Single frame. Chris Minns stands beside a massive tonne weight marked NSW POLICE being lowered by a crane. Visible sticking out from under the weight are hands, legs, a woman’s face, a keffiyeh and placards saying “NO TO GENOCIDE”, “FREE PALESTINE”, “HERZOG OUT”, “NO TO VIOLENCE” Minns says, “Thst should socially cohere them nicely.”

Cohesion.

I’m shocked to read this. This affordable housing agreement has created second class citizens who can’t enter the building via the main entrance.

Shame on the developers and NSW Government for allowing this to happen.
