Just out of #Budget2022 lock-up for @Brotherhoodinfo. Positive steps for the early years, women, housing, skills, climate & community services. Sadly not enough to address the pressures exacerbating poverty & disadvantage right now. This needs to be a bigger national priority

I've written a piece in @theage today on why poverty is a policy choice, and why Australia needs to make ending poverty a much greater national priority theage.com.au/national/make-… @Brotherhoodinfo @CentrePolicyDev

Make no mistake, poverty is a policy choice

The question we should be asking those running for public office is how many Australians will come out of poverty if they win?
