Megaphone Man loses Round 5
 
The continuing dispute between Megaphone Man and local druggies including Julie Mann, Sue Koumidis and the dealer from the shooting-up room continues. Somehow, the cunning drug junkies have engineered a dispute between Megaphone Man and his two shared-wall neighbours who bought their unit from the Housing Trust.  
 
Megaphone Man side-swiped the car of the woman neighbour leaving a streak along its side. He said it had been blocking his entry from the Housing Trust carpark into a parking area next to his unit.
 
Megaphone Man has a heart condition and gained permission from the local Council to cross Council land to reach his Housing Trust unit despite HousingSA not wanting him to do this. Megaphone Man’s reason for parking next to his unit was that a druggie neighbour named Julie Mann had repeatedly smashed his car’s windows and stolen anything inside. She’s faced repeated police charges in the Port Adelaide Magistrates’ Court over this.
 
Anyway, the two unit owners confronted Megaphone Man at his front door allegedly shouting, “Come out you weak bastard,” and “You’re going to pay for this,” and “We got you on something, now.”
 
Megaphone Man rushed from his unit in a ferocious rage that put the fear of death into his two shared-wall neighbours. He ran back and forth across his front yard throwing his massive weight against their fence that appeared about to collapse. This was the expensive fence they’d built around their unit to keep out the local drug dealers and Semaphore Park lunatics.
 
After they retreated, he hung his megaphone over the high fence and shouted loudly enough that Michelle, a Salvation Army employee, could hear the racket at her house in the next street.
 
That was when Megaphone Man was tackled in something similar to a “coward’s punch” by the adult son of a local Ice dealer. Megaphone Man suffered a bruised jaw and a bleeding eye socket from the surprise attack. Someone called the police, but instead of arresting both of them, they determined Megaphone Man was the culprit and took him to the Port Adelaide police station.
 
Police released Megaphone Man at 3:00am. They issued an intervention order and bail conditions after charging him with damaging the fence. They put him on a night curfew from 10:00pm to 7:00am. The police can do that. This was later reduced from 11:00pm to 5:00am. They confiscated his megaphone and hockey stick.
 
Later the next day, six local drug junkies milled outside his fence and provided hours of legal surveillance video. They appeared confused, but like typical druggies their eyes were trained to watch every detail of their surroundings. This is crucial for quickly spotting buyers and suppliers to make quick transactions before the police arrive. The live view is legally viewable anywhere in the world by anyone given the password by Megaphone Man.
 
Megaphone Man finds it an irony that one of his immediate neighbours works in an industry helping disabled people yet she finds herself allied with Ice and dope dealers against himself who doesn’t touch drugs.  
 
 “I know I’ve been set up,” he recently said after realising that the drug junkies had been pretending they were against his fiancé to get him to react. And he’d fallen for it. And his shared-wall neighbours had fallen for it.
 
His counter-measure has been to lodge a complaint of trespass against his shared-wall neighbours. He says he won’t pay for car repairs as the streak requires little more than a wipe from a damp rag. He will declare bankruptcy rather than pay for it.
 
His doctor says the blood will clear from his  eyes and the soreness in his jaw will recede after being knocked around by the dealer’s son. But after ten days it hasn’t cleared.
 
As to his behaviour he doesn’t shy away from responsibility and says, “I felt ashamed of myself to begin with and then I thought to myself, no, I meant it. Why would I do something if I didn’t mean to do it. They were on their knees, begging me to stop it.” And when the other man knocked Megaphone Man down from a coward’s punch, the shared-wall neighbours didn’t appear to welcome his contribution despite them “all working in cahoots together.”
 
As to the neighbourhood, “From the moment the sun comes up in the morning to when the sun goes down at night there is literally no movement. People go through the back doors of their house or over their fence, anywhere else, but past my house.”
 
Meanwhile, the Housing Trust has investigated getting an eviction order in the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (SACAT). They want Megaphone Man out. The shared-wall neighbours have also gone to the police and Housing Trust in attempts to have him evicted.
 
But Megaphone Man has an ace up his sleeve. He was recently accepted as a National Disability Insurance Scheme (N.D.I.S.) client making it difficult for him to be evicted. How do you make homeless a man with a life-threatening heart complaint that’s required three-hundred Emergency Department visits to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital over the past ten years? These include alligator clips sent up arteries to grab a chunk of his heart tissue for analysis. And often monthly stints as an in-patient on blood thinners to dissolve clots.  
 
This means the Housing Trust has been forced to seek an alternative means of dislodging Megaphone Man who has discovered a tenancy advocacy service more powerful than the T.I.A.S. or its silly government-funded replacement, RentRightSA, operated by that crooked outfit called SYC -HYPA.
 
This new group is called Intensive Tenancy Services (ITS). It is embedded in various government funded agencies and the Housing Trust. Not strangely, the Housing Trust didn’t advise Megaphone Man of its existence inside the Housing Trust as it didn’t initially want him to use it since they were trying to evict him.
 
Intensive Tenancy Services (ITS) are available via Homeless Connect (formerly the Homeless Gateway) across St Vincent Street from the Port Adelaide Housing Trust. They help tenants maintain their tenancies in extreme circumstances.
 
So, ITS, the Housing Trust and Megaphone Man’s various social workers and doctors have formed a committee to discuss options for his transfer to other accommodation. Of course, they could have bypassed all this by offering him an unattached Housing Trust property in another suburb.
 
And Megaphone Man has made it clear to his team that if they aren’t on board 100%, then get off. And it's true, Megaphone Man lost Round 5, but he's coming out looking good in Round 6. 
 
The story continues…

(above) Being poisoned is an occupational hazard in more ways than one while being homeless. it may be poison food from homeless services, polluted water from anywhere or herbicides and pesticides on the ground. The Anglicare Food Barn at Elizabeth served boiled vegetables and salads made from slimy vegetables. You could taste and smell the stench. (Adelaide Homeless Journal February 2021).

Watching how long a good Housing Trust house stays empty
Part 2

The Housing Trust has moved quickly on preparing the vacant two-bedroom fifteen-year old house for the next tenant. At week six, they’ve already sent an electrician to disconnect the wiring to a rickety shed in the backyard.
 
Another worker has pulled down the blinds and thrown them in a heap on the floor. Yet another has removed a door frame and some skirting boards and pulled out the air-conditioner. The gutter was also cleaned by a couple of Indians.
 
This is exceptionally fast response time for the Housing Trust and if things keep going at this frantic pace there might be a tenant by late 2021.
 
Part 3 next fortnight

ShelterSA not taking any chances
 
ShelterSA passed a motion pertaining to disbandment at their 2020 AGM. They changed the rules requiring three-quarters of voting members required to disband the organisation from its previous two-thirds required. They’re not taking any chances. This is how dire things have become.
 
Why doesn’t ShelterSA publish its financial report along with its AGM report? The Hutt Street Centre publishes their financial figures alongside their annual reports. Very professional.

Housing Choices eats Catherine House
 
Why would Catherine House let itself be taken over by Housing Choices? Housing Choices aren’t even from South Australia.
 
Catherine House might have been run by Catholic feminists, but at least they are better than the Orwellian Housing Choices outfit. Did the Catherine House crowd start believing their own propaganda and this lead them to believe the Housing Choices propaganda?  Hiring Linda Matthews was possibly the worst mistake Catherine House every made.
 
Their joint media release stated that, ”Both organisations share a proud history of providing housing and support services.”  
 
A large component of these trauma recovery housing outfits is abosorbing money from the actual building of houses and transferring it to their phsycologists, social workers and the pharmaceutical industry. Doing the trauma recovery routine becomes a prerequisite for getting welfare housing. We need solid houses with solid doors and smash-proof windows and less salaried professional therapists pushing pharmaceutical drugs.

“This St Vinnies proxy says that there's heaps of empty rentals in the cbd, air bnbs ect. They could reduce rental Pressure and reduce homelessness.”

Editor: Thanks for that, Rags-to-Riches. Wasn’t it a safe media release. Generalised suggestions for commercial property rentals that were effectively socialist welfare ideology. Okay for another era, but not when the government is borrowing money the millennials will have to pay back or cede Australia’s sovereignty.
 
The media release did not say not a word about the Housing Trust or Anglicare keeping good units and houses empty for months, even years. Not a word. ShelterSA is pathetic, meaningless. The Doctor must be caught in some 1970’s time warp. Or she’s afraid of challenging the so-called “non-profits” that have become huge beasts.

Hutt Street Centre fundraising and ***
The Night Talker
 
Re: "Hutt Street Centre"........Help and ***?

I clicked on the link and read the article about helping women like ***? I am a woman and therefore before we going any further, I agree that helping "homeless" women (and or any homeless person) is important.

But let's go back to ***? Now is this an actress or the actual person? You be the judge, but the woman in the advert, looks to be somewhere between 70 and 80 years of age! (I could be wrong here, I mean she could be a really unwell, 35 year old, Heroin addict (but I don't think so?) also her background history...ones gotta ask, when did she leave home? At age 69? If *** is now say 75 years of age, and we do some basic maths and say, *** left home at age sixteen, that would have been 59 years ago (and or around 1962) (even if she left home earlier and or maybe a bit later) it would still come as the early 1960's. (I mean the scenario talks about being involved in some kind of ... [abuse] with her [step] father and brother, so unless both of these people are still alive (today) and were/are abusing her in their 80's and 90's, (it's possible but unlikely) I imagine this happened whilst she was a teenager, back in the sixties. And then shortly afterwards she got assaulted at work, (what kind of work are we talking about here, given she is only 16) and ended up homeless...So *** has been homeless since when, 1962/1963?

Christ, she has done well, to survive on the streets for ALMOST SIXTY YEARS!!! People's this story I am afraid, is a LOAD OF OLD CROCK! It's more likely that "***" if she does exist, got married early (its very common for young women to go straight from an abusive/dysfunctional and or poverty stricken, family home) straight into exactly the same marriage situation, often whilst already pregnant, before marriage. Then its popping out several children (often very close together) and life just becomes one perpetual, slow motion train wreck.........

(Which is sad and I am not denigrating anyone who has lived a hard life) but "***" has not been on the streets for nearly 60 years!!! She was young at a time, when you could live in the same SAHT house essentially for life and the unmarried and or deserted wives pension (when it come out in the early 1970's) was generous enough to survive on. Uni and TAFE and the WEA were free, so if you had the brains and willingness to succeed, you could train to be a teacher or social worker, nurse, or bookkeeper. So she actually was a young person, when their was a LOT of opportunities, high employment, and career choices.
 
So? Finally, I want to know, what employment the Hutt Street Centre is hoping to find for ***, given she "appears" to be a lady in her mid 70's? I would love to know how they are going to achieve this, given that people in their 20's and 30's, are struggling to find employment, at this point in time. Finally (one last point) Why does this advert, look like it has sponsored by the Council for the Aging? Are not younger people at risk of homelessness too?

The Night Talker

Second Editor: *** might be younger than she appears from being in the sun too much. *** seems to be okay, but she was used by the Hutt Street Centre to raise money via Raisely, one of those professional and dodgy fundraising outfits. 

It's hard to say no when some joint like the Hutt Street Centre does something free for you. I was at a free dentist when Channel 7 turned up. When I wouldn't let them poke the camera up against my face while I was open-mouthed in the chair, the dentist was made to kick me out before a scheduled second filling was done. 

If *** is a genuine person and not an actor, then a life of being shoved around since childhood makes it hard to say no to the Hutt Street Centre to have her past described on the Hutt Street Centre website. 

I apologise for blocking some of the details of your post, Night Talker, but after reading again what the Hutt Street Centre wrote about the elderly woman, and including her image, and then you inferring, correctly, I believe, it seemed that her identity should be protected, if she is a real person. I've removed the active link from the original post. The Hutt Street Centre exploited her by writing about her "abuse". No one is fooled by that word.

​The Brittany Higgins industry creating more victims
from Sad Old Windpipe

News has come out of a rape in nsw in 1998, by a now cabinet minister. Anthony albanese is calling for the pm to sack him.

The victim was 16 and in Feb last year approached sapol. The nsw cops couldn't come and interview her because of covid. In June last year she withdrew her complaint and Committed suicide. Letter were sent Last week to Sarah Hanson young and penny wong, with a Copy of the dead person's statement.

One of them went to the media

If you look at the list of cabinet ministers, 5 were in nsw in 1988

One was morriston. Aint him
2 were in primary school.
1 In uni and. One just out of uni.

The last 2 both have wives and daughters, one of them is innocent. But if I can narrow this down to 2, so can others. And they'll be thinking things about an innocent man.
Maybe the innocent man's Daughters have narrowed it down like I have.. Whoever leaked it to the media no better than a rapist.
the two Politicians who received the letter are feminists, both have said some pretty serious extremist shit over the years. They've hijacked a tragic event to push thier attacks on men and throwing mud at innocent men and thier families, thier wives and daughters. It's really sick shit, when you see it for what it is

Meanwhile south Australians continue to suffer from covid homelessness, dv ect not going anywhere, the rich getting richer and The poor poorer.

(above) Renovations creak along at the Hutt Street Centre. Current management seems to think it's okay to mostly shut the joint down for two years. Don't they realise people living outside depend on the services? Ian Cox would have arranged an alternate venue during construction. He should be returned on a sedan chair. (Adelaide Homeless Journal February 2021).

On the Street
 
Instead of investigating who facilitates the importation of Ice precursor chemicals from China and southeast Asia, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation reports that a fourth woman has gone to the police to report being touched on the thigh inappropriately some years ago by the Brittany Higgins alleged rapist.

A woman client of Fred’s Van Kilburn said the difference with that place is that clients will defend anyone being bullied. At other joints a thug can punch or kick or spit at a client and both management and clients will turn a blind eye. They might even take the side of the aggressor for fear of retribution.
 
*
 
The Royal Automobile Association of South Australia (RAA) has sent out proxy ballots for a special meeting to change the constitution allowing the Board to appoint non-elected members. They also want the power to add comments that allow them to badmouth nominee members on the ballot supplement they don’t think are qualified to run for office.
 
The hard-to-understand proxy voting forms sent in the mail to vote on these changes didn’t come with an envelope and were made from glossy paper making it easy for someone to change the voting intentions stated.
 
It appears that a small clique want to control the RAA by making it hard to dislodge incumbents via the voting process. And it appears someone wants to get hold of the valuable RAA insurance business.

Megaphone Man’s girlfriend said to him after he’d shaved, “Ah, you’ve been kicked in the face.” She recognised the symptoms and appearance as she’s been kicked in the face many times.

The South Australian Medical and Health Research Institute (SAMHRI) on North Terrace, Adelaide has been doing chemical hypnosis experiments on human test subjects.
 
*
 
A woman from the Beacon of Hope free lunch at Elizabeth was furious when she discovered the church had cancelled its free sit-down lunches to a takeaway service from the back door.
 
This was in response to fights caused by drug junkies. The woman said everyone was being punished for the action of the drug users.
 
Apparently, staff hadn’t realised threats and violence were going on for quite some time because no one complained. Why would you?
 
*
 
Anglicare is shoving numerous contracts in front of very old tenants being transferred between properties. The old people don’t have a clue what they are signing and aren’t given an opportunity to read the contracts and permissions let alone have a copy for a few days to read over.
 
It's not just Anglicare that does this. This attitude of pressured uninformed consent has permeated nearly every so-called benevolent and so-called non-profit organisation.

Drip-feed data collection
 
The Hutt Street Centre has a donation form entitled, “I want to help”. Does this sound normal or does it resemble an application form? Anyway, the form requires personal data from the “applicant” before he or she can read further. The Hutt Street Centre probably doesn’t have bad intentions, but the whole application form should be displayed so the prospective donors can see what they’re getting into before giving any personal data page by page. All the data collection requirements should be displayed as a single page.

Editor: I removed the link for this page as the Hutt Street Centre wrongly exploited the personal life of an elderly woman on it.

Empty welfare housing stays empty while  family is desperate for housing

A man and woman and their three children must find a place to live. They’re talking about a caravan park or living out of their car in a beach carpark. One child is 22-months old. The man has Diabetes 1 and a swollen leg from bone disintegration in his foot. Neither of them use drugs, smoke cigarettes or currently even drink alcohol.  They have to move out of where they’re living as they don’t have money for rent.
 
They’re from Scandinavia and were caught over here by the SARS 2 Covid virus travel bans. They are not drug-crazed degenerates. 
 
Meanwhile, Anglicare has transferred all but one of the white permanent residents from its 16-unit retirement complex at Elizabeth. It’s been due for redevelopment for years, but Anglicare continues to move Filipino, black African and Arab tenants in and out on a temporary basis. The units are mostly in good shape and need no renovations for tenants to move in. And a Spanish tenant at the Housing Trust units across the street said one of their units has been empty for one year while others have been empty for months. And there is that habitable unattached empty Housing Trust house that we are watching stay empty week after week.
 
Meanwhile, this white family are desperate. They put on brave smiles, but the man of the family drags along his swollen leg.
 
So, why are they in such desperate straits when Anglicare and the Housing Trust keep units and houses empty? It seems the employees of both places are in antagonistic trances as if hypnotised. And the leaders of these organisations, Peter Sandeman and Michael Buchan, seem like consciously evil entities putting on their snake-like smiles and mouthing their platitudes of benevolence yet behind the scenes enacting what seems pure malevolence.

Tanks much for

"Six Housing Trust apartments in the Town Central complex at Elizabeth were torched last week. The Trust had installed touchpads on the outer doors, but that didn't stop the arsonist."

"The hallway with three burnt-out apartments on each side. It might cost the Housing Trust half a million dollars to renovate them. Tenants' consensus view is that drug dealers and addicts on Chinese drugs were responsible for the fires."

"The Housing Trust installed Perspex doors and windows to stop drug addicts and dealers collecting debts from smashing through. But this made the building more susceptible to fire. One resident threw a mattress from a window during the fire."

"Other residents are fearful of further arson attacks after multiple fires were set in one week at the complex."

"Three fires were lit during a single week" ... "A mattress was burnt outside on one occasion, two rubbish bins on another and then the big fire that gutted six apartments. Slow-moving disabled residents in upper units of the other buildings are fearful of further arson attacks."

Was some jibber jabber on ABC this past weekend attributing ShelterSA to support of opening up UNUSED foreign student housing to homeless.

Question #1 is: What happens to some unit / house if given to destructive homeless or migratory tribes who will sometimes trash ruin blaze and raze a place ?

Questions #2 is: Can ShelterSA and Street To Home be trusted to deliver the goods in a good way such that a place that does not become a disgrace ?

The inferior tenancy support replacement
From the Old Nut

T.I.A.S. replaced by shonky CYC subsidiary

“Imagine you are an elderly senile demented homeless person in public housing or elsewhere in South Australia (SA) as i am, and you want some help to avoid being EVICTED by an immoral and corrupt SA Government (SAGOV) authority or judiciary or greedy criminal private landlord. Who can you turn to ?

“Well for the longest time there was only the Welfare Rights Centre (WRC) network and Housing Legal Clinic (HLC), with Tenants Information Advisory Service on the sideline.

“Last year the WRC and HLC were shut down by SAGOV, so the only alternative for assistance outside SAGOV was TIAS, an arm of a questionable large services organisation called SYC (known as Service to Youth Council at one time) and interstate between NSW and SA.

“So TIAS has gone through a change of name from TIAS (TIA in Spanish is Aunt and Aunties are very popular in Australia) to RentRightSA (RRSA) that has much more emphasis on the word RENT and the word RIGHT, words that are somewhat an anathema to those of us subject to enforced poverty and deprivation.

“ tell tale appearance of the RRSA A5 leaflet is what gets to me : it does NOTHING to increase my feeling of safety or health or vitality from an SYC organisation that has undergone a change in moniker, a monkey business transfer perhaps, to distance itself from TIAS and the innate connection of TIAS to Corrupt-O-Crook SYC.

Yes life be in it and you've certainly done that, fb is for suckers. It's cia.

Tha Arab spring started in Tunisia and Egypt after Julian Assange dumped a heap american diplomatic cables on the net. The citizens read about how corrupt their governments were, taking bribes to keep the status quo, keep them suckers. They organised peaceful protests used fb to communicate with protestors, to keep it civil and defeat the security services and paid antoganists masquerading as protestors. They did however have mobs make life untenable for American journalists there to report something different than what was happening.

Fb inmeadilety responded by changing settings, jumbling comments and restricting posts,. Slowlu have reined it. Fb was used to defeat attempts to inflame and quell the protests. Harder now. Cops turn up at your door if you use fb like that.

Until then fb wasn't a bad place, you could get real geo politics.

The Americans then paid militias in other countries to pretend to be part of the Arab spring, to hide it was an attempt to get rid of their corrupt little arses. This happened under Obama and Biden and shillary.

They created isis in Libya and when they destroyed that country they shipped all the jihadists and weapons to Syria through Turkey and Israel. You could follow this on fb, from news papers in the area documenting what was happening.

Australians live in a fake world. Perhaps not a more dumbed down western culture outside England.

When you go to no hopes cafe and see them rich old ladies knirting for Syria, they are knitting for isis. So yes, we are all Suckers including them. You have a church, Christian Church supplying clothes from volunteers, to a extreme Radical Islamic terrosits group. Most people would think im on meth, but this is all easily researched. They don't knit for the homeless in adealide. But they do for Islamic terrorists. There's no reason they should not know, they think I'm a piece of shit, so if I know, they should.

If you're connected with the right people they can share through messenger these days, but real science is being blocked on fb. It's nothing but a huge pys op these days. You're familiar with 6 degrees of separation? Look at fb board members and what they've done and doing. It's clear what they are.

For those not familiar with 6 degrees of separation.

You'll have 2 board members of jabba the hurt street, on the board of banks, two board members of banks on the board of coles and woollies, two board members of them on Pharmaceuticals and two board members of them on a security company and the Media or the law society, and politicians On those Boards as well and such ect. So they're all connected and watching each others back.

I followed this spiritual Page that at one time helped me. Last year fb started posting Political shit for them, without their consent,. Done it to so many pages. . One of the board members of fb, left in Nov last year to become in charge of cyber security for Biden.

New fighting at Beacon of Hope
 
They said it must have been the hot day that caused fighting amongst a small number of diners. Or that it could be blamed on a new crowd that turned up. But of course it was drug related. Isn’t nearly every conflict in the underclass free food scene based on Ice, heroin, Fantasy, dope, etc.?
 
Anyway, the Beacon of Hope is now takeaway only. “As always, a few ruin it for everyone else,” one diner lamented, correctly.
 
But why couldn’t the antagonists be kicked out? Well, they might return and smash the joint. They wouldn’t care, they don’t think of consequences. Junkies are like that. A stint in the slammer is a holiday.

“Banged badly brit is an alpha female. Nobody talks about them. She was 2 weeks into her dream job working for a minister. She got pissed, and went into a ministers office when she shouldn't of.

She got out of being sacked by saying he ***** her, he got sacked for the security breech they both did.

Security guards kept an eye on the whole time.

She saved her job by crying rape. Many alpha or narcissistic women Pull this trick but don't prosecute.

We’re only hearing her side. She has motive to lie. One night on the piss could of ended her dream job, her career one claim of rape saves that. She saved shame.

That's a possibility nobody talking about, for very good reason. The media in Australia is covering up crimes by women.

Take Tom from Tullarmarine, comes home from shopping, finds his son carved up, almost dead, rings triple 0, told to stay with the kid. Ambos and cops come, then they find his 2 daughters carved up and his wife has slit her wrists.

Cops beat him up, take him down the station, beat him up some more. When they get time of death of the mother, and track his phone and find he wasn't there, they release him. In the meantime the media go about her being a beautiful Mother, and how traumatic it was for the first responders and he's in custody being questioned. The f****** beat him up.

The Media won't print this.

But back to banged badly brit.

Perhaps she did say no while he was…Women do say no half way through…There seems some pretty graphic accounts from security who logged all their interactions with her, walked in on her passed out. No nickers would be because he wiped her clean with them and disposed of the evidence.

Conversely though, She was so drunk, somethings she don't remembers but some things she does, the juicy bits.

This has achieved a few things. The Dissent over the vaccine hijacked. The media love pulling this trick about male culture. Keeps everyone controlled away from critical issues. Same sex marriage used to be the go to story to stir people up and hide other things.

You notice everyone's attacking Morrison and male culture. The minister covered this up, a female. Nobody calling for her head. That's the first thing should happen. But all the usual feminests attacking males. Men.

The minister covered up a crime. There is cctv in that office.

