RAHU unequivocally supports our member Margaret Kelly who has taken a strong stance against the Victorian state government who have marked her home, Barak Beacon - a public housing estate - for demolition, so that they may replace it with private and social housing.

The demolition of Barak Beacon has begun around the edges of the estate while Margaret continues to live there. This is despite no contracts being awarded to any organisation to begin the process of building new homes.

The destruction of public housing is purely ideological; to continue the relentless push for housing commodification. There's not a single worthwhile economic or moral argument for these developments. All they do is make housing unaffordable for everyday people.

If saving public housing is important to you, then join the fight to save estates such as Barak Beacon.
