Breadline, the show by welfare recipients for us. This episode first aired on Monday 11 August 2025, live from the 3CR studios in Fitzroy. Presenters Jessica Harrison and Kaitlyn Blythe welcome guest Jay Coonan from The Antipoverty Centre into the studio to discuss the Commonwealth Ombudsman’s report on the lawfulness of the Targeted Compliance Framework (also known as “mutual obligations”). With over 1,000 people’s welfare payments found to have been unlawfully terminated between 2022 and 2024, even with the laws introduced after the Robodebt Royal Commission, how did it get this bad? Breadline discusses whether this is a Robodebt 2.0, and Jay suggests first steps to welfare recipients who have had their payments unlawfully cancelled or suspended under this Targeted Compliance Framework. If you’re having problems with Centrelink or want to know more about your welfare rights, you can email an AUWU volunteer at advocacy[@]auwu[dot]org[dot]au. You can also become a volunteer yourself and learn how to help people through AUWU’s advocacy line.