Something fishy and its not the missing knickers.

Banged badly brit was distressed and they nearly called an ambulance. Both were drunk, drunk sex gets messy. But so does drunk women waking up and saying no.

Was the state of distress a 22 year old women thinking oh no what I've done, I've been caught ******* in a ministers office, my dream job ruined I'll be sacked for the security breech. The media might find out, my family, my friends. I'll be shamed.

… I better think of away out of this.

I've seen a narc female do this very thing. Dressed and posed like banged badly brit...

We will never know what happened until they talk about the cctv in the office.

But we know it's being hijacked for an agenda.

Homelessness rises in the Adelaide CBD
 
The Actively Homeless number has risen from 206 to 222 in the Adelaide CBD and surrounding parklands according to the Adelaide Zero Project Dashboard.
 
This includes an increase from 121 to 148 of rough sleepers; a decrease from 58 to 52 of those temporarily sheltered like in backpacker joints; and a decrease from 27 to 23 of those homeless in unknown circumstances.
 
This adds up to 223 though the Adelaide Homeless Project added them up to reach 222.
 
The Adelaide Zero Project published the figures on either late Friday or early Saturday when most journalists have knocked off for the week. It is a typical ploy politicians use when having to announce bad news.

What can we believe about the virus?
 
We can easily become suspicious of governments and big tech platforms that remove dissenting views on the Corona virus from being published. But can we believe the other side that claims the virus is a plandemic and the vaccines designed to kill us as they are gene replacement therapy and not the traditional vaccine as we know it.
 
Alt-tech websites have plenty of doctors and academics saying the Covid vaccines are depopulation injections that will start killing six-months after injections. But how much of these following reports are disinformation that help no one?

Has the Adelaide Zero Project died
​a natural death?

Are Peter Sandeman and Louise Miller-Frost still the co-Chairs of the Adelaide Zero Project? It’s a rather large organisation, isn’t it, with over forty “partners”. Does it have an office? Does it have meetings with annual reports? Or was it a bunch of bureaucrats fiddling a funding game that require a front organisation?
 
Whatever, their web page seems to have died. The January homeless statistics haven’t been published. Has Neami National “non-profit” psychiatric organisation stop compiling them. We can be sure the Hutt Street Centre and HYPA continue to collect data. That’s a larger part of their service than actually helping the homeless and underclass. Or is it?

Cyanide and despair
 
From the Anonymous Contact Page

"Editor: Yes, John Connaughton registered as a religious preacher and this gave him access to the Ok Tedi river."

That would be the Fly River with the Ok Tedi mine set up by BHP and other mining PIGS at the source of the Fly River, peaked in the Highlands of Papua, that receives 7 metres of rain per year.

The mining PIGS dug out and fortified huge mining tailing dams that would NEVER hold up in 7 metres of rain per year.

The dams broke and all that cyanide leach solution from the dam tailings sludge came flooding down the Fly River in torrents of poisonous devastation that would mean the end of life, the end of homes, for many ZILLIONS of creatures living along the Fly River.

Also, the dummkopfs of BHP and others had a helicopter carry a load of cyanide above the Fly River and drop this directly into the Fly River.

And as the deadly homeless creation mess continued, any People of Papua who objected and complained about what had happened to their lives and tribal areas were deemed CRIMINALS by the puppet Papua government for trying to obtain compensation for their ruined livelihoods, permanent acid leaching in the Fly River which had been transformed into a raging wide deadly sludge flood, profusely bleeding into the seas above Australia.

Little is heard from the media about this and other major resource company catastrophes.

No sympathy for Brittany Higgins

The (real) and or more credible story behind Liberal staffer Brittany Higgins "Rape Allegations" story............

Unless your living underground and or have recently emerged from a comatose state, you are unlikely not to not heard about Brittany Higgins, rape allegations against a LNP coalition colleague.

So as far as we know, Brittany and (unknown other party) "banged" each other sometime in 2019 (clearly before social distancing became the norm, about a year later).
 
Brittany at that time was a 22 year old, slightly dumpy and rather plain, admin assistant working in the office of Defence Minister, Lynda Reynolds.
 
It is alleged that within that office, Brittany and (other unknown party) retreated to it, after a late night ministerial event for a round of horizontal "folk dancing." Three quarters of the way through, said "horizontal folk dancing exhibition, a protective security guard, entered the said office to do a final security check, before turning on the overnight alarms and locking up the building, and caught "Britts" and (other said party) enthusiastically demonstrating said horizontal folk dancing moves.....it was at this point that Britts was alleged to have jumped up and declared that she this was not consensual sex, but she was being forced to subjugate herself.
 
Her alleged "dancing" party left soon afterwards and Britts still only partially dressed (allegedly she couldn't find her underpants, so left without them on?) staggered outside to find a taxi to take her home, to her parents place where she lives. Since that time, Britts has declared herself to be devoutly religious, she allegedly attends Hillsong Church along with our beloved PM, was celebate before (unknown) person banged her and even though she allegedly doesn't remember very much about that night, alleges that what intimate acts did take place, were "not natural." (Not sure what to make of that, so go figure?) I guess if Britts may possibly be suggesting that she was ****-******, then good for her, she technically remains…??? Seriously Britts, unless you spent your entire childhood and adolescence locked up in some kind of retro 19th century convent, lots of alcohol, skimpy cocktail dress, randy male boyfriend and a closed up office, late at night........what do you think gunna happen? Yes that's right BRITTS! A real fun game of TWISTER WHERE THE FIRST PRIZE IS WHO CAN GET A HOLE IN ONE.....

Moral of the story Britts, you were 22 at the time, and chocka fulla alcohol and your BBF at the time, probably was as well.......so unless he held you down in a choke hold and or at gun or knifepoint, get over it......Stop F****** WHINING.....as for unnatural acts, you were too drunk to remember the actual event, so accept it as a learning experience and move on! Keep tabs on your alcohol intake and don't accept future invites to offices late at night.....and be up front to your parents and the parishioners at Hillsong church........You got mega drunk and ****** a work colleague. THIS IS NOT RAPE!!!

Experiments on humans and why Anglicare helps foreign students

from Just Caught ice via the anonymous contact page
 
There's been some stories in the press recently about an inquiry into CourtsSA staff bullying each other. It's an interesting subject. It's going to make life easier for public servants. Probably save and change lives.

But the person who brought this all about, someone you all think nothing of. You will never hear about. Some of you reading might of met them . Some of you workers in the homeless industry who stalk this page like the dogs you are, probably have abused this person. In fact you gang stalked them on behalf of the very peoples abuse who lead to the inquiry. Which is why you are dogs. There's good people in the public sector(none in the homeless) who get bullied because they want to do what's right. And the dogs attacking them by proxy. Essential workers attacking essential workers and their families

Anyway, bullying was rife in CourtsSA. Forensic psychiatry studies show there's a high rate of paedophilia in judges, lawyers, magistrates. There's also a whole class of hookers just for them. Mostly foreign students these days earning a buck to afford study here. Which is why Anglicare prioritised helping foreign students over Australians when the Covid paranoia first hit a year ago. Judges lawyers and magistrates need their sex fix. It's more important to Anglicare than anything else. You look after your own. Wood royal Commission documents this clearly.

Anyway, when you walk into a soup Kitchen, you. Might come across someone you think nothing of, but makes real Change. They don't sit and whinge, or gossip, they get s*** done. It is of no surprise they were gang stalked by the homeless industry. They gave a lot to hide. Part of the issue that lead to the inquiry involves someone very high up in the homeless industry and their wife a former CEO of a hospital that conducted illegal experiments on people experiencing family Violence. Family Violence that leads many into homelessness.

They're about to get s*** done in the homeless scene. You'll hear dribs and drabs about it in the media over the [next] few years. The swamp is being drained, just how far the powers that be pull the chain on the plug holding the swamp up, one doesn't know.

Workers spoken of kindly on this page, in on it. Part of the ****** that feeds the swamp. One wonders why this page speaks kindly of some . A little hypocritical perhaps? Personally compromised? It doesn't matter who you help when you've deliberately targeted people. To Protect criminals, used your position to inflict pain on them, turned a blind eye to the abuse their receiving and even slander them to Other workers and clients. I thought this page new that? When you protect a monster, that's what you are.

THE PRO's and CON's of BIN DIVING
The Night Talker

Queensland woman may have been killed after either falling into and or falling asleep in industrial rubbish bin......

Moral of the story, although I certainly support Bin Diving as a way to manage given our current shitty economic situation (post Covid-19) it most certainly has its risk. Don't bin dive if you are unwell, intoxicated and or under the influence of drugs. (Like it seems our unfortunate above mentioned friend, more than likely was) Also be mindful, that some of these industrial bins are so large, that if you jump into them (without putting something else in first that will help you climb out) chances are, you going to be stuck inside the bin) Finally the trucks that come and empty these bins are huge, they are usually emptied late at night and the drivers rarely leave their cabins. So unless you can make a sound similar to a B-57 Bomber taxing the runway, nobody is going to hear you screaming for help, if your stuck inside one of these bins.

Everything comes with risk. If you are not super-fit and are on your own, DON"T climb into the bin. Try using one of those mechanical grab sticks (you can buy them cheaply from places like Cheap as Chips) and or putting some crates alongside the bin and then skimming stuff off the top. Remember the deeper the item, the more likely it is to have gone off and or be contaminated. Remember your bin diving NOT BIN DYING.........

…the choir every Wednesday afternoon at the minor works building… was for women surviving homelessness, DV, etc, etc.

Why do all the men in positions of power make the big decisions on axing something that was so holistic and therapeutic to the women of Adelaide.....

The previous CEO Ian Cox I recall at a major fundraiser 3 years ago was happy to keep funding it - seems like this current CEO has no empathy or compassion!!!

(above) Another instance of Cos We Care unpaid workers scrounging for donations to give to the homeless and underclass crowd on the weekends. This is done while the salaried employees from government-funded outfits like the Hutt Street Centre have gone home for the weekend. (Adelaide Homeless Journal February 2021).

(above) The Tree Climb business operating in the South Parklands has further commercialised the greenbelt surrounding the Adelaide CBD. It has replaced a major homeless camping area with Muzak, spy cameras and an interesting tourist operation. Why doesn't anyone from the Hutt Street Centre or Baptist WestCare speak out when this happens? (Adelaide Homeless Journal February 2021).

Will the government review encompass all the Aspire Program's costs?

The South Australian government is reviewing the Hutt Street Centre’s Aspire Program. It’s no surprise, it was part of the funding deal when the government and private investors pledged $9 million to begin it in 2017.
 
The Hutt Street Centre says it isn’t worried about the review because the program saved the government $5.69 million in reduced hospital admissions and court appearances. They even commissioned a Deloitte analysis to show that in the three years to June they’d saved the government 1288 hospital bed days, 212 convictions and 453 emergency accommodation periods. Amazing how they could figure this out. And would others in the homeless scene be happy that they’d prevented 212 convictions. The “vulnerable”, as the welfare bureaucrats like to call those living outside, are often happy when a particular thug is removed from the scene.
 
Golden Steph Richards wrote in indaily.com.au that, “It estimated that the program could save the Government up to $20 million if the program keeps running beyond seven years.” The good news just pours in. Why not keep it running for even longer and save $40 million?
 
But money for the Aspire Program is running low so the Hutt Street Centre will stop taking new clients after June this year. It will continue its support program for existing clients until 2024. This means that the final analysis to determine what savings have been made can’t be finished until then. Or whether homeless numbers have actually decreased over the period.
 
Along with the $9 million budgeted for the program there might be attached hidden costs. Did the cost of putting drug dealers into Housing Trust and other community housing come into the Deloitte calculations? Especially the cost of increased repairs and security features such as Perspex windows and doors, keypad entry consoles and surveillance cameras.
 
For example, The Rabbit was moved from a laneway back of Hindley Street to the Housing Trust Avondale Apartments at Elizabeth. The apartment had been renovated after Nathan Clarke had been stabbed to death there a few months previously. Within four days of The Rabbit moving in, he allowed an Ice addict to stay whereupon she scribbled on nearly every wall during a crystal amphetamine episode. Was the expected cost of repainting the walls and doors calculated in the Deloitte audit report?
 
And do these extra safety costs remove money from house maintenance that results in hundreds of other Housing Trust houses sitting empty for long periods because there isn’t money to repair them between tenants?
 
And how about those less tangible costs of disruption when an Ice junkie is placed into a quiet Housing Trust complex then rages most nights on Ice while trading drugs for stolen property and running prostitutes at the local pub? Or filling the complex with fumes from an Ice lab in her bathroom.
 
Another cost might be the increased documentation of Hutt Street Centre clients. Clients to the Aspire Program have to submit to background checks similar though not as harsh as the Vice-President of the United States. Prospective Aspire clients are made to surrender privacy firewalls allowing social workers to make enquiries wherever they want and without informing the client they’ve done this. The vetting process may also include smelling the client and asking about his or her sexual experiences. This erosion of respect has filtered into the services at the Hutt Street Centre in general and has thus chased away a range of homeless people who otherwise might have used the joint. Has this cost been included in the Deloitte report?
 
Then we come to the homeless rate in the Adelaide CBD. The Aspire Program hasn’t reduced the rate since it began in 2017. And do Adelaide CBD residents feel safer with the Aspire Program operating?
 
But to be fair, there might be some lost souls who have found a degree of security via the Aspire Program. Once in the depths of homelessness, it is difficult to escape the exhaustion, injury and persecution, which usually leads to an early death.
 
So, we now await the results of the government review providing it is published unredacted.

Watching how long a good Housing Trust house stays empty.
Part 1

Adelaide Homeless Journal is watching a recently vacated Housing Trust two-bedroom unattached house. It is 15-years-old. It has had one elderly woman tenant who moved into a nursing home.
 
The house sits on its own small block and has an attached carport and small backyard. The roof and structure are fine. There aren’t any broken windows or doors, but the carpets are filthy and the walls will be repainted. The backyard contains a few sheds. It’s been legally empty for four weeks.
 
If this was China, the trades people might have swarmed the joint and renewed it in two weeks during which prospective tenants would have signed the lease papers and moved in.
 
Instead, everyone involved is on-the-take one way or the other. Not by outright bribes, but financial kow-towing to the myriad of government fiefdoms that have a say in the cleaning and minor renovations.
 
To date, a few government bureaucrats have been through the joint, but nothing else. Adelaide Homeless Journal expects it to remain empty for six-months, perhaps even a year or more during which it will be at risk of vandalism. This is common with Housing Trust properties across Adelaide.

The Minister in charge of the Housing Trust, Michelle Lensink, is impotent to make any changes in the speed of placing new tenants into empty government-owned houses. She hasn’t any political courage. Housing Trust C.E.O. Michael Buchan is a two-faced deadbeat supported by a Board of Management of deadbeats including Con “Tragic” Tragakis, Shona Reid, Andrew Beer, Meredith Perry, Gary Bonato , Christine Bierbaum and Gary Storkey. 

The opposition shadow minister, Natalie “Call me Nat” Fleur Cook is trapped by Labor party policy that forbids her from voicing a word of criticism against the welfare housing racket.

Secret agents in the suburbs: a real life family spy story
on Conversations
with Sarah Kanowski

Sue Ellen Kusher’s father was an ASIO agent, and she and her siblings were taught to memorise number plates, spot unusual behaviour, and keep the family business secret at all costs

PODCAST:
https://abcmedia.akamaized.net/radio/local_brisbane/audio/202102/aaj-2021-02-12.mp3

P.S. This mentions avid active attendance at the Brisband UFO Club. Reminds one of Adelaide UFO Club.
 
Editor: Remember that fellow with cancer who sought an automatic shotgun operator to go with him in his canoe up that river in Papua New Guinea. He’d fly to the top of the river then float down while buying gold from the locals. Then he’d fly to Thailand to sell it and return to Adelaide for the next UFO meeting.

​The government has stopped most public meetings with Health and Safety regulations and insurance requirements. This was well before the Covid Plandemic.

Rags to riches part II - the tampon terror continues
From Period Poverty

Yesterday the gov announced free tampons to school girls. Evidently girls are missing school because they can't afford tampons. Evidently this will increase attendances. Tax payers will pay this and all the usual suspects slapping each other on the back congratulating themselves for thier humanatarian policy's.

Evidently dandemic Andrews first introduced to this in Victoria. Sponsored by plumbers, as business has gone through the roof charging schools a fortune unblocking female Toilets.

Jim's plumbing make a shit load of cash, his bank account swollen. He's on a bloody good thing.

Meanwhile in the real Pre covid world, families would sleep in thier car down semaphore kids would turn up to school after eating McDonald's for breaky, from the drive through on the way to school, before mum went to work. Still happenin, just port adelaide Council decided to remove everyone, so now they're scattered around the place, out of sight and unable to network with others and learn safety skills. There's was a fair few turned up after dark, gone just after first lite. Dv services even used them as properganda to justify all males are the enemy and they fighting the good fight, saving children.

Evidently tampons are more important. Again, women got by for thousands of years just fine without them, but people don't get by living in cars, living without a house. Never have. So many fallen over the centuries. No one fallen foul of no tampon.

Kids go to school hungry, eating shit food, without proper shoes, developing life long foot conditions. I could go on.

Oh but we have services to help them they say. Go to these joints and look what food they give away and sell. That's not nutrition , it's poison. Anyone ever seen a decent pair of shoes in an op shop? No, because the staff grab them first

Oh but those same f****** services give away tampons but. Go f****** figure.

So what are they doing with this tampon terrorism?

Properganda.

Don Dunstan Foundation letter
​a little thin on the ground

Jane Lomax-Smith was left to carry the can for the Don Dunstan Foundation in their February newsletter, but there wasn’t much to say.
 
There is the Hugh Stretton Oration “On Life’s Lottery” this Thursday 18 February from 5:30 to 7:00pm. Free at Elder Hall in the University of Adelaide North Terrace Campus.
 
I remember seeing Hugh at Parliament House just before he died. He seemed a little out of it.

 On the Street
 
Port Adelaide’s hit man was injured in a fight recently. It’s part of the job description. “I can’t win,” he said, never appearing healthier or happier.
 
*
 
The Tablet Lady was at Port Church free meal on Wednesday looking more a wreck than ever. Forty-two going on 67 and still beautiful and tragic.
 
*
 
Fire Truck Wayne still sells Big Issue in Rundle Mall. Doctors have him on some ferocious psychiatric drugs that have caused huge weight gain. That was punishment for phoning the fire department and sending their trucks to other people’s houses. Wayne is an Adelaide celebrity. He still grieves over his mother who died two or three years ago.
 
*
 
Julie Mann got an adjournment until early March in the Port Adelaide Magistrate’s court. She has faced multiple vandalism charges after Megaphone Man’s car was repeatedly vandalised at Semaphore Park.
 
*
 
Salvo Stores used unpaid workers to sort donated goods and put them on the racks and shelves then gets one worker to spend one day a week in each store culling the stock. All the Christmas decorations and stuffed children’s toys met their fate in the rubbish skips.
 
*
 
Okay, who kicked in the door of Port Adelaide Salvo store? If that wasn’t enough they had a leaking roof that flooded the main floor.
 
*
 
People donate money to the Hutt Street Centre, which is rolling in wealth yet Cos We Care and Our Street Family Matters and even the Christadelphian’s Armageddon BBQ offer more bang for buck in helping the CBD underclass.

Tom’s mother from Fred’s Van had a stroke. She’s only fifty. She gets around on a walking frame, but her mind and humour are still functioning. Pretty terrible, especially as she lives a very active life. And she doesn’t use drugs, smoke or anything like that.

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation announced that the highest number of Covid-infected returnees to Australia were from the United Kingdom. This is a result of the latest outbreak there.
 
When the largest numbers were from India and Africa, the ABC avoided naming these areas referring to the infected people as only “Australians”.
 
Does the act of writing this comment seem racist to you? It does to me. That’s how well they’ve brainwashed us.
 
Meanwhile, the ABC is running advertisements for themselves saying they’re for all Australians. What an absurd lie.
 
*
 
UnitingSA at Port Adelaide tries not to call their free Wednesday meal “Chat and Chew”. It sounds too silly. And it hasn’t restarted this year because a key employee is off work looking after her dying mother.
 
*
 
Anglicare sends its bureaucrats to inspect tenants’ flats and units for cleanliness yet the windows at its Elizabeth office in the shopping centre are dusty with bird droppings around the windows and sills.
 
*
 
The free fruit and vegetables at Lifepoint Church weren’t as good as previously due to the man and woman who usually do it being absent for family reasons. Hopefully, temporarily, but then it isn’t right for us to burn people out.

An employee is having trouble with the manager at Kidman Park Salvo Store on Grange Road. The employee says he is very hard to work under.

The Salvo Stores Warehouse is sending whole pallets of books to individual stores. The rule is to throw anything old and dusty into the rubbish. Two thirds of each pallet get thrown into the rubbish. Some boxes aren’t even sorted. What valuable books must be lost.

The Ice Addict
 
She sat on a swing in the children’s playground. She didn’t move a muscle. Her eyes behind dark glasses followed my every move. This was a predator.   
 
I sat under a tree until the man with heart and lung trouble arrived. We waited for the food van. The Ice Addict felt safer two men than one and crossed the expanse of grass towards us.  
 
The left side of her face was a mass of bleeding wounds. She was a scratcher. Chemical drugs do that to some users. They scratch and scratch and scratch oblivious to the blood. The rest of her face was covered in ugly scars from previous fingernail sessions.
 
She wanted to use a phone. She left her phone at a house in Gepps Cross. She wanted to phone them to arrange a time to pick it up. Oh, sure. Who would buy that story? She was arranging a pick-up.
 
She flipped in a typical addiction rave. She felt a strong need to help others and did so wherever she could. She wanted to help set up chairs when the van arrived.
 
She’d be a rare drug addict to think of anyone else except herself and her cravings. She’d more likely drag anyone and anything down into her cesspool if it helped get another line or bag.
 
After performing her benevolence act she switched to that tried and tested routine of claiming to have suffered an injury. She got her hand caught in the spin tub of an old twin-tub washing machine. It happened when she was trying to avoid falling onto a child or something. Usual story.
 
She borrowed a church volunteer’s phone when the van arrived. She poked at the screen while she poked a tiny smoke and the tips of a finger and thumb back and forth into her mouth then back onto the screen.
 
She might give up Ice somewhere in her future, but will never recover her health or mental strength.  She could become a saintly human being, but the damage from the drugs is permanent.

Free coffee on Saturday
​at Parkside Baptist Church

“One thing you could add to the list of free food sources on the Adelaide Homeless Journal is the Parkside Baptist Church. On Saturday mornings from 9:30 am to 12:30 am they turn the place into an op shop in which they have free coffee, tea, and snacks available, and have second-hand clothing for sale. A free snack available will usually be something like a biscuit, a slice of cake, or an item of fruit.”

Housing Trust nightmare at Gilberton
 
From the anonymous contact page

A DRUG ADDICT HELL IS NOT A HOME

I have lived at Elliott Lodge GILBERTON SA nearly 20 years with NO OFFENCE.

I have NO POLICE RECORD OF OFFENCE.

Also I have no legal enemies outside this once beautiful public housing area.

My bills have been paid, even when exorbitant such as with sky-high water charges for our own extremely meager water usage.

I do my best to avoid the demented depraved deviate drug-affected human offenders so obvious in the area now that it has been transformed into a prison hotel and non-staffed asylum facility.

ISSUE AT HAND:

I resent and avoid being attacked by various miscreant tenants, their associates and any HSA staff who show favour and friendship to these potential predators and killers.

(If an SAGOV and/or HSA staff member is in association with a known criminal or suspected criminal, a known psychopath or suspected psychopath, then I will AVOID the staff when they are alongside the criminal, perhaps when staff are trying get our attention or trying to get us to interact in some way.)

Also, I am a senior veteran elder abuse victim who WILL let various government and non-government agencies and individuals know when things are going wrong here, my chosen and hopeful place of safe residence.

I have to do this, especially for health reasons, such as my susceptibility to stroke and high-anxiety mental disorder.

Anyway, today xxxxxxxxxxxx, at about xxxx hours, I arrived back at my unit after going to the city for a few hours.

Lo and behold, who should be near my doorway but a known drug addict pest from Unit $ who obviously has many problems known to others, including the police.

The addict criminal was INSIDE the hallway, and going through the ground-level compartments that are just outside my door and next to the electricity panel.

