Patrick Morrow spoke with resident Margaret Kelly and other fellow residents at the Save Barak Beacon housing estate rally last week, discussing the Port Melbourne public housing estate refurbishment where Kelly demanded a meeting with Housing Minister Colin Brooks, regarding her relocation and the situation for other residents. The government has delivered a stance. "We acknowledge that moving home can be difficult, but to deliver more than 300 new and much-needed social and affordable homes at Barak Beacon, we need to relocate any remaining residents. Margaret has been offered three separate modern, spacious and accessible homes nearby but has refused to engage with Homes Victoria to explore the suitability of these homes. If she chooses to, Margaret will have priority access to return to one of the newly constructed homes at Barak Beacon once the redevelopment is complete. This important project will revitalise the Barak Beacon community and allow more people to make Port Melbourne their home," says a Victorian Government spokesperson. Grace speaks with Jordan Guiao, author of "Disconnect: Why We Get Pushed to Extremes Online & How to Stop It?" discussing the current internet situation following the rise of AI and the importance to support media diversity. Breakfast presenter Priya Kunjan speaks with Executive Director of Digital Rights Watch, James Clark, about the use in Australia of "landlord tech" such as Snug, which has attracted scrutiny after revelations about its dubious method of "scoring" of rental applications in a Guardian exclusive late last year. Snug has been engaged by Homes Victoria to develop a platform to allocate affordable housing in the state via random ballot, raising additional concerns about the nature and use of this technology. Snug continues to be used in 2023. (This conversation was originally broadcast on February 23rd 2023) Claudia spoke with ABC producer, Evan Wallace, discussing the current situation in Mparntwe, Alice Springs, and the importance of independent media. Grace speaks with David Mejia-Canales, senior lawyer at Human Rights Lawyer Centre discussing anti-protest laws, and their impact, including the need to support HRLC for defending rights. To allow HLRC to continue defending the rights to protest, help support by donating to their Fairer Future Appeal 2023 donation.
