On this episode of The Grapevine, Kulja and Dylan are joined on the line by CEO of VCOSS, Emma King, to discuss how the State government has backflipped on a proposed levy on property development that would be used to fund social housing. They also talk with former secondary school principal Chris Bonnor about the book he co-authored with Tom Greenwell, Waiting for Gonski: How Australia failed its schools.