WHAT BUSINESS DOES THIS DRUG ADDICT CRIMINAL PREDATOR HAVE IN GOING CONSTANTLY IN AND OUT OF OUR UNIT AREA AND FIDDLING WITH THINGS WHEN THEIR UNIT IS IN A COMPLETELY SEPARATE PORTION OF THE COMPLEX ?

Is it right that drug addicts dealers have full access to the combination codes on our group unit blocks and can hover around our doorways for no apparently worthwhile purpose ?

Could SAGOV HSA SAHA PLEASE find out why this type criminal is allowed to constantly molest and sometimes abuse us ESPECIALLY WHEN WE DO NOT KNOW THE ADDICT DEALERS AND DO NOT WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ADDICT DEALERS ?

Thanks for giving any attention to this.

(above) Ethnos community centre at Balaklava has closed down. They offered legal and social advice from a different perspective: that the system oppresses us rather than we being miscreants. Thanks to reader contribution of this image. (Adelaide Homeless Journal February 2021).

Who will cut the white ribbon?
 
Executive director Brad Chilcott of White Ribbon has “overhauled the fundraising model”. This means hiring a professional charity fundraising business to collect money for White Ribbon, itself not being able to raise any volunteers.
 
This fundraising model means that 75% of money raised goes to the charity collecting business to pay wages for those collectors who operate out of shopping centres. These are the people who punch their fists in the palms of their hands as elderly shoppers pass by. They don’t want ten-dollar donations, they want elderly senile people to sign on the dotted line for a monthly donation of $30 automatically deducted from their bank accounts, only to be discovered by Executors after their deaths.
 
Two aggressive male collectors at the Craigmore shopping centre recently wore pink and black Lycra body suits over dehaired bodies.
 
A key to White Ribbon’s media campaign is getting men to inform on other men they suspect of domestic violence. The aim is to effect a cultural change in how men behave. But is it leading to further alienation and single person households?
 
Brad Chilcott was involved with Anglicare’s Peter Sandeman in 2016 of fiddling $757,500 from a secret account in the Premier’s Department to spend on political advertising two-months before a federal election.
 
How the pair avoided prison time is something just short of a miracle? Having the right political contacts probably answers the question. That’s the sad part of White Ribbon. It has added a just cause to a political partisan platform where people who agree with it are against it.
 
But whether one agrees or disagrees with the White Ribbon campaign, it might be agreed that Chilcott is sincere in his mission. Nevertheless, don’t sign on the dotted line.

“He was a regular a Port Church and City Salvos. Nice guy, he who been through some shit. He was support structure for many females, such was his heart, softly spoken, never take advantage of them like some did with him. He decided to Leave for a warmer Climate, a sea change. Escape the pedofile bowl that is adelaide.

“He had lived in his caravan, so he drove it away, glad to see the back of the evil town.

“He hasn't been in his new town long when his caravan was robbed . He made the mistake of gravitating to a poor area. They saw him coming. Now he was alone in a new city, a soft touch. He tried networking but instead got played. They robbed his caravan and then set it on fire. He lost everything, including his I.D.

“The services won't help him because he has no I.D. To get I.D. he needs a copy of his birth certificate. To get his birth certificate he needs I.D. He's had three attempts with birth deaths and marriages over a number of months, while living outside, with no income.

“He sits outside servos in burning heat begging for donations. He's been to every service, they won't help him, or give him an idea. One man spoke to him for less than a minute and immediately solved his problem..

“Do you have a criminal record?

“He didn't want to answer but said yes, for minor things.

“Well, go the police station, tell them your problem, ask to be identified through your finger prints.

“It may take some time, but they do this all the time, if they won't, go see the local Member, explain your problem. The police will take your prints and a statement, send your prints to that pedo town and verify who you are. Centerlink will then accept it, give you a payment and I.D. you can then go get a proof of age card and reapply for your birth certificate.

“Argg yer get someone to do some arse kicking for me was his reply.

“He hurried off saying thank you about 5 times to go sit in the sun and beg. Confused at why hasn't he thought of it and why hasn't anyone else. The answer was so simple, nobody bothered to tell him, people paid to tell him wouldn't. One has to ask what the f*** are they doing?

“That was pretty well the whole conversation with his hero. The man that changed his life, didn't ask for nothing, didn't expect nothing.

“He approaches him 2 days later and said done. Cops made me wait around for a few hours, but it's been emailed to Adelaide. Will take a week or so, told him to come back next week.

“He’ll get a unit in a poor suburb and then the junkies will come again in another way and the police won't be so helpful. Because he has a social Security number and Id again, the services will give him dribs and drabs to use as a statistic, so they get their funds to pay their wages and prop up their religion. To pay for lawyers next Royal commission into pedofiles.”

Period Poverty

Re Australia day award.

“They never give them to real People. If there was gonna be some young female from Adelaide who was worthy of such an award for their volunteer work in the poverty seen, it would be the Wanderer.

“The Wanderer was on the dole, living off nothing after rent. Living in a ghetto where rapes don't make the media, ice addicts, sex offenders murderers around every corner.
 
“The Wanderer would do around 30 hours a week some weeks, for a community based free food service. The Wanderer critical part of this service that had hundreds of customers a week. The Wanderer would collect donated food from local bakeries shopping centers, would pick up other volunteers, equipment and work a full ten hour a day a week, from sorting packing serving cleaning running errands and a support structure for others. And another 2 hours another day.
 
“The Wanderer had psychological challenges as result of their experiences with Anglicare as a Foster child. Anglicare seem to resent their work as well, funny that. Anglicare had an opportunity very easily make the Wanderers life easier, to conduct her critical work easier and with less stress. They chose not to. When confronted by others for their neglect in this instance, abuse and aggression and ego came flowing faster than a Nepali girl With no tampon. However the worker did let it slip, their refusal was a result of others wishes.

“The Wanderer took on a load much greater than anyone. Not even Centerlink would help her or care. Yet they sent starving people her way. She turned out to be a better support structure than the social workers at Centerlink sending people that way.

“A lot of people got on the wrong side of the Wanderer but not one of them did 10 percent of what she did for people in need.

“Instead some well-to-do millionaire who came in at the end of poor people's hard work, was given a minor award and lots of pats on the back. When all these arse lickers pass the real heroes on the street, they turn their nose up. Not that the hot millionaire didn't deserve recognition, just at least ten others from the same place, were way in front.

“The Wanderer deserved young person of the year 100 times more than the tampon terrorist.

“Some poor Indian fisherman on the River Ganges is sitting trying to catch a feed and an Adelaide tampon is floating past.. And the polluter a hero. Some lion has just caught a hyena in Kenya, and while eating its guts, chewin on an Adelaide tampon…

“Fort ewe lot would of had a yak about the young adelaide woman given a major Australia day award for her contribution to homeless? Finally, homelessness brought into the spotlight with a major award.

“She got Australian young person of the year 4 her work in the homeless and poverty scene. And ewe guys are silent.

“Why? I notice ewe talk about precursors to meth coming in from China. Well technically you're right, but they're made by American companies, on the American stock market and sold legally. For meth. You all got shoes and clothes made by Western countries in China, where we use their socio economic position for cheap labour. And the lack of occupational health and safety regulations. Its hard when you got over 1 billion workers to regulate shit. Wall Street take advantage of this. The workers get sick from making those chemicals.

“But anyway, back to the hero in adelaide.

“She provides tampons to women in 3rd world countries. She raises the money in adelaide mostly, gets government grants. She's promoted as helping the homeless. For thousands of years women got by just fine without tampons. But she's a hero sending them overseas. She's also believes in global warming, yet sending those tampons overseas has a carbon footprint. And they're ending in landfill, drains, gutters , rivers. A bloody disgrace. She's a hero for it.

“Evidently she provided tampons to homeless Adelaide women. Forgetting many have irregular periods due to stress of homelessness and drug use and forgetting that women get more help with Coles cards and shit, because they need tampons. This girl still a hero. Forgetting that most places you go to get food Coles can't sell, have a shelf full of tampons for bloody free.

“Its is bloody disgusting.

“She think she's helping. Her whole bloody school involved.

“Bloody hell, how demented.

“Meanwhile in the real world…

“Old people Go to soup Kitchens and get beat up. That's less important than providing tampons to some chick in in India or Africa.”

Editor: That song could have been about Glandore Boys Home where the child molesters slept with the little boys. Sorry, I removed that lettering you changed. I didn’t want to tarnish that person’s reputation that way without proof. Brilliant tiny, but powerful change. Proof of negligence, proof of cover-up by that person? Any examples? Hmm. Yes. Those who get to the top do so by conforming to those with power behind the scenes.

A Chinese gambling addict woman got an older Australian man to make his will in favour of her. He left her everything. There is only one copy of the will. It’s hidden at her house.

As his health fails, he wondered if he’d written in his will to allocate money for his burial. He asked her to let him see his will. She refused saying, “It’s not important.”

(above) Donation to Cos We Care in the city. Some readers may find it incredible about money for water. The Hutt Street Centre had a water tap at the front, but removed it about ten-years ago. Now, during hot weather, they tell the media they're supplying water to homeless people in bottles, but don't mention they pulled out their street tap. (Adelaide Homeless Journal January 2021).

The psychotic Ice addict who punched the disabled 70-year-old in the head at the Beacon of Hope church last month also punched Taj in the stomach a few times at Elizabeth Fred’s Van last Sunday. Taj has brain damage from a car smash some years before. There are no repercussions against violent clients as free food joint managers turn a blind eye to this sort of stuff and only a fool would call the police.
 
The Ice addict is a father of a young police officer who refers to his dad in the most uncomplimentary terms. The addict has sadly suffered too much brain damage from drugs so there won’t ever be return to normal even if he goes off the stuff.

Why don’t Australian law enforcement, “non-profits” executives and politicians  breathe a few words against Chinese chemical exporters sending the precursor chemicals for crystal methamphetamine to Australia with the blessing of the CCP government. The answer is that our people are “on the take”. This doesn’t mean they accept outright bribes, but their security of tenure and promotional prospects depend on them keeping quiet about precursors coming in from China.
 
Why doesn’t Police Commissioner Grant Stevens put the hard word on China drug dealers? He wants every Australian citizen driving a car to have to submit to an inbuilt breathalyser test each time the car is used regardless of whether they drink alcohol or not. But he has a soft spot for small-time Adelaide Ice dealers and won’t criticise the big Chinese exporters.

Will the Adelaide Zero Project homeless dashboard continue? It was funded by the Broadley Trust who must now be thinking they’ve done their money on a dud.
 
It was envisioned to be updated every day, but the reality was just once a month with a 12-day delay while they processed the tiny amount of raw data.
 
But is it useful? Some major homeless service providers refuse to supply data on their clients to the Hutt Street Centre collectors and later, Neami National, a shady psychiatric organisation that compiles the data and of which their funding depends on the maintenance of homelessness.

Outdoor diners report that Victory Church didn’t turn up at Pittman Park in Salisbury to provide their Friday lunch free BBQ. This isn’t good enough. If they’re going to provide an important service then they should strive toward regularity and dependability. Why attract people then leave them in the lurch? The ambulance driver’s team operated the Victory Church BBQ at the railway station for five or so years while not turning up maybe three or four times. Then the church replaced him with a new less dedicated team.

Why are Meals-on-Wheels advertising on radio for customers? Aren’t they inundated with customers already? Maybe business is bad and their funding is threatened for lack of clients. Old folk have complained the food is cold, all shaken up by being in a car and tasteless, like hospital food.
 
Meals-on-Wheels also uses conscript labour from the Work-for-the-Dole and other programs. I wouldn’t trust the food. Maybe some disgruntled unpaid worker spits in it like what happens in jail.

The Anglicare Foster Carer confidentiality waiver
disclosure form
The Night Talker

“Not a lawyer here, but If I did show this form to a lawyer that was experienced in matters relating to foster caring/child protection etc, I reckon they could punch holes through this particular form and all its clauses.
 
“The reason I am saying this (and be mindful I am NOT a lawyer) but I do know to a reasonable extent, how disclosure laws work (in this state at least) any disclosure by a child and or adult that involves actual and or implied information/evidence in relation to the abuse, neglect and or exploitation of a CYP (Child and or young person) overrides ANY signed disclosure contract/forms.
 
“This also implies to any disclosure (actual and implied) that involves an adult disclosing behaviour that is criminal in matter, that involves themselves and children and or is so serious, it warrants immediate intervention, in regards law enforcement services (e.g. Police, ATO/anti-fraud/money laundering unit, SCCIU (serious child, crimes, investigations unit) and or the Anti-Terrorism/counter-terrorism unit)
 
“Any person (foster carer and or not) in the community, who has a reasonable suspicion, (it does not need to be actual evidence) that a criminal activity has taken place and or is intent on taking place at some point in the future, is immediately covered from ANY legal action being taken against them. (This comes under the current Whistle-blowers Act 1999)
 
“This is not saying that people can just use these pieces of legislation to make slanderous accusations against other individuals and or agencies, because they feel like it, but if someone genuinely believes they have relevant information and or a source, they will NOT be prosecuted, as far as the law stands, at this point in time.

“Finally, I don't know why there was a clause added to this document, that involves "unions" as unions are only applicable to "paid staff" within a business and or department. Foster carers do receive financial remuneration, (depending on their individual caring responsibilities and the agencies they foster care for) but they are NOT paid staff.
 
“So they would not even be eligible to join a union, solely on the proviso, they are foster-carers. I don't know of any union in South Australia, that has foster carers as paid members? It’s not a registered/employable occupation for starters? I know of support groups that provide support (short and or longer term) for foster carers, but they are not unions?
 
“So someone point me in the right direction here? Just another quick point. There is NO legislated requirement at all, to get permission from a manager and or other senior person in an industry and or agency or department, BEFORE you disclose information, that meets the provisions of the Child Protection and Mandated Notification legislation (in this state at least)

“So...one has to ask, which MUPPETT from Analcare put this piece of DRIVEL together? I currently teach ***** *****  ******** students, who could have put a better contract together, than this piece of mushy-mushy, doesn't hold water rubbish.”

Anglicare gag order
Dunno Don’t Care
​
“It’s an interesting document. There's a very serious law for workers in the system must follow, they constantly remind clients of duty of care requirements if we are a danger to others or in danger ourselves. This document makes that punishable by sacking, if following duty of care crosses the lines of this gag order. It’s an illegal document.

“I’ve done duty of care training and mandated notification. Anglicare a law onto themselves. All managers think they are god…

“A parent has the right to know if a carer or manager does something they shouldn't. Doctors regularly abuse Foster kids, the first thing they do to all foster kids is pump them full of psyche drugs. Which, according to United nations law, if consent is not informed, is a crime against humanity. The kicker is, the drugs are not authorised to be used in children, most not authorised in persons below 25.the only authorised medications is meth, known by the brand name addaral or ritilin. I can provide you with the science if you so wish. Informed consent just does not happen.

“Anti-depressants and anti-psychotics (serequel the go to drug of choice for Foster kids) are not authorised for use in children and cause suicide and violent behaviour as well as lifelong brain damage.”

Had an old heart on the pillow
And the earth's was last nights bed

Then the phone rang.

Then they fight you

They've lost everything.

They stole 1 persons life, then they tried ending it, then they targeted it hoping it would crack. Its own kind turned against it by the animals that rule them. Those animals on thier way to the butcher now

ODE TO MEGAPHONE MAN
The Night Talker

I live opposite crackheads who play Devo each night,
between 10 and 2.
So, I phoned up Minister Lensink and asked, what can you do?
I just can’t get no sleep,
She told me to f*** off and or maybe try counting sheep…….

So, I said to her, “Don’t forget, I’m Homosapien too,
Homosapien just like you,”
Homosuperior in my interior.
But from the skin out, I’m Homosapien, too
Homosapien just like you,”

And I want to this to last (don’t you feel my angst too?)
If I ever get close enough, I’m going to shove my Megaphone right up your “kazoo”
All my future is past and gone,
And if that’s the case, I’m going back to SAHT head office, dressed as a “human-****”

And I just hope and pray,
That the day of judgement is written in the sand
You and I, me and you,
We will atomize when…

And the world is so wrong
That I hope I will be strong enough
For the SAHT says I am on my own
With only my megaphone to keep me strong …

Homosapien just like you,”
Homosuperior in my interior.
But from the skin out, I’m Homosapien too
Homosapien just like you,”

Miles Kemp at the crossroads
 
Word has it from a source working in the welfare industry that Nathan Russel was part of the drug scene. He lived in a block of units on Sturt Street, Adelaide reserved for dealers, addicts and cooks.
 
These are part of the same social strata that ambushed me at the Hutt Street Centre three years ago. They got Robyn the Junkie to smack me in the teeth hoping that I’d retaliate and they could come in and do some real damage saying they were defending a small elderly frail woman.
 
The junkies including Mark Arstall even got a journalist named Miles Kemp from the Sunday Mail and a photographer from the Advertiser newspaper to record the event. The two hacks were too ignorant of the drug scene to understand what was happening and did a positive write-up for the junkies.  
 
Miles Kemp should investigate Nathan Russel’s life and the cooks who operate out of the apartment block where he lived and how they prey on the homeless in the Adelaide CBD.

Housing Trust, vaccines
​and social isolation

From Dunno What is in a name
 
From the anonymous contact page
 
In America, nurses, social workers ect are receiving bonuses for every poor person they get to take the vaccine. The bonuses get larger if they get the victim to have the second shot

One company has withdrawn from the vaccine race stating its safer to catch covid and recover naturally than take the vaccine. They've studied the data coming in about those who have had a jab.

You can bet your sore bottom that the services for the poor here will recieve bonuses for everyone they get to take the jab. The easiest way is to deny services if you don't have the jab. First they will be nice about it, but if the dollars don't start rolling in, they will no Longer be nice.

The gov has spent 25 million on a advertising campaign to seel the jab. That 25 million could build alot of houses, run aheao of soup kitchens. The services know how to run soup Kitchens properly. They know that if the gave every council one million dollars to get community members to run a soup. Kitchen, not the services, it will actually save money. Take pressure off every service. Isolation is the biggest driver of the torment soup kitchen customers experience. But the charaties don't want strong communities. They want the money from the gov to patch over the issues

I feel for this mysterious megaphone man. I know what violence housing sa can bring down on someone. They don't forget and they are patient, highly skilled and powerful. Megaphone man in some trouble. They have paid druggies to do thier dirty work. Exploited the druggies.

I wish megaphone man luck.

How Megaphone Man outsmarted
​the Housing Trust

The drug dealers and a working couple who own their own unit amidst a Semaphore Park Housing Trust complex want revenge against Megaphone Man. He kept them awake at night with his megaphone announcements.
 
But Megaphone Man is no typical powerless welfare renter. He avoids the Housing Trust parking area designed to make cars and easy target of vandals. Instead he drives his car through the bushes and parks next to his unit. The local dealers and addicts are outraged. It made it harder for the latter to smash the windows and puncture the tyres of Megaphone Man’s car. The Housing Trust bureaucrats are outraged, but they haven’t any options except to cheerlead the rampaging Ice addicts. But they can’t do that openly, it would be too obvious.
 
Megaphone Man outsmarted them by discovering the centre grass and walkway between the rows of units is Council land and not the property of the Housing Trust. He provided medical details and got permission from the Council to cross Council land to get to his unit. The addicts and dealers have tried to block his access from the carpark to his unit, but he’s managed to sneak through the bushes.
 
Now, the working couple who bought their unit from the Trust and live next door to Megaphone Man do the same thing. This could become a feature of the housing complex with everyone avoiding the dangerous carparks.  You can’t even leave your car unlocked while you take a bags of groceries inside because the druggies will rob your other groceries still in your car. That’s the nature of Housing Trust neighbourhoods in Semaphore Park. And it is getting worse because the Housing Trust excludes clean-living underclass people from renting units in preference to drug dealers, criminals, arsonists and similar types of people.

Vaxxed to the max even on craxkz

Soup kitchens are gonna get real quiet. In a few weeks the vaxx that ain't a vaxx will be rolled out. If you don't get it, when offered, you won't get in.

Get in any of the services buildings. Any appointment.

If you have a unit through anti housing trust or anglic***s ect, say goodbye. First they won't come to fix shit.

Life be in it and wonder world take note of all The oldies telling you they're gonna get thier vaxx and then you don't see them again or they're crook next time you do.

Remember this.

Watchem drop like flies. The junkies, although hey, they cant help it, they've been through sh** and trying to survive, but they are what they are, it is what it is, they'll get knocked off from the first, definatley second jab.

But the oldies..

I remember serving oldies, struggling to make Ends meet, having the navigate ferals, the biggest ferals my collogies who worked for churches and shit, navigate the junkies, skanks, inbreds ect. They were so grateful, especially when you treated them as humans. It was also a social outing for them. They got so much out of it.

Now they getting this, abandoned when covid hit, made to be scared alone, nobody cared, nobody does still. Their bodies are weaker as a result, the vaxx will hit some hard and fast and start a process for the others..

They'll be forced to take it.

If You're fat, got a vice like grog, or even pokies, make your will.. Settle old grudges with people who meant something to you.

You won't last long if you refuse the jab. You'll be turned away by security gaurds every where you go. They allready tested it, with the mask.

However, there is things you can do before the jab and after.

Two South Australian Housing Trust employees visited Megaphone Man last week at his unit in Semaphore Park. It was a surprise housing inspection. They’d sent him a letter saying they’d be visiting, but not when. It was by chance the day before when he’d been at the office that he heard they’d be visiting the next day. His former housing manager, Sharon, hid in the back room leaving the talking to the receptionist. His new housing manager, Rena, has also backed off, either sideways or downward in the department.
 
One of the Housing Trust employees making the home visit said they’re trying to discover who publishes Adelaide Homeless Journal and press charges against that person. They said Megaphone Man wasn’t allowed to speak to those operating the website or there would be repercussions. They didn’t elaborate, but it appeared the surprise inspection was the preliminary shot in the intimidation. All illegal, of course, and which would be brought up in any court case. Not that this will happen as it wouldn’t look good the mighty Department of Human Services suing a collective of ex-homeless and homeless people.
 
So, what further trouble could these bureaucrats unleash on Megaphone Man? Well, they fell upon that well-worn tactic of accusing Megaphone Man of being a hoarder. They are sending another employee to his home to help him with his “hoarding problem”. Megaphone Man will know how to deal with this clown and others that will follow. The only tragedy is the wasted tens of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money going down the drain for hoarding counsellors when it could be used to build new houses.
 
Meanwhile, the drug dealers and addicts rampage through the neighbourhood, but are considered not a problem for the Housing Trust because they have “medical issues”.

Free food in North Adelaide
 
The Brougham Place Uniting Church sits majestically on the hill near that famous old communal house where the residents had sex with anyone until they got that nasty sexual disease that was difficult to treat. Luckily, the pleasant women in charge didn’t think I was the right person to move in.
 
The Uniting Church is a different sort of outfit. They want your name and phone number for their Covid register. The data miner said the details aren’t shared with anyone unless someone gets the virus, but never to the Eternal Shame File.
 
An older woman sat on a chair near the footpath directing new people into the free food room entrance, which is down some stairs and into the hall. There were just four of us waiting as the doors opened: a woman named Rita, an old woman with a fixed smile, a young man with a large dog that went into the church with him.
 
Church volunteers provided bags and getting the food was like going through a series of mini-interviews. You sort of negotiated for each item. I felt like asking them to tip the table towards me until my bag was full. They had fruit, vegetables, canned and packaged food and bread. The bread was two days old while the rest of the stuff was not fresh, but okay.
 
It was a gentile experience in a decaying building of yesteryear including the Uniting Church aspect of religious faith. The numbers  of believers using such iconic Adelaide churches are nothing compared to the new Christian churches, even those built from houses on quarter-acre blocks. But it was safe enviroment with no deranged Ice lunatics on the rampage. Not yet, anyway.

A nasty lunch in Elizabeth
 
Two women turned the corner from Shipton Street onto Ashfield Road, their arms swinging wildly as if they were on Ice. It was clear this wasn’t going to be a normal lunch at the Beacon of Hope church.
 
The thickly-muscled 50-year-old druggie husband of one of the women angrily scratched his legs. He removed his thick socks. He wasn’t happy. He avoided eye contact.
 
It was clear there would be trouble. Veterans of the drug scene had avoided the church free lunch for the past ten days. They knew from experience that the man was about to crack and that he had a history of violence. And violence in the Elizabeth drug scene is beyond in horror what you hear in the media.
 
