Jane Caro Jason Clare MP The Saturday Paper We should not only make uni free, but support students on a livable student income payment!

Jason Clare's father was a public school teacher. Tanya Plibersek sent her children to public schools. Anthony Albanese is fond of talking about his own childhood in public housing. I think they know our education system is a bleeding sore. | Jane Caro satpa.pe/yhDwzdN
