Wave Of “Working Homeless”23/05/2023

Sydney’s housing crisis is ­driving a wave of “working homeless” – residents who can’t find or afford a home despite holding a job – with the situation so bad an encampment of tents and car-sleepers has emerged in the heart of Anthony Albanese’s inner-west electorate. 

A man has been shot dead in Sydney’s western suburbs and two burnt out cars have been found nearby, in the latest suspected gangland hit to rock the city’s streets. 

A man who was shot dead by police in front of his family in an inner Brisbane suburb was released from hospital the day before, following a mental health incident. 

Triple premiership coach Damien Hardwick has sensationally quit Richmond with one-and-a-half years remaining on his contract. 

The family of a South Australian who died while hiking Mt Everest have shared an eerie photo of the 40-year-old posing victoriously on what appears to be the remote location.