The attacker and his missus had become homeless after a mysterious death in their share house near Marion. “Heart attack” one said as they locked eyes for a split second to confirm their story. After the death and after discovering they’d have to actually pay some rent, they fled to the city and then to Elizabeth. They were homeless and their lives were progressing through a familiar cycle to a predictable climax. They moved into a Housing Trust unit rented by an easily intimidated elderly disabled man. The crash was coming.  
 
From this powder keg situation, Big Al the Chef announced ominously that lunch would be served in the slightly secluded youth room. Three or four of us traipsed across the grass into the air-conditioned music and billiards room. Where was the usual crowd?
 
The two druggie women and the man joined us. The hot dogs, salad rolls and drinks were rolled in on a trolley. A church woman named Carol began distribution. Another ominous sign.
 
That small 63-year-old man from Salisbury Fred’s Van sat at the front table. He worked at the Ford car factory in Geelong before it closed down. He speaks softly so it is difficult to hear him. Many think he’s slow in the head.
 
The druggie man’s missus got up from her table and sat opposite the little man. Why she did this is anyone’s guess. Then she jumped up and ran to her husband. She said the little man had looked under the table at her legs. The druggie man ran over and sat opposite the little man. He spat in his face and told him to go outside with him. A 70-year-old frail man sitting at the same table told the little man to stay put. The violent druggie call him a dog and a mutt.  
 
The little man went outside.  The violent druggie was in a rage, stopping the little fellow from escaping across the lawn to the main building.
 
Two or three diners told Carol, the church woman serving the food, to call for help. The druggie has a reputation for assault. His son is a police officer who chose that career as a child after visiting his father in prison.
 
Carol has authority in the church, but instead of doing anything  she began talking in a sing-song voice as if she was performing in a church pantomime. She ignored the pleas to get help. There was no getting through to her. A family of five kids came in and she made each one do a little welfare dance before they were served. The druggie’s wife kept up a barrage of complaint against both the little man and the 70-year-old who defended him.
 
The diner waiting for cancer surgery and the ex-geologist got up and left. A 75-year-old woman said she didn’t come here for this and walked out.
 
The 70-year-old got up to leave. He was worried about the little man who had disappeared. The fully psychotic druggie was waiting at the gate. The druggie punched the old man in the side of his head and also hit his face.  The old man staggered. The druggie’s wife urged him to stop. The old man escaped across the carpark, then into his car and drove off.  
 
Meanwhile, the church property had an eerie feeling of emptiness. Where was everyone?

George the Elder (Old Nick) has moved into an independent living unit at the Southern Cross retirement joint in Plympton. It incorporates the former girls’ home where Kevin Crease’s sister got sent as an unruly child after her father sold her to sailors at Port Adelaide.
 
Things have changed now. It’s voluntary. George the Elder is expected to be home by 8:00pm, but he sneaks out at night to retain his sense of independence. He moved in due to confusion and much reduced eyesight. His presence is missed in the underclass scene.

A man said he applied for a job at Northline Transport on Grand Junction Road. They said he had to do a day of unpaid work to see how he went. At the end of the day, the boss told him he wasn’t needed. The man said Northline do this to get free labour.

Soldiers, police and private security guards stood around Pepper’s Hotel in Waymouth Street last Monday as a new load of Corona Virus suspects disembarked from a Kanga bus. The street was blocked off with high fencing on both ends of the street in front of the hotel just in case a super-spreader made a dash for it.

It was a man from Baptist WestCare who knocked down the woman aged in her early seventies in Rundle Mall a few months ago. She hasn’t recovered and is awaiting surgery. She appears to have had a stroke as well, but this is not confirmed nor is it clear if this is connected with the knockdown.

A homeless parent in the Elizabeth Motel where homeless drug addicts are sent said management report tenant behaviour to various government authorities and departments. Adelaide is riddled with spies.

Why do media hacks describe people as “loving their job? How many people really “love their job”? When unemployed people get jobs they are especially described as “loving their job”. Centrelink employees don’t seem to love their jobs.

Daniel Keen sells Big Issue magazine on the corner of Pirie and King William Streets in the city. He says business is not good. He recounted the many times he’s been attacked, spat upon and in once instance a woman poured coffee in his bag holding his Big Issue magazines.
 
Daniel carries two metro cards. One for himself and another for people who are told to get off the bus because they don’t have money.
 
Big Issue has very few articles about homeless people except those quoting vendors saying how grateful they are to Big Issue. It’s like a homeless cancel-culture.

The two old people living in their car have given up looking for a place. Their furniture is safely in storage so they’re not going to move into housing. She said they don’t trust the Housing Trust, anyway. She said she sat on Category 1 twelve years ago and never heard from them. She said they lie to you and just want you out the door.
 
She also said they use a commercial laundromat because Orange Sky Laundry wash cycle is too short and leaves the clothing still dirty. And they don’t dry the clothing properly in those driers.
 
I added that the two-hour sessions is too short. All that setting up times for so little a period of time.

That ginger-haired small man who used to get food from rubbish bins was with the Public Trustee. The Hutt Street Centre issued him with small amounts of money to buy tobacco every few days. According to a homeless woman he was quite wealthy, but the Public Trustee stopped him from accessing his savings and his pension in his account. The story going around was that he’d damaged his brain with methylated spirits and was nearly a zombie.
 
His clothing was often filthy and old. The homeless woman said she got the Public Trustee to issue him $500 to buy new clothing.

Those kids who go to the Beacon of Hope for lunch during school holidays raise eyebrows of other diners. We have become so imbued with fear propaganda that kids riding around their neighbourhood on bicycles seems unnatural. The deep state have got us thinking natural behaviour is unnatural and vice versa.

Ultra-thin Jackie, Ice user, street psychiatrist, often lives on doorsteps in the city. She says homeless people are being kidnapped by dark forces. Some scoff at this, but it is possible they are being used for crystal amphetamine experiments.
 
Drug corporations are using universities to develop methamphetamines for use by shift workers and emergency service workers. If they destroy a few drug addicts already brain-damaged then further injuries won’t be noticed. And test subjects dying can be covered-up quite easily.
 
Jackie might know something the rest of us pretend we don’t see.

The older blue-eyed woman has returned to the Elizabeth homeless scene. She went a little wild before Christmas and disappeared. She often sleeps outside near the police station and shopping centre.

Lisa from Fred’s Van Salisbury said she won’t leave any money to charities unless they say how much their C.E.O.’s get. The exception is the Smith Family. Lisa said they provided stationery and money for clothing for her children at school. And one-to-one tutoring and mentorship when they had trouble in certain subjects.

A 90-year-old said he moved into a large group of ground floor Housing Trust units at Elizabeth nineteen years ago. He said all the tenants were old people. Then the Housing Trust began moving in drug addicts who were younger and the trouble started. He said they currently have four empty units, one of which has been empty for over six months. “And you hear about people needing houses,” he said.
 
*
 
The drug lady living outside got pregnant in Elizabeth. The father disappeared once he found out. She got housing in a burnt-out Housing Trust unit in Mansfield Park. It has been renovated, but you never get the burnt odour out.
 
She showed us miniature boots she’d brought for the baby. In her mind, she thought she was going to keep it. Welfare told her that if she stayed out of jail she could keep her baby.
 
You’ve read this story before, up this point, in Adelaide Homeless Journal.
 
She had the kid and Welfare immediately confiscated it. She’d tested positive for drugs during her pregnancy. She had no understanding how to live outside her drug circle. You can imagine how she felt. They put her in Glenside Psychiatric Hospital.
 
Not everyone is sympathetic. One female drug addict said she deserved it. She was a druggie. Some men at a free food venue were sad.
 
*
 
The chef known as Big Al at the Beacon of Hope Church of Christ free lunch service went on holidays for three weeks over Christmas. He said he felt sick the day before his holidays started and was sick the whole time.
 
Big Al mostly works without pay at the Beacon of Hope. He spent years raising money for St Luke’s church at Whitmore Square.
 
 
*
 
A soup kitchen client good at producing healthy babies said she won’t apply for a Housing Trust house as they no longer have back yards for children. The houses and units are more suited for drug addicts and single people. The woman, who is a good mother, says she will rent privately. She said she inspected one rental house and discovered 50 people had applied to rent it.
 
*
 
A soup kitchen client said “F” block at Yatala is now controlled by the Protectees.
 
*
 
A male client from the Beacon of Hope phoned the Fines Expiation Unit and asked to pay off his ambulance bill in fortnightly instalments. The police officer spoke to him politely while he asked the usual welfare questions. The man is on the lower dole payments and lives near the Avondale Apartments. He is quiet and reasonable.
 
*
 
Whenever we talk about housing at free food venues the subject comes up of “refugees” getting housing while Australian citizens are homeless.
 
This may be a “politically incorrect” conversation, but it is the subject of nearly every conversation about housing.

The good, the bad and the mouldy: Fred’s Van Kilburn

It was another case of the fear porn industry having had its intended effect. Exactly half the 64 chairs were occupied by diners as the food began being served. Evelyn and one or two others arrived late. That made it 35 at best.  Before the Plandemic we’d have seventy.
 
Before the diners were allowed in, Orange Sky volunteers talked to those three ex-derelicts who have accumulated some wisdom during their unconventional lives.
 
A Care Worker with her three children felt guilty being at Fred’s Van. Rails, 78, said it was for everyone, not just homeless people. The Arab woman with her surly son appeared less belligerent than usual. He has a sense of entitlement that rivals third generation Elizabeth lifelong welfare recipients.
 
The white woman who dresses as an Egyptian wore Cleopatra make-up, at least the Elizabeth Taylor version. Gaavin and his new missus are getting married in two months. She showed me a photograph of her pleasantly modest wedding dress. She isn’t some old tart pretending to be young. Before meeting her, Gaavin broke up with Teresa. It was a wise move. Teresa might have put him in the freezer, in packages
 
Half the diners were animated while the other half were islands unto themselves. They sat either physically alone or alone in a crowd.
 
The Wine Centre soup was excellent. The nachos (corn chips) were accompanied with a hamburger filling or a vegetarian option. There was falafel, sour cream and grated cheese followed by real chopped fruit and cream, and lamingtons.
 
Salt and pepper was kept behind the serving counter and controlled by staff. It was like that Broome pub where an off-duty police detective moonlighted as a barman while selling drugs from under the counter.
 
The takeaway bags were the shocker. They contained plastic containers of falafel that on closer inspection were covered in a white and green mould. They were the same batch from which the falafel served in the meal were sourced.
 
Fred’s Van Kilburn
Kilburn Community Centre, 59 Gladstone Avenue, Kilburn. 7:00pm every Thursday. Sit down meals have resumed. Not so good takeaway bags at end of meal. Occasional fights. I.D. or registration not required. Orange Sky Laundry free washing. Meals improving. Good toilets. Decent Catholics.

Where have all the diners gone?
 
There were only a dozen takeaway bags for perhaps 25 diners at Fred's Van Salisbury last Sunday. Not that the bags were any good, anyway, mostly stale bread.
 
Volunteers gave decent leftover Christmas presents to Cambodian Jenny’s daughter and another girl. The meal included Maranello pizza, nice vegetarian pasta, a hamburger meal with fresh salad followed by an excellent chocolate cake with fake cream out of an aerosol can. My favourite.
 
The dangerous couple took one look at the main meal and threw it into the rubbish and walked out. The quality Indian Fiji woman sitting next to them had walked out soon after they sat down next to her. Some diners arriving hoping for a friendly scene are inevitably faced with the continuing and never-ending dysfunction and trauma of the crowd. That’s the nature of free meal places.
 
A group of white men who replaced those mentioned above at our table talked about being on the Housing Trust waiting list for over twenty years. Rather than being the exception, this is the standard for white Australian men. To be fair, it also includes some white women and most Australian citizens of all ethnic extractions. The reader might think this is racist talk, but it is the reality of government welfare rental housing in Adelaide.
 
A white Australian said he was told at a job interview that he was of the “wrong culture” for operating machines making milk containers. He complained to a Job Network joint and now he got the job, but is nervous about recriminations. He also fears the demands of the job as he's nearing 60 and is in bad health. It’s a cutthroat work environment these days.
 
Stormy Summer’s former right-hand man appears sicker every month from obesity, diabetes and age.
 
Kevin took a meal out to the Old Guy who claims his ankles are no good for walking from his car. Everyone has a story.
 
The tables in the hall were spread out even more than before, but outside we ignored social distancing. No one believes that stuff anymore except The Magnificent Marten.
 
Many regulars were missing such as Mick and Denise, the Barkuma crowd, the old woman who escaped from a nursing home, the man who said he was going to kill himself, Peter Dawson (dead), Wheelman Wayne (abducted to a nursing home), the drug addict couple who’s kids were taken away, the fat woman who’s kids were also taken away, Adam and Ricky, the illiterate man who lives in the best house in Salisbury and heaps of others. Gone. Maybe they believe in the virus.
 
Fred’s Van Salisbury
Salisbury Institute building, 17 Wiltshire St, Salisbury (next to PBA-FM radio station).
6:00pm Sunday. The meal is served inside the hall. The quality is excellent with much of it baked at the volunteers' homes, but the actual session is too rushed. Dirty toilets. Not too much fighting between rival gangs, but old people frequently accusing each other of being greedy.
Free. No I.D. required. No data entry into the Eternal Shame File, but huge government cameras in the foyer and dining room. Orange Sky Laundry. Takeaway bags much improved.

(above) South Australian Housing Trust at Salisbury paid the bond and rent to landlord Dominic Polena for a room for an elderly homeless man at 2 Taunton Avenue, Salisbury. The exhausted man was overjoyed until he discovered there was no electricity, gas or water at the premises. Or keys for the doors. The Polena family have similar tricks and the Housing Trust aren’t bothered about spending taxpayers’ money with them. (Adelaide Homeless Journal January 2021).

Lois Lane back in action
 
Lois has restarted her free food Saturday events, but there is less than before. The Almighty Bruce from Faithworks isn’t supplying enough. Perhaps he’s holding it back at their Blair Athol joint that sells stuff alongside the free stuff. And he wants returned what Lois doesn’t give away. That goes somewhere else.
 
Service was slow last Saturday because only one or two clients are allowed into the garage at one time. Lois runs a tight ship, SARS virus-wise. Annie, Rene Darker and Trevor Lane help Lois every Saturday.
 
There were bags of Lindt chocolate, Mission salsa, soft drinks, mineral water, bread, fruit and vegetables, flour, rice, noodles and a few grocery items. The quality ranged from questionable to okay.
 
To contradict what was said about stuff going back, the White Fella was there who collects everything left over and takes it to the Port Augusta transit camp. That was an initiative of the Social Inclusion unit about 15 years ago when Monsignor David Cappo and child molester protector David Waterford set up a Soweto-style housing camp on the old Davenport Community site two or three kilometres outside of Port Augusta. The White Fella said the transit camp is rundown with broken windows.
 
It was to keep the desert Black Fellas out of Port Augusta and discourage them from coming further south to Adelaide. Like the ochre wagons the White Fella colonial government sent up north from the ochre pit near Maree to discourage the Black Fellas from coming south.
 
Anyway, the White Fella is a Christian preacher and said he saw a huge bright figure in the sky. When it disappeared, a bunch of white angels flew around him. He said others saw them as well. Anton the Sceptic asked him for a blessing. Anton is a genuine university academic who studies these things.
 
Malcolm from the Housing Trust Gloucester apartments said his fridge broke down in December, but he bought another one last week for forty dollars. Lois said she had eight brothers and sisters and was spurned for her poverty as a child. That’s why she gives away free stuff including clothing.
 
Two men in a removalist truck arrived and took away a few boxes of bread. One had a punctured lung.
 
Lois is planning to open at 9:00am in future to avoid the heat, but until then it starts at 10:00am. Lois Lane’s real name is Lois Wellcome. She’s losing weight and is beginning to look like Brenda from Beacon of Hope church. Not Brenda from the Hutt Street Centre. Where the hell did she disappear to?
 
Lois Lane’s free food at Elizabeth Downs
58 McKenzie Road, Elizabeth Downs (close to Main North Road). Saturdays 10:00am to 11:00am. Free fruit, vegetables, bread, groceries, bottled drinks, knick-knacks, clothing and sometimes hot soup. I.D. not required as they don’t subscribe to the Eternal Shame File. Friendly. Very good place.

Victory Church free BBQ
​has returned to Salisbury

The ambulance driving preacher and the Egyptian judo master and physiotherapist weren’t there. The preacher moved to a new church in Kadina where he drives ambulances.
 
Three women and a man operated the BBQ trailer. And there were three clients only including Bruce from Port Adelaide. We also called up four African and Aboriginal wine drinkers from the creek bed.
 
The Victory Church quartet offered bottled water along with hamburger patties, sausages, white bread, fried onions, tomato and BBQ sauce. Everything was clean and nice. They offered warm soft drinks as we were leaving. Maybe they forgot they had them.
 
It wasn’t as interesting as the Salisbury railway station, but it was safer. The only part I regret was spending 40 minutes badmouthing Chinese before realising two of the church volunteers serving me a free lunch were Chinese Christians.
 
Victory Church at Salisbury
Near the toilets used by drug addicts in Pittman Park at the corner of Commercial Road and Bridge Street, Salisbury. Across the creek bed where that woman was raped just before Christmas. Free BBQ and drinks from 12:00noon to 2:00pm every Friday. No I.D. or registration required. No seating.

Red Shield Destroyer (Salvation Army)

DUO'S (deranged unhinged Orwellians)

Her father married a very religious lady connected to an interstate salvation army brigade. Her son interfered with her from age 9 to 13. The mother in law bullied her for it, she ran away to South Australia at age 13. Unfortunately she ran to a town probably the most poisoned with kiddy fiddlers Australia has ever known. She ended up with borderline personality disorder lived quite a life of doing what she wanted and surrounded by ferals who had no excuse, like she did. The system didn't want to help her.

She found a guy and her life changed. But her peers and Foster families and mother wouldn't let her change, hounded her. She ended up beating up on the guy quite badly and when he walked away she went psycho. Ended up on a number of charges for domestic violence stalking and breaching restraining orders. She loved the guy and he offered a future for her children to no hopers. A future she never had. She didn't handle him walking away very well.

She got 50 odd hours community service and decided to do it at a salvoes store. The major took her under her wing. She eventually moved to another town in the brigades region and life changed. She got work. Then moved back to her home state to be with nearer her sick father. The salvos helped her rebuild life with her family. She would volunteer as a youth worker and at soup kitchens and eventually land paid work with the salvoes. Then bang got sick quick and died horribly. In her early 40s.

Around the time she got sick the guy she couldn't handle him leaving, turns up to duos on Pirie Street one Saturday. He didn't know the major that helped his ex, was working there. Duos targeted him.

That went further than that and put him on the blacklist, so everywhere he went, he got shit. Everywhere that took gov money.

If he was sitting on his own, they wouldn't deliver him food. They would ignore him when put his hand up, they got so blatant it didn't matter if he was sitting with anyone. He was forced to only deal with blow in volunteers to get service. Little dick fat gut Bob the builder was particularly nasty.


He would make friends there and they would do their best to interfere. Their go to tactic was give them work, so they weren’t available to dine.

They would stand right behind him and ignore him, when everyone else had food and he didn't. So he would pull his phone out and watch porn.

Prior to him coming into the dead girls life she had defrauded Centrelink of around 20 grand and paying it off
Developed a pokie habit.
Kids to 2 men with constant child protection involvement.
Dozens of hospital admissions for depression
A reputation as the town bike.
On pysch drugs that just made her worse.
Convictions for assault of former partners, theft etc
Debts to Housing Trust in the tens of thousands.
So on so on.

That all changed when he came into her life. He was having her debts paid off
Food on the table every night.
The ferals using her in her sad way, chased away
Her gambling and drug use stopped.
He bought a nice house, she had security for the first time.
Had all the things she wanted, Internet, pay-tv..
Kids getting proper parenting

Then child protection came back into her life. The father suspected of interfering with her daughter. Child protection played the mother and father against each other. This sent her pyscho, bring back memories of what happened to her.

She and he would take the child to child sexual assault unit at the women's and children. For physical and psychological evaluation.
Her Mental health would deteriorate further and her peers would not support her, continue to try and bring her down. Child protection would continue to play father against mother and even target him.

No charges were ever laid. Child protection would eventually help mother and father with the kids.

One manager had a vendetta against her. F***ed with her life as it started going somewhere.

He walked away. She tried killing him.

Should he do onto Others as was done onto him?

Adelaide City Council’s SouthWest Community Centre (SWCC)
is now in Minor Works building, Stamford Court, south of Adelaide Central Market by about 2 blocks

It’s a bit like a scaled back Federal Box Factory on Carrington Street. SWCC hours are 9-5 Monday to Friday except Tuesday 9:30 to 5. Also closed from 12 noon to 12:30. Has seating area, good staff but would not wish druggies drunkies on staff or place.

Two computers come on at about 9:30 a.m. Kitchen facilities not usable at present time perhaps due to viral stuff. Pleasant place for pleasant people to include civilised homeless.

The homeless housing business
​at Salisbury

The elderly man has been homeless for years. We see him occasionally at soup kitchens, but not often. He’s never trouble to anyone.
 
Recently, he’s lost his energy and is fearful of life on the streets near the $43 million Salisbury Council building. He went to the Housing Trust who paid for a bond and one week rent on a room at 2 Taunton Avenue, Salisbury. It’s one of the dozen or more rooming houses operated by the Polena family in Salisbury and surrounding suburbs.
 
The homeless man’s case manager at some helping agency arranged the room and payment. The man was overjoyed that he’d have a place to rest. You get so exhausted living outside that you lose the ability to make rational decisions.
 
He thought it strange that he didn’t receive any keys and when he walked to the house he discovered that no one had keys. Nor was there electricity, gas or water. It had been turned off. That’s what he told us.
 
He should have expected something like that. The housing trust had made a similar payment to the same landlord, Dominic Polena, six months previously. Dominic took the money and said he’d tell him when a room was available. Two days later, Polena told the homeless man he hadn’t any rooms and offered to pay him half the money back that the Housing Trust had paid him. In other words, a sort of kickback.
 
Another tenant said the Polena’s have rent books for tenants, but don’t let the tenants see them. And they sometimes come back a second time for rent for the fortnight already paid for. This tenant said there are 16 outstanding housing complaints against the Polena family, but no government department or tribunal will do anything about them.
 
Meanwhile, the man was beside himself at Fred’s Van Salisbury. He said he’d go home and make a coffee, but remembered there wasn’t any water. Another man at our table said the way to get a Housing Trust unit if you’re white was to threaten to kill yourself. Another diner who has been on the waiting list for 20 years said the Salisbury office told him to “get more letters”. I added that the Trust units across the street from where I live had four empty units, one for six months.
 
The business people, the politicians, the bureaucrats, the do-gooders, the advocates, they’re all in it together.

We have a number of faces. We don't show that face to everyone. This face has seen a number of their faces. You obviously have not seen those faces otherwise you wouldn't of got in my face.

Yes, you [The Night Talker] did share some wisdom about not judging a book by its cover but it appears you did just that with me.

They have one face for clientele they sit with and another for the service providers they sit with. I've seen both faces.

Well, I don't judge him, as I've heard a very heart wrenching story from him about previous experiences that have left damage. He sits and says nothing when it shows her real face to the elite of these food services…

People Living in sand dunes don't need to be made to feel the way it makes them Feel. When it's spending a fortune on petrol and oil
(thanks Megaphone man) to get there.

There would be no problem if it had human decency.

WANDERING MINSTREL LEE @ WESTCARE

Lee, an ex taxi driver from Sydney is also a
guitar virtuoso of some note and now of emerging importance at Westcare (if that could possibly be considered an achievement).

Lee arrives at Westcare direct from two big gigs ; LEE & THE JAYWALKERS - a one man vagrant pedestrian busking show and another band formed with Paul McCartney impersonator
- bass player BAREE SMALL and Westcare client WILLIAM to feature as LEE AND THE SMALL WILLIES.

While trying to find ways to access Lee's guitar skills as a Westcare volunteer, Westcare decided to facilitate Lee's skills
as a taxi driver instead. Lee now drives the Westcare Tarago, transporting 1st nation elders to Westcare's Thursday roasts.

Lee has a distinct London 60s psychodelic
remission problem and has already named the
baptist tarago THE MAGIC BUS. He has also asked permission to repaint the tarago paisley on pink. Ken said nyet!
The first nation elders have no comment.

Wait for the next session of the Wandering Minstrel show.
 
Editor: Excellent, WestCare needs a follow-up to Jayne Hewittson. I look forward to further posts. The readers like real on-the-street tales.

