Housing; critics doubt govt claims - Lilith7 - 12-08-2024
Apparently, there are a lot of doubting Thomas's out there who don't believe that this govt has actually managed to house 1000 children rather than temporary housing in motels. They say that if govt cuts down on emergency housing, that means more people living in cars or becoming homeless.
It is quite difficult to see exactly how cracking down on unruly Kainga Ora tenants and emergency housing tenants will help, since those people they've 'cracked down' on will pesumably become homeless as a result.

And this is unlikely to help either...

They're pretty good at bashing beneficiaries,too, going by tonights news. It seems to be all about control.
