The City of Moreton Bay claims homeless people “consented” to having their tents and belongings – including a woman’s daughter’s ashes – thrown in the bin. This is what passes for policy now?

If this is the norm, we’re in deep moral decline.

The video, taken in November 2021, is part of a trove of new evidence that has come to light that may link Carmignani to a series of bear spray attacks on homeless people.