Could ya please provide some stats on how many public housing tenants are really homeless because of hell of public housing ?

also if public housing tenants are being forced by bad conditions to leave public housing, how many are now on the streets through no fault of their own

but by corrupt government trying to sell off public housing properties to developers and overseas investors such a red china ?

thx

Free food at North Adelaide

Having visited the uniting church in a Brougham place today I was served by overzealous volunteers. The gatekeeper was friendly - but they seem to be very cautious how many items of food they are willing to hand out - loaf of bread, a few spuds, one can of Diet Coke, limited amount of fruit & veg & a few loafs of bread were on offer - I was even followed to the ladies toilet and had a send-off like I’ve never had so many ppl say good bye in one day!!!

No small talk, they were obviously of some sort of benevolent high- one volunteer made a comment about how many Vietnamese ppl coming through - have we more boat ppl!??

It takes all sorts to make the world, but north Adelaide folk try to be something when they’re not!!

Michelle Lensink’s department pays a shonky crowd to rehabilitate child criminals​

Stephanie Richards reports on the InDaily website that the S.A. Department of Human Services has awarded Service to Youth Council (SYC) a $300,000 contract to help children convicted of crimes avoid being locked up by doing programs involving “structured work activities” and “reflect on their offending”.
 
But “Golden Steph” appears to have forgotten that SYC’s Director of Corporate Strategy, Michael Scott Lawson Clark, got two years in the slammer last June for knocking off $350,000 from SYC’s bank account. Michael should join the kids for “structured work activities” and reflect on his offending.
 
How could the government award a contract to a “non-for-profit” who’s executive was a bigger crook than the kids they’re supposed to be helping.
 
But then SYC has been rotten for decades. They infiltrated Skillshare programs in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s in hostile takeover bids to grab their funding.

SYC could hire the worst of the child criminals and they wouldn't need rehabilitating, they'd be already fit for the job.  
 
So, what is the motive of the government awarding this contract? Does CYC provide alibi function for the government privatising the program and thus reducing spending on this service.
 
And one might also ask why InDaily used a photograph of white hands gripping the iron bars of a prison cell? Aren’t most of those in the program from an indigenous background?

Adelaide CBD homeless
​rises slightly again

The Adelaide Zero Project via its partners and Neami National report another slight rise in homeless people in the Adelaide CBD square mile.
 
It rose from November to December from 201 to 206. Those homeless people in temporary hotel and motel accommodation in the city dropped from 63 to 58. Those classed as Actively Homeless Other dropped from 28 to 27. Rough sleepers rose from 110 to 121.
 
The Adelaide Zero Project ―currently led by Anglicare C.E.O. Peter Sandeman and Catherine House former C.E.O. Louise Frost ― claimed in early 2018 that it would reach Functional Zero Homelessness in two years. But instead of going down the number has gone up.
 
Inner city actively homeless numbers:
December 2018 was 155.
December 2019 was 193.
December 2020 was 206.
 
After nearly three years the levels have risen despite millions of dollars spent on data collecting and counselling of homeless people instead of building houses.
 
This is also due in part to the government’s policy of keeping hundreds of public houses and units “refugee ready” and “domestic violence victim ready”. Another problem is the so-called “non-profits” like Junction, Community Housing, Anglicare and others keeping units empty for months, even years at a time, for bureaucratic reasons.
 
One group of Anglicare units in Elizabeth reserved for those over 55 have stayed empty for nearly three years despite old people being homeless and living in their cars. Homeless Australian citizens trying to move in are told the waiting list is too long or the buildings are about to be “redeveloped” yet refugee-types are constantly moving in and out. And they are in their 20’s and 30’s despite the benevolent housing assoications that indirectly bequeathed them to Anglicare stipulating they were for older people only.

The fake pledge of reducing homelessness in Adelaide by spending more money on data collectors and counsellors was promoted in early 2018.

Aldi staff’s magnificent donation to the homeless

Munno Para Aldi staff gave $1400 of their annual bonus credit to Cos We Care. The staff used it to purchase fresh vegetables and Christmas food. When the Cos We Care volunteers were loading their truck with the donations, the regular Second Bite truck arrived.
 
When they saw what Cos We Care were getting, they drove off without picking up their regular load of surplus and old fruit, bread and vegetables. So Cos We Care got that, too.
 
Some Aldi staff went to the city the following Sunday and helped distribute the food and serve coffee. They liked it. Cos We Care clients are generally the most genuine of the underclass and homeless crowd.
 
And Cos We Care continued operating at full capacity throughout the Christmas and New Year period, unlike the big money government-funded charities.

Re: couple from LeFevre...

“My mother used to say to me, "don't a-s-s-u-m-e as it makes an ass out of u and I! What you might see at first glance, is rarely the case, if you start to dig a bit deeper...

“I drive a really nice, low km, European Estate Wagon, and someone made the comment, that I must be loaded to be able to afford it......What they didn't realize is that it is 18 years old and currently insured for a whopping (wait for it) $4800.00 dollars. I also didn't pay anything for it, because I did a exchange at a car-yard , handing over my (very high km) Mazda 3 for it.
 
“I also live in my own house, but it is 67 years old, and needs a pile of renovations. Its also not situated in a wealthy Adelaide suburb, but in a small country town… north of Adelaide, that contains less than 600 people. I also work for a Government Department as a trainer/teacher, but only casually. so when I am not paid by my employer during school/term breaks, I have to rely on Centrelink to have enough money to live on. So my point being, that on the surface I tick all the boxes, but if you dig a bit deeper, this becomes less certain...... As with the couple from LeFevre, what you see, isn't always the case, if you do a bit more digging.

You are gone and lost forever…
 
Rose Darling’s outfit has taken over the Nanna’s Free Food Basket breakfast on Fridays outside the Masonic Centre in Port Adelaide. Rose owned a transport company before selling it and taking up unpaid work.
 
Nanna’s was also evicted from the Bower Cottages owned by the Port Adelaide Council and moved operations to the Queenstown Community Centre.
 
This is connected with the dispute with Megaphone Man at Semaphore Park who has connections. A neighbour of a Nanna’s leading figure phoned death threats to Megaphone Man. A group of them were waiting for Megaphone Man at Fred’s Van Semaphore, but a source there warned him and he stayed away.
 
All the above is connected with Julie Mann and Sue Koumidis who have been warned by police that they’re at risk of being charged with stalking a prisoner recently released.
 
And illegal drug sales and brain damage caused by the substances are at the heart of this dispute. Good people damaged. It’s a tragedy in the making, already made, as all those involved are reacting to others who are reacting to their own trauma. Friendships are gone and lost forever.
 
Details of ongoing Port Adelaide free food services will be published in about three weeks.

“There's a couple frequent the outer western suburbs free food scene. They live by arndale but use the lefevre peninsular services. Quite a drive. They do this in a…It's probably worth at least 70 grand. At one place they frequent that spends 50 bucks a day on the breakfast, the rest donations, the serving small it costs this couple about half that to get thier and back.

“When they go to these places they gossip about the people there who need it. They give evil looks and avoid some. They sneer at people. And avoid them like they have a disease. Some of these people good people. They find like Minded people to Sit with and do this. The gossiping disgusting. She's an ex cop. From holden Hill. At the time holden Hill was the most corrupt station in adelaide. He is traumatised. He lost his last wife in horrific circumstances and when he talks you can see the damage, hear his voice stutter, his brain struggle. Both have quite abit of money. He appears to be under her spell, is much younger than her. Almost a toy boy. He is heart broken and preyed upon by this monster.

“But what are they doing there, why are they allowed to behave the way they do, towards the most vulnerable. They think they're better and act accordingly. At the port church the pastors wife has sat with them and joined in the nasty conversations about people who need the service. I remember the pastors wife speaking about drug dealers at nanas apple crumble brain kitchen. I looked around, I could see a few there who sold drugs from time to time. But poor old nanas apple crumble brain was being slandered. I know that pot is regularly exchanged at port church or dealer and user networked. I know what goes on at arnadle salvos, where the second in command at port Church works. Bin divers know everything, used…found in sealed bags from thier offices.

“But back to the ex cop. The staff at most of these know what they're doing, the way they are making people feel and how they don't need the service in anyway. They refuse people second serves, people Living in cars, sand dunes, starving people.

“But they feed these monsters, clean Up after these Monsters, cook for these Monsters, most of them volunteers with a big work load. The couple praying on the weak, making themselves feel better at others expense.

“Anyone who sits with them, no different.

“Why haven’t they been put in their place?
 
From “I have a soul What is in a name.”
 

Second Editor: Thanks for your insights. Very interesting.
 
Yes, those that need it most don’t get it. The free food joints aren’t geared for homeless people. The atmosphere discourages them to say the least.
 
However, I saw the ex-cop at Semaphore buy a handbag and other stuff for a disabled woman. It was new, not Op Shop junk. The ex-cop is popular. The car isn't worth $70K. It’s old and it blows smoke. They both share a Housing Trust joint in a lousy suburb. And the free food joints allow them to be there. They welcome them. And this couple don't deal drugs or exploit clients in any way. They're friendly with them. 
 
But you’re dead right about the treatment of the homeless crowd. We’re too fragile when we’re homeless and become disturbed going to most of these joints. I avoided them during my ten years living outside even when I had no income and verged on starvation. Being disabled and having difficulty standing up, this didn’t stop Salvo staff from waving their fists in front of me in a threatening manner.
 
It is ironical that when you need them they’re not accessible; when you don’t need them, they are.

And, finally, we don't know all the reasons people go to these places. Many are dying or in their last two years of life. Or suffered injuries that isolate them from nearly everyone else. 
 
If you have any photographs or scans of welfare documents showing unfair conditions your offering will be greatly appreciated.

A retired truck driver said that he went from 110kgs to 70kgs from using gout pills to keep him awake. He got huge boxes of them from a doctor under prescription. He was popular with women working at road houses who used them to stay awake and ― perhaps unintentionally ― to lose weight.

Volunteers at the Kidman Park Salvo Store were amazed as usual at post-Christmas donations. So many unopened children’s’ toys. Do the kids take one look and toss them aside unopened?
 
Times have changed with kids’ toys. Boys no longer get slug guns, knives and slingshots. And girls seen with dolls is a no-no. More like make-up and whore-style clothing to sexualise them too early. And electronic devices to access damaging images and video. Evil is in charge. At least the Salvos don’t push that stuff. Porn goes straight into the bin.

Anglicare furnished another unit on Christmas eve in the half-empty aged housing complex at Elizabeth in preparation for bringing in more refugee-types. The Anglicare removalists have either been kept in ignorance as who is moving in or have been ordered to keep quiet. “Sorry,” one removalist said.  A few days later another refugee-type moved in. Another human being.

The new showers at the Hutt Street Centre are excellent. Too bad each client is challenged at the front door by that guard and the Eternal Shame File lady. At least Robyn the Junkie and the Clued-up Drug Dealer are gone. And what happened to that brain-damaged Mark Arstall?

A Hutt Street Centre client went to the House of Chow for lunch. He avoided the abalone at $98 or the Murray Cod that didn’t show a price on the menu. He chose chicken because he said Chow means Dog in Chinese and he didn’t want to eat dog or cat meat.
 
There wasn’t any salt or pepper on the tables so he walked around the restaurant full of Chinese people speaking Chinese. He found salt and pepper in a corner. He asked for a knife and fork to replace the chopsticks on the table. He said the plates were old like you buy in Op Shops. “Even worse,” he said. “And the cutlery seemed as old.”

Turning a shower into a ten-dollar ordeal
 
How much should a lousy shower cost the donors who fund the service? And how good should it be? Expecting a homeless person in the door and out in fifteen-minutes is ridiculous.
 
You rummage through your bags, find your clean clothing, get undressed, get the hot water going (that can be a nightmare), shower, maybe shave, wash your hair, dry yourself and get dressed, brush your teeth at the handbasin inside the cubicle, brush your hair, maybe replace menstruation pads, get dressed, pack up your bags, discretely dispose of consumables and walk out the door.
 
A shower operator at One Life church at Parafield said 4 minutes for a shower while another at City Salvos said 15 in the cubicle. But a person who has slept on cold ground or concrete the previous night and hasn’t had a shower for two-weeks might do well with 45 to 60 minutes in the cubicle. Why not?
 
Well, one reason is that the shower truck ― when it is operating ― stays at a location for just two hours. Allowing for setting up the actual time is 90-minutes and at some locations there can be a rush of clients ― when it is actually operating, of course.
 
It should be at a regular location for a whole day each week without fail to avoid a rush. It should be left at the location instead of the operator having to drive to Parafield, pick up the truck and then return it two-hours later and then drive back home. Keeping it where it was most used would reduce exhaustion of volunteers, diesel use, and wear and tear on the truck.
 
When the shower van is parked in a discrete location a sign should be placed on the street advertising the service including times. The truck should also be parked near toilets; pretty obvious you might say.
 
The expensive 9-litre LPG cylinders should be replaced with cheaper 45-litre bottles that require less frequent replacing.
 
And maybe turn up the water temperature. How hard can it be to do that? When I’ve spoken to the operators in the past ― when it was actually operating ― their voices go all funny when asked why the water isn’t hot.
 
As it is, the truck is a $100,000 resource sitting idle while getting a shower is one of the most important requirements when living outside, just behind sleep and food. And how much does each shower offered cost the donors? Ten dollars, twenty dollars?

 The Monster Brothers on Grenfell Street

Druggards drunkards dullards who week-daily sit on their drug bums on the Grenfell Street city council benches by Rundle Mall Plaza have moved to squatting on footpath adjoining Bendigo Bank directly in back of the bum benches.

Perhaps bright sunlight in morning gets in drug-affected eyes too easily, making it hard to glare and stare.

Also, drug bums can more easily bum beg bugger money from passersby in this lowly traditional posture of pleading.

Plus the police are less apt to notice drug bums on their buns when sitting inconspicuous and lowly.

Hate to gossip but when public and private safety are at risk, will point out a drug predator mob maneuvre.

Steer clear of Monster Drug Mob.

Get ready for recycled lies
 
A Hutt Street Centre client and Housing Trust tenant said Oaklands Park Housing Trust tenants shouldn’t believe a word from Michelle Lensink, the Minister for Housing.
 
The tenant said any promise that current residents will be able to return to the area once the eight-year redevelopment nightmare is completed should be treated as a lie.
 
He said the same promise was made to tenants in the Athol Park and Ferryden Park major redevelopments, but in most cases never happened. He said the key is the fine print in the relocation contracts tenants are forced to sign. There is no mention of having the right to return once the new housing is completed.
 
Meanwhile, Junction CEO Maria Palumbo has betrayed her clients by spruiking the redevelopment. She said the project “… is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to improve this area and above all, the outcomes for everyone who is part of this community now – and into the future.”
 
The only apparent improvement Maria is talking about is keeping her job and promotion prospects alive for the future. Why couldn’t she be honest instead of mimicking Michelle Lensink? The answer is that she’d be out on her ass if she expressed an honest professional opinion.
 
What the redevelopment really means is removal of tenants’ back yards, houses closer together and any green areas communal and visible from all directions like a prison exercise yard. And the breakup of neighbourhood affinity groups that have taken decades to form.
 
And where is the Doctor? Dr Clark from ShelterSA has voiced very little criticism of the redevelopment. Progress is not always progress.

Gary alive and well

From the anonymous contact page
 
Gary Gaza strode over to the couple of bush gals calmly sitting across from McStooges on Hindley Street.

Gary gracefully and respectfully bent over, bowed and presented the bushy twins with a little bag of McFood which the bush gals appreciated.

Twas a touching moment of generosity and kindness, despite the bag being McStooge food.

Hope the bush gals do not end up, as many others, hooked up to dialysis machines, and other contraptions of extreme medical remediation, because of unhealthy "Super Size Me" Golden Arches McHappy type food along with Stooge booze.
 
The Hutt Street Centre say they no longer provide breakfast or lunch except to homeless, motel accommodation people and those doing the Aged City Living program. They refused breakfast to Big Ron who lives in a retirement joint, but offered breakfast for a total stranger who lives in a house.

Food Barn man kicked out of sports club
 
The Food barn man offered to take a new friend to his sports club at a Port Adelaide hotel. I will be vague to protect identities and call the Food Barn man, Perv, and the friend, Jack.
 
Perv is the old man who talked incessantly about his sexual exploits at the Food Barn lunches ― before the joint shut down. He seems a decent fellow except for the dirty talk. He points to druggie women at free food joints and makes up dirty stories about them.
 
Anyway, Perv and Jack were at the sports area of a pub with other men and women. But Perv kept holding up the play by sexting on his phone, then loudly telling everyone that he’s brought a woman around to accept that dirty sex was okay. The women were creeped out and the men told Jack and Perv to get out and not come back.
 
They were in Perv’s car and on the way back to Elizabeth Perv kept stopping every kilometre to read and send sexts to women. He then turned off the main road and into an unlit industrial area near Pennington while talking more aggressively about dirty sex.
 
Jack was getting nervous as he’d been seriously sexually abused as a child and had never recovered. The industrial area was also where his ex-missus had operated a brothel. Jack just yelled for Perv to keep driving to Elizabeth and then let him out.
 
The next day he tried to discuss with Perv that all that filthy talk might indicate something wrong with himself. Perv saw nothing unusual about his behaviour and the two men are no longer on speaking terms.

(above) Katie Burt collecting free food via the Port Adelaide Enfield Council. She cooks and delivers it to a homeless man who has been living in a park for the past year. However, she's been out-of-action recently after being king hit by a female thug near Semaphore. (Adelaide Homeless Journal January 2021).

Why are Salvation Army officers so fat?
 
“Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The once great Ingle Farm Corps is reportedly on the ropes despite the heroic efforts of Nathan Casey and his Hillbank crowd.
 
Nathan was allegedly educated at Marryatville High School along with the wonderful Natalie Tate who along with Andrew Short helped destroy Norwood Salvo Corps.
 
Well, that’s the story. No doubt Natalie has suffered greatly at seeing the Norwood Corps effectively dismantled and the remaining soldiers given lunch and told to piss off. She’s been putting on the beef, perhaps a sign of the stress of holding together a Corps that was haemorrhaging active members. It’s a sign across the Salvos across Australia. Their message is not getting through. Hillbank-style Adelaide churches have Sunday services with 600 participants while some Salvo Corps get little more than a dozen. Some soldiers give their own joints a miss on Sundays and go to Lifepoint, Victory or one of the many other Hillbank-style churches.
 
Meanwhile, at Ingle Farm Corps the free food day each month has faltered despite Nathan Casey’s last-ditch efforts to revive the Corps. Senior officers are watching him carefully, hoping he is the one to discover the key to rejuvenation.
 
Previous Corps officer, Majors David and Kylie Collinson have new appointments in Sydney. David is at Divisional Headquarters while Kylie is officer-in-charge at Paramatta Corps. They’d left Ingle Farm some time ago, but were biding their time until an appropriate appointment came up. The current officer, Major Gluyas, is rumoured to be thinking of hoofing it to Melbourne.  
 
The Ingle Farm songsters and band are rumoured to have fled the Hillsong crowd and lodged themselves at Northeast Salvos, an amalgamation of Oakden and Campbelltown Corps plus refugee soldiers from Norwood.
 
But Major Beeson will save the day providing he can get his mind off cheesecake and doesn’t have a heart attack from his weight. And that is the problem with so many officers: they are fat.
 
Why are they fat? Are they depressed? Is it the stress of inspiring people to sacrifice their time to help others when the officers must question whether they themselves are getting paid too much? Or that the organisation is top heavy and lumbered with so much legalities, conferences and administration that they are too exhausted to inspire others. It must be terrible to see the Corps congregations dissipating in numbers and hope.

One Life church don’t understand the homeless condition

You can’t blame them. Even we who have lived outside for years don’t understand it. It changes a person.
 
One Voice in Western Australia donated shower trucks across Australia. South Australia got one, but the truck sits idle month-after-month outside One Life Church at Ormsby Street, Parafield.
 
One Life don’t have enough staff to keep the shower van operating all day, every day. And the conditions they put on its use by others is impractical. Fill the diesel tank after use, replace empty gas cylinders for the hot water heater, refill the water tank, provide staff who submit to the induction process, clean the vehicle, pick up the vehicle at Parafield then return it. And maybe wash the towels. All this for a couple of hours of not-hot-enough-water for two or three clients.
 
Oh, yes, and limit showers to four-minutes with fifteen-minutes in the cubicle. Are they serious? A homeless person carrying bags and not having washed for a week may need an hour inside with lots of water use. These four and fifteen minute rules are a recipe for uselessness. They’re more suitable for office workers jogging to work and then having a quick shower.
 
The truck should be semi-permanently parked at a location where it is most used such as Anglicare in Elizabeth or St Luke’s at Whitmore Square. And reserved for one or two days a week, all day, then transported to another required location then left there until its next appointment. This would minimise driving and setting up times.
 
Regularity of service and location are most important aspects as many homeless people are illiterate, have trouble finding locations, can’t keep up with changing times or feel too frightened to go to new locations.
 
And we become extra fragile and withdrawn when living outside. Referring someone to a website is pure stupidity. One Life should copy the service arrangements of Fred’s Van across Australia. They are reliable, rarely change locations and have a standard formula of service that doesn’t confuse homeless people.
 
And those pissy little LPG tanks should be replaced with 45-litre tanks with an established delivery and installation plan. One Life also need a semi-permanent operator who knows the procedures of its operation. There are heaps of quality retirees and work-for-the-dole people who could do this.
 
But if they have two-hour schedules at locations, arrive late and have trouble turning on the hot water then they’re wasting everyone’s time. Get real.

But, anyway, like Orange Sky Laundry I would never have used the shower van when I was homeless for all those years as it turns a homeless person into a spectacle at a time when the last thing you want is to be on display.

No sympathy for Housing Trust employees or management

From the anonymous contact page
 
Referring back to what Phisam wrote in 5 January 2021 post: "Just read your post about the housing workers, I think it's a bit stiff to put their names in there for everyone to see. They're just trying to do their jobs, the trust was good to me and helped me get a place a few years back. I feel for them, they try to help but haven't always got the money or the houses to make a difference."

Ha Ha. HSA SAHA (Housing SA, South Australian Housing Authority) is leaning towards the Development Syndicate trying to close down public housing and get it sold off to Developers who can then sell the MULTI TEN MILLION DOLLAR COMPLEXES to Wealthy Overseas Investors.

HSA SAHA crooks and double-dealing operators who cater to the prison mob and psych ward tenants never get our sympathy.

(above) The generous staff of Aldi Munno Para used their Christmas bonus to buy fresh food for clients of Cos We Care in the city. It was good stuff, nothing from Foodbank. Aldi staff even went there and met the underclass crowd. (Adelaide Homeless Journal January 2021).

Can you believe ABC Radio Adelaide’s claim that a one-dollar donation provides two meals from Foodbank?

A church free food supplier wondered how Foodbank could supply such rotting vegetables when they got them from the same source as him.
 
That wasn’t 100% accurate. Foodbank get a small amount of their vegetables from the growers out at Virginia, but most comes from the Pooraka growers’ markets and supermarket waste.
 
Yet how does Foodbank turn nearly everything it touches into rotting mush? Well, they don’t always. They give the better produce to people buying their stale donated groceries from stores like the Bowden-Brompton mission in Gibson Street, Bowden, Anglicare at Elizabeth or Baptist Care near Whitmore Square. If you buy stale donated groceries they give you half-decent vegetables for free.
 
But the range of conditionally-free vegetables at Foodbank stores are nothing as extensive or as high quality as the independent church worker supplies and who picks up directly from the growers. Why is this?
 
The unpaid church worker mentioned above says growers on the blocks at Virginia told him they’d phoned Foodbank to say they had tonnes of surplus fresh tomatoes and other produce. But Foodbank won’t pick it up; they want it delivered, presumably to Edwardstown. This is despite Foodbank trucks making regular deliveries to Adelaide’s northern suburbs.
 
The church man can’t collect it all in his personal car so tonnes are ploughed back into the soil every week.
 
Then we come to Ali Clark and Spence Denny on ABC Radio Adelaide spruiking for donations to Foodbank. They say a one-dollar donation will provide two meals for hungry families.
 
So, how many meals are in a 15kg bag of stinking rotting Foodbank vegetables and two loaves of five-day-old bread stored in a hot room? Most gets thrown into the rubbish or compost at the recipients’ homes or camps because it isn’t fit for human consumption. The workers handing it out are embarrassed and avoid eye contact.
 
