This is in response to police and McHanon fencing arrived in the morning to fence off a zone. At least one activist was arrested.
Please show up and tell Homes NSW, McMahon Service & NSW police their thuggery is unacceptable.

While Bellambi estate currently sits at 93 percent public housing, under the proposal, just 30 per cent will be “dedicated to social housing” (not even public housing)
The Waterloo redevelopment, which will take ten to fifteen years to complete, will result in a net gain of roughly 240 social housing units. And when you compare this with the NSW social housing waitlist of 69,051 households, the logic of demolishing existing public housing to increase the net total slightly over a ten-year period doesn’t make sense.
