- The special episodes have been great
To Rum’s perfect storm I’d like to add cost shifting.
I deal with a few ‘working retired’ people in a Sydney council - I love the term
And the episode on homelessness was great

Australia5 months ago - better than nothing
It doesn't compare with local newspapers which I still miss years after we lost ours. I want to know more of what's going on in SE Melbourne area where I have a vote, and a lot less about Tassie or Sydney or some place where I don't. But - better than nothing 😳