But the ABC and Foodbank propaganda machines relentlessly grind away at the public mind creating the illusion of Foodbank dishing out health and kindness. It’s propaganda is to trick the population from understanding the true reality on the street. And Clark and Denny are little more than two ignorant hacks mouthing whatever their employer tells them to say.

No Hopes Cafe

Re: No hope cafe in pedofileville
From Dunno Don’t Care

A bit hard on Rebecca you say. You should of seen her head spin around and look at Me after she did what she did. I've seen a few rubber necks in my time, but hers was on a turbo charged swivel.

Don't you f****** touch me she yelled at the top of her voice, twice. She set him up because he complained about what goes on there.
 
What they do so their terrorist supporting knitting team can have a free feed in peace. Look up the program that run their knitting jumpers for Syrian kids. The orginazation that transports those jumpers in Syria through Turkey. They go in with bombs and jihadist soldiers for isis, they go to isis controlled areas. you couldn't make this shit up.
 
There's a story of a mental patient whose hospital was over run by isis, for 6 years she was trapped in an isis controlled area, where she was chained to bed and starved. Sounds like Ann Marie Smith doesn't it? Has the penny dropped yet?

Birds of the same feather flock together.

A church in Norwood, pilfering tax payers money, that supplies clothes to terrorists. A church with a history of pedofiles in a suburb with the darkest of all histories concerning the pedofile elite.

He didn't touch her, she was getting revenge because one of us dared speak up. Because a few people, including my self heard his complaint about denial of service, of thier passive aggression. The clothing suppliers for the Islamic terrorists heard his Complaint , his accusation they were the kkk. His accusation was wrong, because we both know its not the color of your skin, as why they did it. It's actually much worse than the kkk.

She should be in gaol for what she did. But that would be an insult and offensive to those already in gaol. Perhaps the same level of brutality isis ditched out to christians in Syria is more appropriate…

"inferior service models than the old systems"?????
 
Housing Trust tenant
5 January 2021

The N.D.I.S. and My Aged Care service models are inferior to the old system

You hear stories of disabled and old people getting huge annual funding packages from the National Disability Insurance Scheme and My Aged Care. Many get up to $100,000 a year. Some individuals get $750,000 each year. And this is the problem.
 
The funding is too high so it is limited to a lower number of individuals than previously helped. This means a long waiting list so someone near death and needing relatively little assistance doesn’t get it. And some actually die waiting for it when they could have gotten assistance under the old system. 
 
This can mean that a disabled or old person is effectively housebound because they can’t get a government-supplied ramp. But if they live long enough they’ll get all kinds of junk services they don’t want.
 
For example, an 88-year-old woman can’t get into a high-support unit that is vacant due to a waiting list for assessments with My Aged Care. She has terminal cancer and cannot cook her own food or properly take care of herself.
 
The My Aged Care bureaucrats keep making estimates for an assessment to determine her eligibility then keep extending them further into the future. The high-support unit meanwhile can’t stay empty forever and may be filled by the time My Aged Care makes a positive assessment and the old girl may end up on the high-support waiting list.
 
Previously, the high-support joint would have admitted her with a doctor’s letter and she’d now be a resident, but because access to nearly all aged care services depends on the okay from My Aged Care, there is a bottleneck in approvals.
 
With the old system many old people got a little bit of help, but with this new system of My Aged Care a smaller number get lots and the rest get nearly nothing.
 
And the 88-year-old is in a diabolical health situation. The cancer is making her visibly frailer by the day and she is in constant pain. And yet the bed in the high-support unit remains empty, but won’t be forever.

Who king hit Katie and why? I also attend St Bede’s and while I don't know the girl well I can see she has a kind heart and doesn't look like much of a fighter.

​Rumor has it she was king hit on New Years Day so we may not be seeing her around for a few weeks. I am not sure what damage has been done but it was reported to me she went to hospital. The reason I avoid going to licensed venues as some people can not handle their alcohol / anger.

Sharon can’t take any more
 
Housing Trust managers rarely provide their full names these days. Too much risk of being trolled on the internet. Sharon is one of them; she works out of Port Adelaide Housing Trust office, near the criminal section of Unity Housing.
 
This Sharon isn’t what you would call astute. She thought Semaphore Park was a beautiful area as she’d driven through it many times though rarely stopped.
 
Her fascination for the suburb diminished when she met Megaphone Man. He’d intellectually go to the brink of decency when describing the dysfunctional perverts and drug dealers in the neighbourhood, which confronted her belief that Semaphore Park was a beautiful place.
 
She won’t speak to him anymore. She especially doesn’t want to listen to him. Sharon has never been the full quid and he might push her over the edge. And she hates all the trouble caused by the megaphone.
 
Megaphone Man has been assigned to a social worker named Rena at Croydon Housing Trust office. She backs the druggies against Megaphone Man, she being too ignorant to understand the situation. Of course, the junkies and dealers are vulnerable disadvantaged people. And if she didn’t back them, the cartel might come looking for her.
 
Meanwhile, the glazier has replaced Megaphone Man’s front window with a thicker glass. And each time the druggies smash it, he’ll put in a thicker grade. Talk about milking the job. He should pay the druggies a commission.
 
Police have questioned Julie Ann Mann. She’s already on numerous charges for similar offences. She is attracted to glass. Her next court appearance is in February. Julie spends most of her life with a court case pending. “She’s hanging on by strings,” Megaphone Man commented.
 
The morning was eerily quiet after the window smashing. No one wanted to incur Megaphone Man’s wrath. The familiar sound of feet crunching over smashed beer bottles was missing. Ah, the joy of living in Semaphore Park. Living the Housing Trust dream. At least, Sharon’s dream.

Underclass purged from Hopes Café, Clayton Uniting Church at Norwood

“It was a morning before Covid
When life was the old normal.
Not masks around and the flu still existed.
The location was no hope cafe in paedophile ville (Norwood)

“As usual I waited 20 minutes for my meal and my coffee was cold, Rebecca had done her usual took up a whole table to herself when there was people standing with nowhere to sit, and she was fluttering around like a wrinkled bloated butterfly.

“I was sitting with these lively old laddies knitting jumpers for Syrians, well so they thought, and later they would learn the truth thanks to Rebecca

“This black guy went up to Rebecca and said he has been waiting half hour for his food, people have come after him, been served their food, ate it and left. Rebecca denied it but it was true. They had been doing the same to me for awhile. He went and sat down after accusing no hope cafe of being the KKK. Those of us who know Adelaide’s real story know that many an elite paedophile was married in or used that church.

“He went and sat down across the room, against a wall, back to the wall, arms down, by his side. Rebecca went over to him, stood about 10 centimetres in front of him, leaned over, invading his personal space and then jumped back and yelled

“Don't you ******* touch me. Then repeated it, so everybody heard. But he didn't touch her, I was watching, I could see his arms and hands, the way he was against the wall and how she invaded his personal space. She's another me-too like to target men who talk truth. The soup kitchen scene full of ‘em.

“She yelled for the bald pot belly guy who is in anti-poverty network and anti us…then a few others guys turned up and black guy had to leave, hungry. He had been set up by a fat monster. Because he complained about what we all they are like, stuck up toffs rorting the system.

“The old ladies knitting said it must have been drugs, poor Rebecca. So I told them to do some study about the organization you're supply your knitting to. They are supplying ISIS in Syria, not the gov, but ISIS. Your stuff is going to terrorists, you're supporting terrorists. The one I had been chatting to, who knew I was smart, she knew it was truth. By the energy it came with.

“Ann Marie Smith didn't live too far away, she was rotting in her own shit, soon to die stuck in a chair while integrity care pilfered her assets and the tax payer. Much like Rebecca did when she got that grant to do up no hope cafe. When they invited all the ferals in, while the grant was being delivered and reported on. When all done and dusted chased them away so her terrorist supporting knitting team could get free food.”

Background to the
​Elizabeth East Salvo fire

It’s been a few years since the sorting shed was burnt to the ground. It was near the time when the Playford Salvos brought over Christians from Africa to rejuvenate the Corps. But the African experiment was a real fizzer when the middle-class black folk took one look at the joint and its ideology then ran for the exit door. It was a bad investment for the Salvos, but a winner for the sponsored immigrants. After pissing off from the Salvos they started a church of their own in the Elizabeth Grove Uniting Church building. The Uniting crowd had lost their faith and numbers, anyway, and the black folk gave the joint a bit of life.
 
What started the sponsorship was the Salvation Army Major then in charge had had a gutful of Elizabeth white folk. They couldn’t be evangelised. They didn’t believe the Salvo morality tales and that Jesus was their saviour. Or, maybe they did, but couldn’t stand the Salvos.
 
The trouble started when the Major indirectly kicked out many of the old people from the church. They gave nothing and weren’t worth any investment. He told this to their faces during a service. And you couldn’t blame him: The Salvation Army is there to provide service to a broken world, not to pander for lazy Salvos turning up every Sunday for tea and biscuits. But this utilitarianism cause much bitterness and someone burnt the big sorting shed out back.
 
Others will have different recollections, but it is this atmosphere that current mature-age cadets Fiona and Dale Allan faced when they arrived in 2017 from Melbourne. A baptism of fire. Being a missionary in Africa would be easy compared to Elizabeth East. Yeah, the lot of the senior Majors facing cushy retirements is a lot different from a lower pay scale couple being dumped in the belly of the beast.

True grit from the street
 
From the anonymous contact page

Is covid a con? Well, let's go back to February as the panic set in about the China virus. Aged care abuses were all the rage, four cut corners did an expose and everyone was calling for Scotty from marketing's head over reports in to the death and suffering, he was sitting on for years. They were warning of catastrophe. They said staff were under trained and abusive, people dying from the use of psych drugs to cover up the neglect. When you treat people like shit, especially old people, they tell you to f*** off. So they got drugged. Drugged with deadly drugs.

The soup kitchen scene was thriving. Just about every one of them went missing in action before the government acted in mid march.

80 percent the deaths in Australia have been in aged care homes. Can anyone name one drug addict on the street whose immune system is [damaged] that died of covid. Just one? We all know plenty. There was a group of American tourist roaming around the cbd for days, had been on the ruby Princess. They all tested positive. I actually walked passed them one morning on the way to the pentecostal pirates of turtle hurtle square. I only went there because one of the pentacostal Pirate bitches wanted to bang me. She was worth banging too and her husband knew it. She wanted to wank my plank.

These tourists used buses, toilets, pressed buttons at traffic lights.. Along with few hundred homeless and a few hundred more soup kitchen crowd that weekend. They sat on benches by the Sunday feed in that flash church at the back of flinders. Not one immune system compromised poor hygienic homeless or semi homeless poor person caught covid.

But the soup Kitchens abandoned ship. Run for the hills. Melanie Tate [Puddle Jumpers] and a few of the St Vinnies crew kept going.
 
Even the hari kari wanna be christianers hid in thier Kilburn meat free cave. Funny thing was, there food the best preventative measure there is. They served it outdoors with plenty of room to social distance and maintain hygiene. And not spend a cent more or even need any more volunteers. The lesson from this no matter how close you are to a fat budda and how vegan you are, paranoia still is a problem for you

Even before snotty fat scotty from marketing shut everything down, anglicare and uniting care shut thier doors. Salvoes were not quite so bad. The Hanson Road branch use to bangin drug addicts in appointments had a bit more resiliance. Bin divers will tell you thier bins have alot of used condoms in them. That…from inside thier building. I know it's a hard thing to accept, but the truth is always deeply penetrative. Well, ring up thier call center, thier on hold music is tantric. Feel the love vibrate through your phone.

Nannas apple crumble pie brain kitchen May have a slight problem, before they shut down thier queertown, sorry queen's Town operation for chrissy, they refused entry to people without masks. The right yes there's one left lawyer apparently planning to take port adelaide Council to task over this. You just can't do that.

No homeless,. Nobody in the service industry actually got covid, anywhere in Australia. Still they f*** us around. Because they can…

The pcr test has it written on the insert this is not a diagnostic tool for covid. Because nobody has isolated this virus yet and the makers of this test, developed when the man made aids con was on, say you can pretty well set it to find anything, including a common cold you Might have had 40 years ago. Which is what they're finding.

And we starved. And we got abandoned. Did you guys notice all the soup kitchen bludgers who got free hotel rooms and double dole still caused the same problems at the places that stayed open?

And we fought with each other. A sniffle got you more eyes than walking into Hindley Street pig pen saying cops are pedofile protectors. Well that station was. In the days dicklover Don raided the homeless scene for some fresh ****. They use to sleep under the railway platforms back then. If they weren't running drugs for polites they were running…in the public toilets…

The peppers pizza bar gate thing is another. A couple Of businesses used the same bins down the lane,. Including the convienance store that every day water dept and cfs headquarters used. There was no infection control at these bins. Everyone's rubbish was piled in without care, Masks clothes food gloves, everything. And there was bin divers. Even homeless sleeping behind them. If covid wasn't a con, this wouldn't of happened. There the most important phone exchange next door, who employees use the store, the advertiser journalists use the store. The store that used the same bins peppers pizza Gate used. There was no infection control.

What did wanna be Eva braun Nicole spurrier say about this being a new nasty strain. What about what happened to the Woodville pizza bar hey. Go to topham Mall and look at all the fat old men and women who run the cfs. The covid scare was in a heatwave as well. Those workers at the convienince store, using peppers bins, should of been super spreaders. Gays from the advertiser and banks would loiter around the toilets at top ham mall…then go get a feed at the convienince store and an after…ciggy. Covid could of decimated our judges and politicians.

In America, the only excess deaths compared to 2019 were people in aged care homes. It's easy to look up. In England right now, people are breaking into empty hospitals and filming it, pigs are raiding them, banning them from going near hospitals.

Now

The vaccine is not Medical technology. The one bill Gates says we need. The Russian one is Based on 50 years of vaccine research. But ours is based on military science developed for soldiers bodies to accept nuero implants. That military branch called DARPA pretty much invented the Internet and worked with Bill Gates.
 
Bill Gates killing millions in Africa and Asia with vaccine experiments. The same bill Gates who says we're overpopulated. The same bill Gates who fooled the World with a virus scare, aka the milinial bug. The same bill Gates who created computer viruses to infect our computers and sold us the cure. And in that cure was software that recorded everything you did. The same bill Gates who wants every inch of the earth under satellite video survaliance the same bill Gates who wants a cashless society, by using a chip in our hands that hold all our details.

Our goverments are acting on his instructions. He's not a doctor or a scientist. Our goverments say they're taking experts advice. He's not an expert.

DARPA are into robots as well. If you remember terminator movies., well the company in the second one, was meant to be DARPA. They were the guys in the first movie who retrieved the hand and neuro implant at the end and covered it up. The director now works with DARPA and the Mars Rover. DARPA made these little robot mosquitos that can kill.

Don't worry about housing much longer. If you survive bill gates shot, there will be plenty of empty houses from the people who didn't survive. The bill gates shot creating havok on the few tested so far, people who don't have the health issues of say the ferals in Elizabeth and Salisbury or taoeroo or semaphore Park or Christies beach or Kilburn or Mansfield Park. When they get the shot it will be bedlam. They're already immune sytem compromised. And mentally challanged.

If you got any spare coin, invest in companies that make or transport body bags or those places you get turned into ashes. You'll be able to predict when it comes by moves on the stock Market…

Am I John Connor you ask.....well.i do take note everyrime I hear a Harley, I don't trust pigs. . But my mums an ugly bitch. A crazy bitch but not hot like Sarah.. My dad was a soldier.

What I do know, the brother of jesus is now a spirit guide of mine. We were brothers, he the accepted one, and I the banished one. and the shrink jumped off the roof because he realised he wasn't crazy. He was the brother of jesus.

On the Street
 
A soup kitchen man said the insecticide used on grains and vegetables stayed active for 100 years. “It never dies,” he said. But he frequently fantasises about impending horror, but one that isn’t fantasy is that he is dying. Impending death can be a lonely experience.

A traveller said a few years ago he discovered the Salvation Army graveyard at Maroochydore. He said that was where they send Majors who worked until retirement age. He said there were fifty Majors in the nursing home there.
 
*
 
An Orange Sky Laundry volunteer said they’re thinking of bringing in the shower truck to Fred’s Van at Elizabeth. “This is good news,” I told a veteran homeless man. “Oh, yeah,” he replied, then explained he’d heard many welfare workers talk about plans that never eventuated.
 
*
 
The street crowd said the Playford Community Fund Christmas hampers were smaller than last year and that the “Salvo’s hampers not as good as last year.”
 
Meanwhile, those boxes stored in the Food Barn were described as Christmas hampers for the select crowd and not for regular clients unless they’d signed up to the Eternal Shame File.
 
Yet a social worker who is now a client elsewhere says most of the “non-profits” are drowning in food vouchers and cash cards.

The woman in her 70’s with multiple boyfriends is learning to use a computer so she can use Tindr to upgrade her boyfriends. Each must have a car and house.
 
One of her current boyfriends says she gets distracted from her Tindr lessons by food so he is taking her to lots of free food vans. You can see him going back and forth to the car with meat pies, sandwiches and sugary drinks.

Piano Player Wayne says he’s lost 100kgs, the elephant in the room no longer him, but Coca Cola.
 
He says it’s easier for him to drag himself from bed to his wheelchair and shower chair now that he isn’t lugging that extra weight.

Most soup kitchen and free food venue clients appear to rorting the system. That’s what we say about each other. But after years of watching and listening and talking to most clients, I’ve discovered that each person has a valid reason. Many are dying from terminal illnesses; others give away most of what they collect; some are destitute and living in cars, some are paying off huge debts rather than declaring bankruptcy; others are crushed by marriage failures; many are illiterate, mentally disabled or have suffered an acquired brain injury and can’t negotiate society; some were sexually assaulted as children and never recovered; others are drug addicts: victims rather than perpetrators; others are hoarders. Another class are New Zealand homeless people who don’t qualify for the dole in Australia; Finally, some clients are using the free food and prescription medicine services to improve their lives, even to buy their own houses.

Most can collectors aren’t crazy
 
The middle-aged man from Fiji can’t do well enough on the dole so he collects cans from rubbish bins. He drives a car, that’s the problem. But sometimes he walks long distances collecting cans or to soup kitchens. He doesn’t appear to drink alcohol, use drugs or smoke tobacco.
 
The older women lost her house. She hasn’t explained the reason and none have asked. We learn discretion in the underclass culture. In old age she secured two expensive mortgages to buy another house in a low-cost suburb. The mortgage payments take nearly all her pension. She collects cans and food from free food venues. Some accuse her of being greedy, but she also drives around Elizabeth delivering the food without cost to those who can’t get out of their homes.
 
The older man who collects cans owned a house near Lifepoint church at Modbury. He lost the house during his divorce then found himself homeless and an unemployed aged beggar. He rents a house at an exorbitant cost and takes care of a women who appears to be disabled. He doesn’t use drugs or appear to even smoke or drink alcohol.

(above) Fred's Van volunteers gave away small bags of food after their last Sunday lunch of the year. It was all good stuff, nothing rotten or old. Volunteers sometimes pay for it from their own money. (Adelaide Homeless Journal December 2020).

Kidman Park Salvo Store manager losing his cool

He’s been losing his cool with customers for quite some time. Earlier this month he followed a woman into the carpark then shouted at her for parking her car in the wrong area.
 
Other customers and volunteers tread warily around him. Perhaps the virus lockdown and competition with four other stores in close proximity have made him go a little screwy.
 
It has been questioned whether his attitude has spawned the extreme amounts of garbage dumped outside the store last year.
 
The Southern Area manager was thinking of giving him the boot, but so many area managers have been biting the dust recently that she’s biding her time.

Quiet at Fred’s Van Kilburn
​Christmas breakup

We thought it would be a madhouse. There were about 54 seats instead of the usual 80. How would everyone fit in? They wouldn’t. Admission was by preregistration.
 
While we waited, Rails, 78, argued with a fat woman about Covid. Rails said it was a hoax while the other woman said it was deadly. She got angry. The pro-Covid people usually get angry.
 
I told them Paul McCartney died in 1966 and that he’d been replaced by a look-alike who then disappeared from his other identity because he couldn’t be two people at once.
 
Another woman talked about a child molester getting free despite saying he’d kill the child he’d raped now an adult. A fourth woman said she also knew a man who served six-years in jail for child molesting despite his children apologising to him later saying their mother had forced them to lie. Now the man has cancer. “What was his life for?” she asked.
 
A few turned up without having registered. This included Cambodian Jenny. No problem. Hardly forty of us arrived. Jenny was admitted. But like all the free food joints, half the regulars have disappeared.
 
There were stacks of volunteers. Half were Asians who ignored us. They packed bags. Maybe management said they weren’t allowed to talk to us.
 
Orange Sky were there. Rudi and the regulars weren’t there except Michelle who appeared as if she’d been crying. She left early. She’s served us for ten years.
 
The food was from the wine centre with white table cloths and served by professional waiters. They were polite except for a junior cook who made impolite gestures behind the back of a fat man who thanked them for the meal.
 
One diner who eats a plate of food in three minutes said, “This is shit,” because the courses were 25 minutes apart. She didn’t understand the lengthy spacing was a sign of luxury rather than the usual expectation that we eat like desperate animals then piss off.
 
There were so few guests that nearly everyone got two takeaway bags. The quality was better than usual and little of that usually rotten stuff from Oz Harvest. There was frantic trading and giving and taking as people unloaded what they didn’t want from the bags. Nothing was wasted.
 
There was a door prize hamper won by an Indian man who seemed not of our crowd. Not because he was Indian ― our criteria is whether you are street or not ― but because he and his wife seemed so middle-class cosmopolitan. The Africans were outside drunk and yelling our way, but okay.

What the anti-consumerist, under-employed, over Covid-19 disenfranchised persons like me got up too......

I spent most of the day trying to get some more of my assignment completed (I am studying a course online) and then later on in the afternoon, I decided to drive up to the Hallet wind turbine farm with my dog Wendy and watch the sun go down. When we got there, there were already seven other cars/vans lined up and they too were obviously there for the same thing. Some people sat in their cars, whilst others got out or were sitting in foldable chairs, outside their camper vans.
 
It was a truly beautiful site with the turbines silently turning and the sun setting. I love the windfarm. I think its beautiful and serene and I park close and I never get any ill-effects?
 
After the sun went down, I cranked up the Citroen (aka the Beast) and Wendy and I drove back home. Later on the evening, I took Wendy and four of my cats and we walked to the oval around the corner and we walked around the oval and around the back of the primary school, with the cats following behind and jumping and playing and carrying on.
 
Then I sat down on the steps outside the community center and ate cheese and pickle sandwiches and drank cold tea. (Which I shared with a cheeky magpie that flew down from a tree, and didn't seem too worried about my cats (I think he could look after himself) Once the feast was finished, we got up and walked home past the old church and hall, (my cats love running through the Church garden at night, crossed the road, and went back inside and waited for 2021 to appear (which of course it did)

Fred’s Van Elizabeth Christmas
​break-up meal

All the talk of having to register came to nothing. Cambodian Jenny phoned numerous times and was told it was booked out so she and her daughter didn’t come. The only registration process was for children to give their names and age the week before so they could collect appropriate presents. One boy was so happy getting a watch. He said he’d learn to tell the time. A 17-year-old pretended to be a child, but his alibi collapsed when volunteers saw him drive in. He still got a gift.
 
The children reflected their parents’ moods. Those with angry bitter parents were angry and screaming. Others expressed happiness at every idea or encounter and this reflected their parents.
 
The Old Guy staggered into the courtyard on his bad ankles. He yelled at someone who suggested he was German. He said he was English. He always lies. He spoke to The Magnificent Marten who is a master of diplomacy except for his extreme stubbornness.
 
Stavros and a few other homeless druggies were there along with Tim’s entourage. There were about 75 of us including 30 inside the socially distanced café.
 
Some diners pried open the locked St Vinnies rubbish skip containing donating items the Op Shop people had thrown away. Mr Rock Solid was outraged when he found a copy of Bon Jovi’s biography amongst the rubbish.
 
The first guest inside the dining room was a police officer’s good-natured father who chose drugs instead of the law and spends time in the slammer. The most reclusive was Mathew wearing long clothing and a hood. He turned away and stayed hidden amongst the cars. The Virus Lady and two St Vinnies women took every dish available to him and he soon left. He is the icon of Fred’s Van: reclusive, polite, retreating.
 
