20.01.2022 Comrades, the Cashless Debit Card legislation is being debated in the Senate right now. If this bill passes, the card trial will be expanded beyond the current five sites. You can watch along here: https://www.aph.gov.au/News_and_Events/LiveMediaPlayer There is no evidence this income management scheme is effective, in fact all available evidence shows that it makes life harder. This scheme is designed to hurt those on social security while driving profits for the big politi...cal donors Labor and the Greens are planning to vote against this legislation, but this bill will be decided by the crossbench. If you have five minutes, call Senator Patrick and leave a message asking him to oppose this bill.

17.01.2022 Comrades, we are looking for volunteers keen to try some voice acting. It's super easy and a lot of fun.

14.01.2022 An important update. Additionally, we will be holding our last branch meeting for the year in Wollongong Library today (Monday 21/12) at 5:30pm.

01.01.2022 Comrades, due to the potential Wollongong COVID cluster, out of an abundance of caution we will be returning to online meetings for the time being. Our next meeting will be Monday, 4 January at 4:30pm, if you did not receive the email today please send a DM.
