to be very proud of. This is the start, not the end. 🖤💛❤️

1. I love pubs and I’m fine with heritage listing individual pubs. 2. Without customers - esp a continuing renewal of young people- pubs close and that is sad. 3. We should build apartments on top of pubs. No complaining allowed.

Heritage: Why?

Heritage policy cannot force pub owners to continue operating the same business. This is why I think we should be more open to putting apartments on top of pubs, especially since the new people living there would probably be customers of the pub.

I am pretty thrilled about being a guest on @SydneyYIMBY ’s panel about housing abundance! We have got to get to better policy solutions, and I’m excited to explore what they are! 🏡🏠

@mrbenjaminlaw Please know that this full-scale replica of The Oz was on newspaper racks next to all the other papers in the cafe. The front-page double-takes were something to behold. The university-specific snark inside had us howling.

I'm already on the record as being a HUGE Christie Whelan fan (I saw Muriel the Musical twice! Her Mad As characters are the funniest!) - but this is just so much sweeter 😍😍😍😍 Listen to Christie!!

If anyone thinks Leichhardt has lost it, Jeff Fenech has his Lambo parked half in and half out of a no-parking zone outside this pizza place on Marion St rn. He’s in the window eating spaghetti Napoli without a care in the world.

Yeah. That’s exactly it. Women would leave bad husbands. 21year olds could leave home. 30 year olds still in share houses could get their own place. It’s so sad we aren’t willing to give this to people.

If Aust is missing 1.3m houses who would live in them? How many couples would dissolve? 360k Group houses some of them? Some young adults leave family homes? 1.3m is a lot of household formation tho!