The meal included huge plates of prawns that came in a plastic bucket marked OLSH (Our Lady of The Sacred Heart) Catholic girls school. And chicken, ham, silverside, rice, Coleslaw, boiled eggs, ice-cream and chopped fruit, soft drinks, orange juice and water served at the tables.
 
What made it nice was the element of kindness. The women who provide the service week after week without pay are generally kind despite themselves often suffering from problems unknown to us. When it was all over the old Scottish volunteer looked as if she needed to be carted out on a stretcher.

Salisbury Fred’s Van Christmas
​break-up meal

The magnificent Marten arrived in his Hi-Vis finery along with a bright yellow P95 face mask. His head was covered with a bicycle helmet festooned with 15 upright flexible bands to stop attacks from Magpies. His pink glasses included a white plastic strip covering his nose. He weaved in and out, jumped back and forth in conversation in case anyone approached closer than 1.5 metres.
 
There were three or four druggies there plus at least two homeless men and the rest of us were old and sick including the Old Guy who is 82 and haywire after being shot in Europe. No one was normal except perhaps the Magnificent Marten with his inquisitive high-I.Q. mind. The Virus Lady wore a mask. No one blamed her for that.
 
The meal included ham, chicken, not chicken patties, sausages, bread, salad (not from Foobank), Coleslaw, roast potatoes, croutons, fresh buns and other stuff. The meat came in from Maranello pizza restaurant on the corner of John Street across the road from the Salisbury railway station. Dessert was Pavlova, ice-cream, biscuits, lollies, chopped fruit, cake and crackers.
 
A man said he’d stopped driving after losing his license three times. He said the government wants him to install a $4000 breath-testing machine in his car before he can drive again. A woman next to him who works in a vegetable factory said she’d spent $4000 for one in her son’s car. He’s a no-hoper and she picks up the pieces.
 
The Orange Sky crowd came in and wished us the best and said they’d be back next year.
 
A man said he’d been in Adelaide for two years and hadn’t made any friends. He sat alone with his sister at the back table.
 
Staff were generous with their time and didn’t rush us out the door.
 
Fred’s Van Salisbury will reopen on Sunday 10 January 2021.

6:00pm Sunday. The meal is served inside the hall. The quality is excellent with much of it baked at the volunteers' homes, but the actual session is too rushed. Dirty toilets. Not too much fighting between rival gangs, but old people frequently accusing each other of being greedy.
Free. No I.D. required. No data entry into the Eternal Shame File, but huge government cameras in the foyer and dining room. Orange Sky Laundry returning. Takeaway bags much improved.

No Leon Byner is refreshing

“Graham Gooding's on 5AA radio, a refreshing (though temporary) relief from Motor Mouth "I can fix that problem, just ring my mate, so and so" Leon Byner.

“It has been nice listening to Graham Gooding's on 5AA talk back each morning, instead of Leon (Save the World) Byner, who is currently on a Christmas/New year break. Graham doesn't spend the entire show directing people to useless entities such as the Water and Electricity Ombudsman, that ageing Bimbo that works for the NBN, or the Department for Consumer Affairs (headed by Leon's long time BBF's Sandro Canale and Demi Soulio (who are both grossly overpaid and about as transparent, as your average mud puddle) Nor does he spruik the Adelaide City Council, or the Hutt Street Centre. (Both places with dubious reputations and where a national enquiry should be had, in regards their spending practices.....) Unfortunately it won't last and "St. Leon" savior of the belligerent, angry "well to do talk back listening pensioner, will be back in the hot-seat in the new year.

“Just a quick comment as well made by another reader about "Boozy Bob"? Are we talking here about Bob Francis? If we are, he isn't boozy any longer, he is now just dead? He died like four years ago? (As far as I can remember?) Does anyone know any differently?

“(Frankly, I like Bob a lot better now he is deceased. It seems death has made him a lot more tolerable.)”

Welcome to the World of Cliffhangers
From the anonymous contact page
​
"A cliffhanger" ... "is a plot device in fiction which features a main character in a precarious or difficult dilemma or confronted with a shocking revelation at the end of an episode of serialized fiction. A cliffhanger is hoped to incentivize the audience to return to see how the characters resolve the dilemma."

(Wickedpedia)

Almost every homeless person is a Cliffhanger, experiencing a fictional horror, often hanging by a thread above a pool of sharks, or being chased by a pack of wolves.

It seems almost to horrible to be true, thus the apparent total fiction of a very real event.

And Down Under in Australia and "Up Above" in North America, with some of the RICHEST ECONOMIES in the World, many many poor victims of economic collapse will soon wade about in an ocean of endless seething poverty, friendless in a desolate desert of barren NOTHING.

Welcome to the World of Cliffhangers...

Elizabeth Fred’s Van
 
Mr and Mrs Rock Solid pried the lid on the industrial rubbish bin back of the Op Shop and pulled out toys and DVD’s. Mr Solid got a varnished bamboo umbrella with a hole in it. He said St Vinnies should give it away rather than send it to landfill.
 
The alcohol demented blue-eyed white woman muttered about bludgers. The elderly homeless couple sat in their car. They appeared worse for wear this week before Christmas when most homeless services shut down for three weeks. Rabbit was there with a presentable druggie woman from the Avondale Housing Trust apartments.
 
Four older pink-faced women served up a dish similar to the paella made by Russel Wortley, M.P. at City Salvos in 2015, except these women didn’t burn it. There was an entre of saveloys on bread with a rationed squirt of sauce plus worthy non-meat option plus coffee, custard, mince pies, Coke. It was all good food and nothing from Foodbank.
 
The Serbian Old Guy was there telling people he was English despite speaking like a German. He said he’d never been right after working underground at Roxby uranium mine and being hit in the head with a nine-kilogram hunk of rock. A friend said his ankles were no good after he was shot in the old country.
 
The takeaway bags contained a small amount of good groceries. Nothing old or from Foodbank. Anil was late and missed out and I regret not giving him mine.
 
There were perhaps 35 of us there including two children for this somewhat melancholy lunch. You could see the sadness behind the forced joviality on their faces as they faced a three week shutdown of their social and networking circuits across Adelaide.
 
It was the last session for the year and it was difficult to express our appreciation to the volunteers’ for what are often for them stressful sessions with tormented and desperate people.

Just plain weird at Salisbury Ark
 
It was a total bitch session at the Lutheran Ark at Salisbury. Half a dozen women argued about who’d put whose name down on the food reservation list. Someone said Devoid and his wife were put down twice so they’d get twice as much. It was those who usually collect for friends elsewhere who were complaining. The Ark is a social meal having become a temporary hot food takeaway service, not a depot to collect relatives who have never been there. And no one was desperate except perhaps Mick of Mick and Denise. Other than them, the homeless crowd don't go to the Ark. 
 
Someone complained about Shuffles who is getting married to the guard at the Stamford virus hotel. He’d worked at Parabanks shopping centre when that psychopath used a knife to slice up that unfortunate woman cleaner. Shuffles is almost dead from old age, but has become like a virgin bride. She has spirit and that attracts most men to her.
 
Cambodian Jenny lifted her dress to her waist showing off her green underwear. The man with the high-pitched voice couldn’t understand why she’d done that in public. Shuffles had an idea.
 
It was a plain weird hour outside the church. The only good aspect was that for once I wasn’t the major fool. Too much competition. But for the church volunteers who cooked the food that they provided at their expense it was not a happy session.

Hutt Street Centre’s nasty Christmas cheer
 
The new regime’s influence permeates further into the culture of the Hutt Street Centre when on Christmas day staff “refused a long-standing client, now classified as tertiary homeless, Christmas lunch. He walked the streets of Adelaide for the rest of the day as he had no money and no where to go.” 
 
This comes from a reliable source and follows on from Big Ron, another long-standing client being refused breakfast a few days before Christmas. Ron is in his seventies and suffers cognitive impairment
 
Ironically, Hutt Street Centre has increased its budget yet reduced its services since Chris Burns was appointed as Chief Executive Officer. The money is flooding into staff salaries and the multi-million dollar building project, but reduced for food, showers, laundry and water for homeless people.
 
Bring back Ian Cox and that chiropractor. Bring back the Daughters of Charity. Bring back those old grumpy Catholic women. Get rid of Burns and the data miners.

St Bede’s Semaphore Christmas break-up lunch

It was like a Joe Biden Revival meeting minus the bribes. Anglicare ordered its volunteers to wear Black Lives Matter-style face masks. The thickly padded masks were fit for a polar expedition or to filter smoke from a torched building. At least one volunteer complained of being hot and uncomfortable. The masks created an us and them atmosphere.
 
But there was pleasant conversation before we entered the building. The retired male federal police officer said two people he suspected of stealing his cheque book complained that his cheques bounced. They’d robbed his van when he’d been homeless in the Semaphore South carpark and he’d been hauled off in an ambulance.
 
Red-haired Mark was absent. He was in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital after his second stroke. He is paralysed on one side and can barely speak. He’s worried about becoming homeless. No one has broken the news to him that he’s heading straight for a Care joint, maybe the one Bill has been resident for the past five months. Mark is hardly 50.
 
Damian has gained weight and his cheerful disposition. He was near death from starvation due to an intestinal illness. He died a few times in hospital then was revived, had more surgery and that didn’t work. But when all seemed lost he rose from the dead and is back with us. Everyone likes him.
 
Jack Kelso from Rotary was the only celebrity there. He arranges huge deliveries of 2-minute noodles from Rotary’s free deal with San Remo pasta. Rotary also supplied the pool and ping pong tables plus the commercial fridges. The three or four Anglicare employees and hard-pressed volunteers paid him little attention, but it wasn’t their fault. It was as if a heavy cloud was hanging over the place. A vibrant social atmosphere had been reduced by organisational decree.
 
It’s also been a feature of most free food venues that outside organisations and individuals no longer make guest appearances. An exception was the City Salvo’s DUO program meals. They had all kinds of strange volunteers from mosques, hospitals, universities and homeless joints. It was always interesting. But now there are so many limiting fake health requirements that make volunteering ― even pre-virus ― difficult.
 
Katie Burt was there with her joyful little daughter. Katie got a Port Adelaide citizen of the year award. She takes food and stuff to that man living in a park in Largs.
 
The meal was takeaway from a fish and chip shop with soft-drinks and an excellent cheesecake.
 
There were heaps of empty chairs. One table was empty. Another had just one diner, but that was because he was looking for a fight. The mood at the female retired police officer’s table was buoyant, but there was a feeling of gloom elsewhere in the room.
 
Jill Rivers has been transferred to a supervisory position in the emergency aid section of Anglicare. Some workers at the Magdalene Centre in the city are abusive to clients and the data-mining process is especially humiliating for those going there the first time. Jill is the perfect person to soften the process for first-time clients, but remain strict for old hands doing the rounds.  
 
Jayne is also leaving Semaphore. She and her husband have bought a property at Willunga and will operate a flower farm. She hopes to volunteer at the Anglicare joint at Christies Beach. She also has that high-quality sensitivity and generosity as Jill. Anglicare clients are lucky both these positive influencers are staying on board.

Why nobody should be raising money for the Hutt street Centre
The Night Talker

I was flabbergasted when I read about this Tarryn Brumfitt Chick, raised (in excess of $23,000) for the Hutt Street Centre. Clearly she has not visited this place recently, nor has she ever required their services, because if she had, she would not be doing something, so outrageously stupid!

Reasons why the Hutt Street Centre, shouldn't get any additional funds from anyone AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, FOR EVERYTHING THEY DO SPEND MONEY ON!

1) I can't for the love of me understand why anyone would speak positively of an agency, that keeps it's front door locked, 24/7. That's right, you can't walk into the main building, unless your invited in.....?? How is that for charity (and or lack of)

2) The main congregation area for "clients" within the building, is quite frankly disgusting. It's dirty, its run down and its depressing. It clearly has had zero money spent on it, in God knows how many years?

3) The yearly salary of the current and previous CEO's of this "supposed" not-for-profit" charity and its staff, belies the fact, its meant to be assisting the most disadvantaged. Much bragging and radio interviews ect and media events (such as walk a mile in my shoes, and bonds undies and singlets for the homeless) never actually end up, going to the homeless. Particularly irksome when you see Hutt Street Staff, driving around in a 70K 4x4, whilst spruking the general public to give them donations! (Go away you flapping Pariahs!)

4) The Hutt Street Centre made Robyn (the Junkie) aka violent ageing bully with grudges against several dozen persons, their spokesperson and gave weirdo, on again-off again druggie, not very trustworthy, "Sparkles" a job as a youth worker!! (OMG!!) WTF??? (The less said here the better)

5) As far as funding/aka cold hard cash is concerned, the Hutt Street Centre is DROWNING IN IT!! So much so, they have been able to organize major building extensions to their staff offices and staff car park as well as continuously employ new staff (Go onto Seek.com and or Indeed.Com and read how many job adverts the Hutt Street Centre, puts online, asking for new staff) No agency, with a tight budget post Covid-19, is currently able to do this?) and finally,

6) As far as actually helping individuals, well this isn't something that the Hutt Street Centre is actually very good at. From denying people a seat at the Christmas Dinner, to fighting with Dr. Jeffris and her team at Our Street Family Matters, (a quietly modest individual, who unlike the Hutt Street Centre, shows GENUINE CHRISTIAN CHARITY, to ignoring drug dealing on the footpath outside of their business and the ongoing fear that local traders endure, when abused by clients of the Centre. (Apparently this doesn't warrant any kind of intervention)

So Tarryn, I hope you read this and decide if you want to raise more money, to give it to a more worthy cause (I don't care how much you raise, that's not the issue, what i am concerned about, is giving it to ORGANIZATION'S THAT CLEARLY DON'T NEED IT!) All you have done, is upgrade the A/C or the Staff lounge or staff car park, or enable the CEO to buy another expensive gadget for his desk or computer. This money won't be going directly to clients! Trust me on that one!

The Art of Deception: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAmGnyj0u7E  Nothing to do with the Hutt Street Centre, but it might give an idea of how their propaganda works on you. 

Beacon of Hope Christmas lunch
 
Not such a big crowd. A dozen generous volunteers cooked and served the lunch to about 55 of us. The volunteers included two black African women who acted normal. They had good Australian accents and were neither condescending or displaying any sort of inferiority complex. These type of people are the best antidote to the underclass resentment against immigrants. Better than white bureaucrats at other joints posturing their anti-racist credentials.
 
Beacon of Hope preacher Brent Rutland was kindly there with his wife and five kids.
 
Mick of Mick and Denise dressed in his best black suit. He was visiting his dead relatives at the Smithfield cemetery after lunch. His mother was murdered in 1974. He said she’d left home two years earlier after kicking him in the head. Mick’s sister died of cancer twenty years previously. She’d gone out with Creepy Rob for a short period. Most people at soup kitchens have long associations with each other.
 
Mick is allergic to pumpkin so after spotting something orange in the meal he passed it to Denise. The African volunteer brought him a heaping plate of pork, beef and chicken. Nothing else. He ate that and then two more.
 
Other food included braised and steamed cauliflower with a white sauce, Coleslaw, a fresh salad, good ice-cream, Christmas pudding and six types of soft-drinks. A volunteer looked sideways when she put a plate of mince pies on the table and a 75-year-old dispatched them to a plastic container from her bag. Cutlery, a serviette and pouches of salt and pepper came in individual brown paper bags.
 
Julie said someone broke into her car on Christmas eve and stole the presents she’d been hiding for her son.
 
Another diner said the old Scottish volunteer at Cos We Care had threatened him with a milk crate when he’d criticised the frozen milk with a rather old Best-By date.
 
An older diner said a little sore on his neck had enlarged and similar sores had erupted over his body. A biopsy showed it was metastatic and he was due to have his lymph glands surgically removed. He didn’t want to talk about death or the Filthy Few.
 
Despite our tragedies, the lunch was a boost to what had been a horrible year with the government and other charities shoving us this way and that way. Every act of generosity evokes various responses from hatred to appreciation. It seemed that this day it struck a positive chord with many of us in attendance. The Beacon of Hope has stuck with us all year unlike the big outfits that exercised “an abundance of caution” and threw us to the winds.
 
As we left the dining hall, the Bhutanese Christians arrived and began their own show in the church. The Beacon of Hope lends its building to numerous Christian groups.
 
The free lunches resume on Tuesday 12 January 2021 from 11:30am to 12:30pm. No I.D. or registration required.
 
Beacon of Hope Elizabeth
38 Ashfield Road, Elizabeth (near where Nathan Clarke was stabbed to death) 
ph 08 8255 2467. Free salad rolls, soup, coffee and meat pies. 11:30am to 12:30pm Tuesday to Friday. Free bread out front. Food parcels to take away for those in special need. No I.D. or registration required for Eternal Shame File. Served from outdoor trailer. Good staff and clients.

Imagine tuning through the radio band only to be SHOUTED at by Boozer Bob or Jeremy Goldeaux or any of the other ALCOHOLIC ARSEHOLES at 5AA : it would be similar to being attacked by a Terrorist or spat in the face.

Tarryn Brumfitt beats her $10,000 goal for Hutt Street Centre

Tarryn Brumfitt beats her $10,000 goal for Hutt Street Centre 
Tarryn from the Hutt Street Centre Foundation tried to raise $10,000 for the Hutt Street Centre. She’d heard C.E.O. Chris Burns say there was an increase in homeless clients at the Centre. Tarryn surpassed her goal, which is now $23,408 including $100 from Willy the Terrorist.
 
But Hutt Street Centre staff refused breakfast to Big Ron a few days before Christmas. He isn’t homeless and lives in an ECH flat. This man in his 70’s suffers an aged-related cognitive decline and has been a client of Hutt Street Centre for decades. He is ex-homeless and the Centre is part of his social milieu. Most clients are ex-homeless rather than homeless. But management has changed their breakfast policy.
 
Chopping and changing policies fractures social linkages of Hutt Street Centre clients. It isn’t as if the Hutt Street Centre is short of money. It’s simply convenience: they’re too lazy to extend their kitchen times to meet social distancing regulations.
 
And one might ask if C.E.O. Chris Burns has reduced his salary in line with reduced services such as kicking out loyal clients like Big Ron? And how much is Burns pulling in while clients like Big Ron are excluded?

 Horse Trader Steve
 
Staff and customers alike were mesmerised by Horse Trader Steve at the Kidman Park Salvo store on Grange Road. They weren’t sure what to do.
 
Horse Trader Steve was snoring loudly on a three-seater lounge. Another customer said he wasn’t asleep and wasn’t snoring. That’s the way he breathes when awake. This is caused by Steve eating too much plus a stressful lifestyle of living in a van.
 
Steve was at Fred’s Van Semaphore on Sunday and had “eaten more than anyone else, more than everyone else put together,” another client had said. This client, an enemy of Steve, begrudgingly admitted Steve was an authentic homeless person, an authentic personality while the rest of us are welfare policy cut-outs.

Christmas day feed for humans (and pets) for under $15.00

Home-made Barley and Vegetable Broth Soup
Home-made Whole meal, Soda Bread
Cherry and Pear Compote made with discounted, slightly off fruit, bought from Balaklava Foodland
Aldi bought- Boiler Chicken, cooked in the Pressure cooker for the pets, to eat on Christmas day
Cold-homemade Tomato and Cucumber Soup (Russian Style)
Iced tea with lemon (no brand variety)
Home-made ginger bread
Home-made- Ginger beer and Stout (given as a gift by a friend)

Total cost= $14.00
Recipe origination (The Barossa Valley Cook book Circ: 1933)
 

All of the meals stated, can be prepared using the most basic requirements. A single hotplate, open fire/firepit or placing a pot over charcoals in a BBQ. The most complicated device I used was a second-hand (virtually vintage) 1970 Pressure Cooker, I bought from a second-hand shop in Wallaroo, earlier in the year. These are all "one-pot" meals and require no baking and or braising or grilling. Even the "boiler" chicken could be cooked in water, in a simple pot with a lid on (I choose to pressure cook because its quicker and the bones get softer, which is a bonus, considering I have elderly pets.) I used an electric blender to puree the cold cucumber and tomato soup, but you can get the same results by pushing the cooked tomato and cucumber through a wire sieve. The end result will still be the same. The cookbook these recipes came out of is circ 1933, at a time, when it was unlikely that most "average" house-holds in the Barossa Valley (and or elsewhere in regional SA) had electricity. (It was just as expensive then, as it is now).

Happy Christmas eating on a budget.

Baptist Care WestCare no good

From the anonymous contact page
 
“Did not bother to attend WestCar Wright Street near Whitmore Square Adelaide CBD on Friday 25 December 2020 :

“Too much disappointment the past year from the mob that now runs the place such as

1. high expectations for visitors to the Baptist Car Store on the corner to front-up with HARD CASH just to obtain FREE (or allegedly FREE) bread fruit vegtables

2. surrender of identity before foreign nationals just to get in courtyard (are they working for Big Evil you-know-whos?)

3. horrible logo worn by asian oriental "volunteers" that suggests they are willing to wear anything emblazoned by the Evil Empire (New York, Brooklyn, EVERLAST violence brands)

On the Street
 
Cash Converters at Kilkenny sold a hard disk last week containing the vilest videos of sado-masochism. Hard disks have such little value that it isn’t worth Cash Converters’ time to remove the contents. Such disks are available for sale to children.
 
And it’s not as if Cash Converters has anything to worry about. There isn’t any government agency to complain to. The authorities are the propagators of degradation.

Four people died from Covid-19 last year. This has geared the police commissioner into lockdown fever. How many in the homeless scene have died from overdoses from drugs under the commissioner who said, “I’m not in the business of arresting Ice dealers…”

Most Salvo stores have experienced buoyant trading in the days before Christmas. They’ve surpassed their required sales figures. Many items last just hours, even minutes on the shelves as collectors like Horse Trader Steve are constantly on the watch for quality collectables at Kidman Park Salvo Store.
 
Asians at the Whitmore Square Salvos are generally the best customers and buy trolley loads of clothing. No one knows what they do with it. It isn’t as if Salvo prices are low: they are exorbitant.

A social worker named Rena at Croydon Housing Trust told a tenant that his female guest was not allowed to photograph other people on public land.
 
What a fool? It generally isn’t illegal to capture images of people on public land and in any case it wasn’t any business of this social worker. To use landlord blackmail in response to a non-related issue outside a Housing Trust property is itself wrongful intimidation.

Remember homeless Les at the Elizabeth library. He went there to sleep, but when the Council closed the library due to the virus he disappeared, some say to a hostel in the city.
 
A friend remembers Les walking the streets on feet covered in sores as his shoes had fallen apart. The friend gave Les his shoes and said it was lucky they had the same sized feet.
 
Others insist Les owns a house that he rents while living outside, but they might be mixing him up with Mathew who appears more homeless than Les and does own his own house, controlled by the Public Trustee.

Richard “Call me Ritchie” Hollands said in the Don Dunstan Foundation newsletter that he’s proud of the success of the Adelaide Zero Project.

Instead he claims the Adelaide Zero Project has housed many hundreds of homeless people. Yet the partner agencies have always been funded for homeless housing. The Adelaide Zero Project has made little difference except to divert money from building houses to meaningless bureaucracies.

An older man works for food or for three-dollars an hour. He said he’s always short of money because he supports a drug-addicted friend with drugs. He says she gets off the gear for a period then relapses and he helps her out. This prevents her from doing dangerous activities to get money.

Australian Unemployed Workers Union

Has the AUWU (Australian Unemployed Workers Union) website, become little more than an unregulated, sounding board, for seriously mentally ill/behaviourally disturbed individuals?

Being a reader and sometimes contributor on this website https://muut.com/auwustories I have noticed of late (particularly in the lead up to Christmas) that this website, has become an (unchecked and largely unregulated) sounding board, for (what appears to all intents and purposes to be) some very mentally ill individuals, as well as a freebee posting site for the more generalized, angry, disenfranchised, all knowing/all hating individuals.
 
I would have thought that any website that is open to the public (this one included) is monitored (even if just occasionally) and seriously offensive and or disturbed posts are removed.
 
On a more popular note, those individuals who seem to be the most disturbed and most frequent posters onto the AUMU website, rarely post elsewhere (including on this website) because they know that what they post here (and or elsewhere for that matter) is monitored, and content removed and or altered as well as criticized by others, making them responsible for what they write and or whom they choose to write about. (As it should be as well).
 
Everyone has at least some responsibility to write material that is not completely offensive, disturbing, wrong and or possibly libellous. It is also the editors responsibility to make sure, that if this kind of material is contributed, it is either altered and or does not make it onto the website (this goes for any website, not just this one).
 
