Policies
Kalyna also has a long opposition to uranium mining and certainly does not want to see it exported through our port.
And as a Green in Port Adelaide, Kalyna is concerned that Labor and Liberal have just passed laws to allow for compulsory income management where social security recipients will lose control of half of their income. The scheme may apply to parts of Salisbury and the Parks area and is really just an insult to people in our community who are already struggling. The Greens in the Senate will oppose any attempt to impose this system here.
