It’s a Bit Rich for Clover Moore to Kick Out the Homeless

Published On: 12/02/2015

Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore is being urged to spend more of the city’s spectacular wealth helping the homeless after council officers forcibly closed an inner-west shanty town, leaving 30 people without a roof over their heads.

City Councillor Edward Mandla slammed the council’s spending priorities after staff and police moved on the homeless ­beneath the light rail viaduct at the northern end of Wentworth Park yesterday.

“It you live in Millers Point public housing and vote for Clover, you have rights; if you live in a tent in the park and don’t vote, you get moved out,” Mr Mandla said. “It’s hard to accept that, in one of the world’s richest cities, with one of the richest councils, we haven’t been able to take care of the less fortunate.”
