Because I'm now moving out I'm probably safe to say that this news article was about my house, although I'm not one of the tenants that took the Landlord to tribunal. I may also say, my landlord was a candidate in 2023 for the ACT party, how funny!

@cjsbishop Subjecting people who literally cannot work due to physical or mental illness (49%) who are on the same welfare due to the last national government to constant pressure to go back into work will not help with the cost of living crisis. Increasing disability benefits would.
