18 - AFL used to drown out Cheery Creek changes ShareEmbedEmail

<p>We need jobs. As the ABC said "Wyndham — located in Melbourne's sprawling south-west along the highway between Melbourne and Geelong — experienced one of Australia's largest population increases between 2011 and 2016, according to government statistics, adding 65,000 people in just five years."</p> <p><br></p> <p>By 2016, people working in the area grew to 61,909 but people in the area who work grew to 217,118, leaving a total jobs deficit of almost 155,000.</p> <p><br></p> <p>https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-06-12/jobs-boom-in-cbds-leaves-a-long-commute/11198142</p> <p><br></p> <p>And yet some changes to the Cherry Creek Youth Justice Facility currently under construction, were announced on the eve of the AFL grand final. A spot that is to provide some local job relief.</p> <p><br></p> <p>"The design of the Cherry Creek facility has been revised [scaled down from around 240 to 140 beds] to deliver a more specialised facility that focuses on staff safety and reducing re-offending among Victoria’s most complex and challenging young males aged 15-18 years." https://www.premier.vic.gov.au/building-a-safer-and-more-secure-youth-justice-system/</p> <p><br></p> <p>This episode contains material used for fair use commentary, criticism, and educational purposes. &nbsp;See Hosseinzadeh v.
