Broken Systems QLD

Broken Systems QLD We expose the cracks in Australia's housing system - government inaction - cost of living - rising rents - homelessness, and policy failure. Real stories.

Raw truth. No sugar-coating. Because the system isn't just broken - it's brutal.

BROKEN SYSTEMS — CHAPTER 2

With Helen and Kerryn, we continue the conversation many shy away from — the realities people prefer to categorise, sanitise, or ignore altogether.

This chapter tackles the two sides of homelessness:
• The “clean” homelessness that society feels more comfortable with
• The messy homelessness that challenges, confronts, and is often judged

And how community perception shifts depending on which version is visible.
These aren’t easy conversations — but they’re necessary ones.

🎧 Episodes are now live on Spotify
Perfect for listening on the go, at work, or when you need truth in your ears without needing to watch a screen.

We also reflect on: 🎄 GSL Carols & Kids Christmas Party — moments of community, care, and connection that remind us why this work matters beyond the hard conversations.

🔊 What’s coming next:
• One more podcast episode to wrap up 2025
• 2026 interviews featuring lived experience voices
• Guest speakers from community, advocacy, and leadership spaces
• Invitations extended to Local Council, State, and Federal representatives for real Q&A

Chapter 2 doesn’t soften the edges.
It asks us to sit with discomfort, examine bias, and listen — really listen.

Broken Systems is about truth over comfort.
And we’re only just getting started.

Real stories. Raw truth. No sugar-coating.

Because the system isn’t just broken — it’s brutal.

Broken Systems exists to shine a light where it’s been deliberately kept dark.
We centre real people, lived experience, and conversations that matter — the ones that affect our communities every single day but are too often ignored, minimised, or silenced.

🎤 We’re inviting you to speak.
If you’ve been impacted by broken systems — housing, health, disability, justice, welfare, education, policing, cost of living, mental health, child safety, or any other area where people are falling through the cracks — we want to hear from you.

This is about:
• Giving the community its own voice
• Sharing diverse perspectives, not polished talking points
• Having real conversations, even when they’re uncomfortable
• Creating space for truth, accountability, and change

We’re also calling on:
🏛 Local Council representatives
🏛 State representatives
🏛 Federal representatives

To step forward for open Q&A conversations with the community.
No spin. No deflection. Just honesty, responsibility, and listening.

If you’ve got a story, a question, lived experience, or expertise — reach out.
If you’re tired of being spoken about instead of being listened to — this space is for you.

Broken Systems isn’t here to be comfortable.
It’s here to be necessary.

BROKEN SYSTEMS — CHAPTER 1
With Helen & Kerryn

This is where it begins.

Chapter 1 of Broken Systems opens with Helen and Kerryn — two voices willing to step into the uncomfortable, the messy, and the deeply real.

No scripts.
No spin.
No sugar-coating.

Just lived experience, hard truths, and conversations the system would rather avoid.

This chapter sets the tone for what Broken Systems is about:
• Listening to people who’ve been impacted, not just studied
• Naming what’s not working
• Holding space for truth, grief, anger, resilience, and hope
• Starting conversations that don’t end when the cameras stop

Helen and Kerryn speak from lived reality — the kind that doesn’t fit neatly into policy documents or press releases, but shapes lives every single day.

This isn’t about blame.
It’s about visibility, accountability, and change.

This is Chapter 1 — but it’s not the end.
More voices. More stories. More truth.

If you’ve been affected by broken systems and want your voice heard, reach out.
If you’re a community leader or representative willing to front up for real Q&A — the invitation stands.

Broken Systems doesn’t whisper.
It speaks because silence has cost too much.

If house prices are our main concern, fixating on migrants is one of the most expensive solutions.

THANK YOU

Please support this Petition from paul at Northwest Community Group Inc.

📢 Most people think housing is already a human right in Queensland. It’s not.
Right now, over 2,400 people are sleeping rough in Brisbane — and thousands more are in tents, cars, motels, or bouncing between couches.

Not because they’ve failed. Because the system has.

And while our laws protect things like health, education and privacy - they don’t recognise the right to a safe place to live. No legal guarantee. No obligation. No safety net.

Most people assume that right already exists - but it doesn’t. And when leaders fail to act morally, we need to demand they act legally. That’s why we’ve launched a formal petition to add the right to housing to Queensland’s Human Rights Act - in line with international law.

Because education, health and safety mean nothing when you’re living in a car.

Because dignity starts with shelter.

Because housing shouldn’t depend on luck, charity, or political will - it should be the law.

✍️ Sign here now: https://bit.ly/4gfDkaV

Stand with us. Let’s make it law.
