'Tongue in cheek': Gold Coast mayor suggests busing homeless to Byron Bay
'Tongue in cheek': Gold Coast mayor suggests busing homeless to Byron Bay

April 15, 2025 • By Dominic Cansdale

Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate has suggested offering homeless people a free bus ride to relocate to Byron Bay. The proposal comes after the council issued move-on notices to a group of homeless campers at Carey Park in Southport. However, homelessness specialists have criticized the idea, saying it would be a "bandaid response" and fail to address the underlying causes of homelessness. The City of Gold Coast, the state government, and support services are working towards a solution, with Housing Minister Sam O'Connor urging people to take up offered support, including hotel or motel accommodation and state-funded services. Experts argue that evicting rough sleepers does not address the root causes of homelessness, which include housing, income, and health and social community supports.

USAID cuts rip through African health care systems
USAID cuts rip through African health care systems

April 15, 2025 • By Afp

The withdrawal of American funding by President Donald Trump has led to the closure of clinics in Nigeria, resulting in a lack of free drugs and mosquito nets. This has severely impacted healthcare systems across Africa, particularly in conflict-hit areas. Malaria cases are expected to peak at the end of the rainy season, and threatened cuts to global vaccine funding may be felt later in the year. The effects of the cuts are being felt in various countries, including Mali, South Sudan, and Kenya, where malnutrition clinics have shut down, supply chains are disrupted, and refugee camps are facing medicine shortages. Experts warn that the poorest communities will be the most affected, and the damage to healthcare systems will be long-lasting.