On a final note, other than provide an unregulated blog page, and some phone numbers to call if you are having issues with your job network provider and or Centacrud (which from experience, are rarely answered now or messages left, are not returned) what exactly does the AUWU do now for its constituents?

I know they produced an excellent guide for unemployed persons, but even this is now seriously out of date (circa 2018) I am not suggesting that providing websites where people can comment and or assist for readers to assist them, is a bad thing (this is what we do here, on this website) I am however suggesting, that content be monitored regularly and or removed if offensive, bizarre and or not relevant to the nature of the website.

The website address is https://muut.com/auwustories

Check it out for yourself and make up your own mind and then make a comment about it, if you like. Would be interested to hear what others think?

Escaping then avoiding the morass
The Night Talker
 
“More life-altering- POSITVO "hacks" that will stop you from getting in the shit and or maybe get you out of the shit…

Rule number 1- Don't do casual/unprotected sex with strangers. It often leads to more permanent problems like STD's and or unplanned pregnancies/children and or relationships, you don't want to be in…

Rule number 2- If you can't afford it, don't buy it. If you must have it, lay-by it and pay it off by the due date. If its something you need for work etc, then think about purchasing a refurbished item, that comes with some kind of warranty. Avoid buying brand new, unless you have no choice. Always shop around to find the best price and haggle, haggle, haggle!

Rule number 3- Don't loan large sums of money to family and or friends, unless you are happy with the idea, you probably won't get your money back. If you must help out someone, buy them an e-card in their name only, which you can put conditions on (e.g. can't buy tobacco or scratchy tickets or alcohol) Remember bailing out your kids or other family members, each time they get in financial trouble, will never end well.

Rule number 4- Don't buy designer anything (Clothes, mobile phones, cars, shoes, pets etc) Complete waste of money and unless you are GiGI Hadid, who the fu*** are you trying to impress? A mongrel dog or slightly flabby, rescue kitty from your local animal shelter, will give you just as much love and probably be a lot healthier, than some overbred exotic breed, that you brought from a puppy/kitty/farm supplier. ADOPT DON'T SHOP!

Rule number 5- Don't let strangers into your house and or look after your kids. School/child care centers aside, if you have kids, it's YOUR FLAPPING RESPONSIBILITY TO LOOK AFTER THEM, when they are under your supervision! Unless you are some kind of human light bulb, that people are inextricably drawn too......strangers who turn up at your door, bearing gifts, should not get any further. They usually have ulterior motives. (e.g. are pederasts and or are looking for a freebee roof and three meals a day, AT YOUR EXPENSE!)

Rule number 6- If for whatever reason, you failed to finish school (sometimes this might have been for issues, outside of your control) go back and finish your education. Then continue to educate yourself, so you don't end up on the labor market scrap-heap. Set a good example so that your children and other family members, will always remember you as a positive role model, not as some perpetually unemployed, job network recipient, WFTD, roundabout wrangler.

Rule number 7- Don't compromise your principals, just because someone else (e.g. husband, boyfriend, partner, employer) expects you to. This can only go from bad to worse to completely f***ed up. If your gut instinct tells you something is wrong, then it probably is. Ending up with a prison sentence and or criminal record, because someone else told you it was a "good-idea" is a sure fire way to f*** up your life and don't expect family and friends to come visit you each weekend, if you end up in the clink. They will desert you even before the ink is dry, on your sentencing paperwork and finally,

Rule number 8- Decide what is absolutely necessary, what you would like to have additionally and what is unnecessary and or a complete waste of time, money and or resources. Food, shelter, (reasonable) clothing, adequate heating and cooling (given our climate) and a sustainable income, are all givens. We need these to maintain a quality of life, that is above living under a bridge overpass or under a piece of corrugated iron. if you want to embrace the transient, live-in my car or under a tree, life-style, then that is your choice, however the Department for Child Protection and the Education Department, might have something else to say, if you make your kids live like that too. Remember to pay your rent/mortgage and other essential bills first. if you are robbing Peter to pay Paul (so to speak) ask yourself where else is your money going? You don't need cigarettes nor alcohol, nor takeaway nor confectionary nor gambling products, nor Foxtel or high speed internet or online dating etc, etc etc...None of these things are necessary to sustain life. The sooner you realize this, the better.

Talking to Ministers
Piano Player Wayne
 
“Some talk about agencies not opening may find themselves losing funding faster than an express train to Noarlunga,” Wayne says of government funded homeless “non-profits” using the virus as an excuse to cancel services.
 
He’s talking particularly about Anglicare and the Salvation Army and says, “Some high-ranking Anglicans full back this. The only agency I would trust now is St Vincent de Paul. The only one that passes muster with me. I’d chop the funding off the other ones [Anglicare and the Salvation Army] and give it to St Vincent de Paul.”
 
“You can tell which agencies are fat and lazy by the kilo weight of their staff. They’re too busy looking at Facebook [in order] to get out of work,” Wayne says, not joking. “There are two officers in Adelaide [Salvation Army] large enough to apply for their own post codes.”

Mick and Denise see the Port Wakefield ghost

Mick and Denise from Fred's Van saw the ghost driving back from Kadina earlier this month. Two passengers in the back seat were asleep while Mick and Denise were awake.
 
The ghost’s grey horse was alongside the road. Mick said it appeared white in the car headlights. Denise didn’t see the horse, but she saw the 7-foot ghost bang against the front of the car. He glared through the windscreen. Mick said he had red eyes and was misty and went through the car.

The Port Wakefield Ghost
The Night Talker

“The Port Wakefield Ghost is real...I haven't seen him but both my parents did back in the mid-1960's, whilst driving from Whyalla to Adelaide on the old Port Wakefield road in my dad’s 1949 Morris Lowlight two door car (which had a top speed of 40 mph which translates to about 65kph, if you convert the speed over to kilometres).
 
“It is alleged that the Port Wakefield Ghost is the Ghost of an WW2 Pilot who was killed during the war. He allegedly walks the highway at different times of the year, still in his uniform carrying his swag, asking for a lift into Adelaide.
 
‘Those who have given him a lift say he needs to get to his mother’s house in Adelaide and could they please hurry. Some state he then disappears within minutes, others say he sits in the back of the car for a while and when you look back, he is gone. Others say they stop for him and he walks towards their car and just fades away...some have driven straight through him.
 
“However all who have witnessed him say have given almost identical descriptions of what he looks like. I don't know this for certain, but there is alleged evidence of him in the form of a photo that is being held at a Museum in Mallala (he was alleged to have trained at the airfield there during the 2nd World War) but because so many people were curious about him and he allegedly still has relatives in Mallala, it was permanently removed from display, to protect the privacy of his remaining relatives and to stop wannabee psychics/ghost hunters from looking up his details.

“Just another quick pointer, some people have stated that there has been an increase in sightings of the Port Wakefield Ghost, but it has later turned out to be Jesus of Dublin walking along the highway at night. He walks between Port Wakefield and Dublin quite regularly and he is NOT the Port Wakefield Ghost.”

Beware of Help
 
An eastern suburbs Adelaide man got diabetes. A surgeon chopped off one of his legs. He got depressed and stayed indoors for years, his self-esteem and confidence shattered. Perhaps for his own protection, his finances were taken over by the Public Trustee.
 
His mother died. She’d been in a decent nursing home. She left her house to her one-legged son. He put the house up for sale. He intended to use the money to put himself in a more independent setting, free from welfare.
 
The Public Trustee put the house up for sale for one million dollars. A buyer was quickly found. This was in Dulwich, a rich suburb of Adelaide. The price seemed a little low. The one-legged owner got a lawyer to investigate. There were suspicions that a crooked deal was happening. No proof. After apparent prompting from the lawyer, the Public Trustee raised the price to $1.2 million.
 
The one-legged man is hiring another lawyer, a specialist, to help him disentangle himself from the Public Trustee. Once they get you, it is hard to escape.
 
Such stories are common about the Public Trustee.

Why the Sikhs should be running charitable food projects and not the fat-cat Churches
The Night Talker

Tenets of Sikhism
God
There is only one God.
“God is without form, or gender.
Everyone has direct access to God.
Everyone is equal before God.
A good life is lived as part of a community, by living honestly and caring for others.
Empty religious rituals and superstitions have no value.

These are the values that Sikhs within Australia, live by. Sikh migrants to Australia have proven to be modest, hard-working and industrious.
 
“When Melbourne went into three months of perpetual lockdown mode (aka Covid-19) the Sikhs were the ones (who without payment or direction) went into action, feeding several hundred, high-rise public housing tenants. They are excellent cooks and well understand how to get maximum nutritious value out of a vegetarian diet.
 
“If a Sikh were contest Scomo (aka SCUMMO) at the next election, I would vote for them, regardless of which political party they were standing in for. The Sikhs get my vote and out of all of the Religions, they seem to be one of the most grounded (and this is coming from an agnostic socialist).
 
I can't speak of what might be happening overseas in regards the Sikh's, but here in Australia, they have proved themselves to be valued members, of our Multi-cultural society.”

Park Terrace, Gilberton
Housing Trust units
(Hell I am Here).
From a tenant

“Open letter to Public Housing Hell SA:

Re:BushWackerAttacker + Doldrums of LOUD Drug Drums, Drug Bums

Today, xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, I was departing my unit, and leaving the units area via the back footpath, when much to my chagrin, a male tenant, who seems to be from unit xx, was busy wacking and attacking at the shubbery some of us had found quite dear over the past 20 years or more. The plants were/are located to the South and Southwest of unit xx, and he was obviously cutting the living hell out of them. They were scattered all over the footpath, and in my way as I attempted to leave.

As I was attempting to vault over the remains of our newly murdered plant friends, the fellow started to get into my face, goading me into conversing with him, EVEN THOUGH WE ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION to converse with the various malfunctional tenants, especially when they are creating hell and havoc in the area.

Also I scarcely know the fellow and do not want to attract or be part of a Predator interaction, such as that with Amphetamine addicts.

Apparently, our HSA officer is Tim Raymond, although at one time it was Michael Carey (?). Some of us have been taking Michael Carey's advice through all these past years to completely AVOID interaction with those who threaten molest harass and (in my case) sentence us to DEATH (yes I have been living under a Death Sentence from a Druggie Biker tenant and their gang which is still inhabiting the premises, my offence to them, just keeping to myself).

Could SAHA / HSA take a look into WHAT IN THE HELL is happening in this unit complex related to the AMENITY of Nature Plants, and the need to preserve a natural greenery, especially since there are probably various unhuman Animals such as insects and birds (and at one time blue-tongued lizards) who depend on a green space rather than a human MEAN space,where the area has been thoroughly rubbished by clearing, minor scale deforestation ?

A final plea, whether it be the LOUD ASS Biker Druggie tenants in Units xx or x, or the, now apparent problem tenant fellow in Unit xx,

PLEASE LET THEM KNOW THAT WE ARE JUST THERE AS TENANTS

and

NOT THEIR VICTIMS, intended VICTIMS.

We have NO WISH to be involved in their various problems or know them in any way.

It is often a case of respect for PRIVACY:

We do not want the Drug Tenants blasting us with their Bomb Boxes (Ghetto Makers Quakers Shakers) or flinging molestation at us, because we are Private People, often tenants of long standing, who have no wish to be part of the bad fortune that now hangs over this HSA / SAHA administered area.

PLEASE CALL OFF YOUR MALFUNTIONAL TENANTS.

Is “Christmas” an imposed meme
​and other vicissitudes?
The Night Talker 

“Ways to make life more tolerable, during Christmas and or any other time for that matter and or how to not make things more shitty, than they already are...

“I hate flapping Christmas. Honestly, I was doing some (quite meagre) grocery shopping the other day at my local Foodland, (mostly no brand-canned goods, a few personal items and some pet food) when I said to myself, If I hear one more F***ing Christmas Carol, I am going home, to shoot myself in the head! I cannot for the love of Christ, understand why you need to make an extra effort to be nice to people at Christmas, when you should be nice to them all year round, (not just at Christmas time?) Okay whinge aside...Let's face it, it has been a SHIT YEAR and the sooner it disappears forever the better. However, my point being that you can do things to prevent either going totally "Postal" (aka rocking up at your Local Job Network provider or Centrelink appointment, wearing a suicide vest) or disappearing into the PERPETUAL SEA OF DEBT...... here is my SELF-HELP LIST for PEOPLE WHO F***KING REALLY NEED IT, OR JUST WANT TO GET ON TOP OF THINGS...

1) STOP SPENDING MONEY ON STUPID SHIT YOU DON'T NEED. It doesn't matter if its Christmas or any other flapping time of the year. If you don't have the money, you don't have the money. If its not an essential, then don't spend money on it, and or at least have a really hard think, about how you can better spend your money. If you have a tribe of kids, who are screaming for presents, set up a yearly savings plan and then have the little horrors, buy what they want, with whatever they have saved up, by the time Christmas comes around (and or not saved-which will teach them, a valuable life lesson) Cook simple meals (aka chilli-bean stew or Vegetable Chow chow, bubble and squeak, Fried Cabbage, Pumpkin Soup, etc etc etc. Its better for you, has similar protein to meat and is a third of the cost. If you can get these food items from charities for no cost, all the better.

2) If you ARE DROWNING IN THE PERPETUAL SEA OF DEBT, GET HELP! Call the Salvo's telephone Debt/Counselling help line on 1800-007-007 and talk to a registered financial counsellor about getting out of the sea of debt, FOREVER! If you have a sponging husband, boyfriend, friends and or family, F*** THEM OFF! As far as your children goes, it doesn't mean that you suddenly hate them, what it does mean however is that YOU GOTTA GROW SOME BALLS BIG TIME, to make positive change in your life and tell them, THEY CAN NO LONGER BLEED YOU DRY AND ITS TIME FOR THE (ADULT) "TITTY GRABBERS" TO GROW UP AND MOVE OUTA HOME!

2) EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW AGAIN AND SECOND HAND IS NOT ALWAYS SECOND RATE! Everything new from furniture to smart phones, is F***KING OVERPRICED! A brand new car, depreciates by 15% each additional three months that you drive it and so forth and so forth and so forth. New clothes (aka $29.00 T-shirt at Target) was probably purchased by the retailer, from some child labor sweat-shop in India, for around 75 cents (so you do the math's, as far as the mark-up is concerned) This is not to say, you need to go to extremes (e.g. borrow someone elses dentures or hearing aide) there is frugal and then there is, just plain stupid......What I am trying to say, is there are ways of reducing everyday costs, (such as owning a car or having clothes to wear.) You can get around perfectly fine, in a well-maintained second hand car and look decent, in second hand clothes. Sure you might want to buy something new to attend a family members wedding etc, but those are exceptions to the rule. Most of the time, wearing Op Shop clothes, is cheaper and unless you walk around with a sign on your back, saying you bought this blouse from blah blah Salvo's store, who the f*** is going to know AND,

3) If your currently unemployed and or struggling to get extra hours in a shitty job and or occupation, PULL YOUR FINGER OUT AND UPSKILL YOURSELF. There are plenty of no-cost and or low cost courses out there, and or if they are not available, bite the bullet and get a HECS and or VTEC student loan, so that you can complete the course you need to do, to become qualified in something (of relevance?). Evidence clearly shows us that a better educated and or skilled individual, has a much higher chance of gaining (and maintaining) employment, than someone with little to no skills. If your never going to be able to do that, (and some of us are not) then organize with your Job Network Provider, to be put into a sheltered workshop environment. There is no shame in doing this kind of work, and it will mean that you will no longer have any kind of mutual obligation (e.g. work for the dole/job search) requirements.

“Good luck, and don't let the bastards grind you down!”

Big Issue Magazine et al
From the anonymous contact page

“Arrived in Adelaide homeless after corrupt police burnt my house down, looking to get some work. Found out bout big issue [Big Issue Magazine] so marched myself down there after speaking to various vendors. Some were very helpful. Soon worked out it was a mug’s game. Standing on street corners in all weather for 350 cents per sale, having to pre buy the magazine.

“I walk into the flash church, first I checked the staff cars out, there was some flash wheels there. The staff had all high fashion, 1000-dollar phones, expensive jewellery makeup and hair dos. Bisexual Brendan a pretty boy who powdered his nose. They made their money from the vendors, disabled and homeless people doing hard work for maybe a few bucks an hour. Slave labour. Run in connection with jabba the hutt Street

“Then I saw the advertisement for street soccer. So I turned up. What a crowd, mental Patients, drunks, ice addicts, hipster uni students, a Greek coach in his 60 thousand-dollar hsv, a street to home worker, a former drug dealer that slipped into depression when he sold a batch of bad drugs on Hindley that killed a few.

“My knowledge and My skills and my competitiveness soon turned heads. The workers got really jealous of me real quick. Some tried to be better players, others tried hurting me.

“Then they stated bringing speakers to half time. Professionals from the industry. I asked simple, knowledge-based questions that showed them for what they were: liars frauds and monsters.

“They felt threatened and some turned to bullying.

“But when a former west adelaide S.A.N.F.L. League player came and started dribbling pure shit about how SAPOL cares, me and the depressed former drug dealer just walked away, turned our back

“That's when jabba the hutt streets former junky, ***** *** ***** the support worker went feral on both of us, pushing us out. He stole from my bag when I was playing, threatened, stalked us like junkeys do.
 
“See one day he got into so much drug debt his life was changed, he turned Informant and life saved. How dare we walk away from the lying pig. They saved his life. He said as much. Complaints were made and then Big Issue senior staff started their harassment.”

The C.I.A., the Contras, Grant Stevens and the Hutt Street Centre drug dealers

The Central Intelligence Agency was flying heroin and opium into the Uniting States from Columbia and other Latin American countries. It was to raise money for a good cause: the Contras fighting the left-wing government of Nicaragua.
 
So, do the upper command of the South Australian police support the drug dealers operating around the Hutt Street Centre? Sort of like supporting the Contras to nail the leftists? Sounds improbable, eh?
 
S.A. Police Commissioner Grant Stevens said on ABC Radio that, “I’m not in the business of arresting Ice dealers…” He explained that he had a higher cause of going to the source of the drug traffickers, well, not quite the source, China, but the larger importers and distributors in South Australia. And we might assume that he was also thinking that the small-time dealers at the Hutt Street Centre could be coerced into helping him and thus needed to be protected in their business. And that critics of these Hutt Street dealers would not be helped by police if they were attacked.
 
Does this tactic sound similar to the C.I.A. protecting the importers flying over the border from Columbia? Evil overlooked for a higher cause. A good idea? Perhaps, but not if you’re at street level at the Hutt Street Centre.

(above) Soso Soso has become the Chief Messenger of Infinity in the Adelaide Homeless Scene. (Adelaide Homeless Journal December 2020).

Who is U City?
 
It was the Maugham Church, a thriving parish on the corner of Franklin and Pitt Streets, Adelaide until parishioners stopped going there. Church management responded by filling it with black Africans until they were given the boot.
 
The church was demolished and replaced by a 20-floor glass building in its place costing at least $80 million. Where the hell did the money come from?
 
I phoned U City and a male receptionist was reluctant to say anything except that there was no place for homeless people there. He said it was “hotel stay” and “private apartments”. Upon further questioning he reluctantly admitted it also included N.D.I.S. disabled tenants. He asked if I was N.D.I.S. and when I said no he didn’t want to talk further.
 
What are they hiding? Who actually owns the building as Uniting Communities didn’t have $80 million in the bank or did they? They had $7 million hidden in a secret organisation in 1992, but when discovered got an accountant to disguise this money in their annual reports. Did it expand to $80 million or even $100 million as some say the building cost? What is the origin of the money and does someone hold the title deeds until the mortgage is paid? The devil is in the detail.  
 
And who is the building really for? The rooms cost $200 to $320 a night. Uniting Communities, formerly the Adelaide Central Mission, and the Uniting Church appear to have changed their priorities.

Dissidents in the Foodbank monopoly
 
Lifepoint Church in Modbury don’t use Foodbank. By doing this, they avoid paying annual fees and delivery charges. Secondly, LifePoint’s suppliers provide fresher free fruit and vegetables than Foodbank.
 
Lifepoint volunteers go straight to the producers north of Adelaide. They get odd-shaped vegetables not acceptable by supermarkets including continental cucumbers too large for the wrapping machines. Or anything in surplus. Some donated vegetables are picked the previous day.
 
Cos We Care operate on the same principle. Most of their costs are from picking up supplies. Cos We Care doesn’t accept government funding that might compromise their principles. They won’t collect personal client data for the government’s Eternal Shame File.  
 
Our Street Family Matters also operates on a similar principle and relies on individual and business donations that don’t come with conditions attached.
 
All three groups haven’t any paid employees, directors or managers involved in their free food service. What you donate to them gets straight to us, the clients.
 
For more details of these three organisations, please read the Adelaide Homeless Journal Free Food Guide.

Working the National Disability Insurance Scheme

The mother of a talented autistic son wanted speech therapy lessons for him. The intelligent young man also wanted speech therapy. His lack of speaking ability wasn’t from an intellectual disability.
 
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (N.D.I.S.) entered the equation. This is Australia’s national disability funding agency that devises a treatment and support plan then contracts the tasks to private businesses.
 
The mother said the N.D.I.S. funded a therapy package worth $60,000 for the first year, but which included little speech therapy despite this being the reason they went to them in the first instance. The N.D.I.S. made an excuse that sounded like they had to fill a quota for other treatments, but had already filled that for speech therapy.
 
The unwanted support involved “socialisation” that included going to a park with a support worker. This support worker deemed the first event a massive success. The young man had run about the park and had a good time. That’s what the case notes stated. But the truth was the man had sat in the car and read a book. He is an intellectual not intellectually handicapped.
 
The pressure of being forced into therapies in which he had no interest led to an extremely negative event. I won’t recount it here for privacy reasons, but the therapy was proving to be worse than useless.
 
Anyway, the N.D.I.S. and a contractor worked out a new option. They could claim the man was even more disabled than they’d originally thought and needed an even more expensive treatment plan.
 
The only catch was that to upgrade his disability they’d have to first use up the $60,000 allocation. They said with lots of effort the therapists, the mother and the son could burn up the money in a month. After that, they could embark on an even more intensive therapy package despite the negative impact, but at least it would include extra speech therapy.
 
Anyone in their right mind would suggest that it would be better if the N.D.I.S. cancelled the unwanted “support” and use some of the saved money for extra speech therapy then return the rest to the government? But this doesn’t fit into the N.D.I.S. bureaucratic structure.  
 
Meanwhile, the “support” continues without helping anyone except the bureaucrats and contractors. If Australia was rich it wouldn’t be such a scandal, but the country is running huge deficits funded by loans from foreign banks and governments.  
 
The therapy industry like the employment services industry is so profoundly encumbered by sectional interests it resembles a cancer tumour.

Poverty Row
The Night Talker

“The Communists, the Catholics, and the Poverty row- left of center/ unpaid "Charities," the only ones that genuinely care......

“Let's get one thing straight. Organizations such as Baptist care, The Salvation Army Uniting Care, Wesley Care and Anglicare are VERY, VERY WEALTHY! They don't have any financial issues whatsoever.
 
“They could (if they wanted to) RUN A 24 HOUR A DAY/SEVEN DAY A WEEK, THREE MEALS EVERY DAY, SET-UP, if they really put their mind to doing something about food insecurity, amongst the most disadvantaged.
 
“They could have 20 showers available and or send 10 shower buses to all parts of Adelaide and not feel a cost impost. Why? They don't pay a single sent of tax......They are bolstered up by OLD money from the OLD Country.....(aka Britain) and they have so many contracts going (aka have so many fingers in SO many pies) (so to speak) it is simply mind-boggling.
 
“So as the author rightly stated? Why do they close down over Christmas (in some cases for five weeks) and why have they created so many imposts and or requirements to get anything from them, it borders on the ludicrious (e.g. you need to be a single mother, Indigenous Lesbian, who is also a double amputee, recently released from Prison, who is also currently studying an Arts Degree) before you qualify for any assistance!)
 
“These agencies created MOST of the clients that now attend soup kitchens, through their horrendously abusive and neglectful institutions and or foster care system (think of Kai Meekins, Mick of Mick and Denise Fame and or the Sad, Can Collector (all graduates of Historical Institutional and or Foster care systemic abuse).
 
“So in my opinion, they should be FORCED TO COUGH UP BIG TIME!!! Running a 24 hour a day, seven day a week soup kitchen/emergency drop in center/shelter, would be a good place to start…”

This is a problem with homeless welfare where  clients get drawn into an agency's  propaganda unit.
