This species is a pretty awful weed, really painful if the spines catch you. I've been cut up having brushed passed them on my bike

Yes it’s on my neighbouring public housing property attempting to come into my garden. I’ve notified ACT housing, response so far: no action. I will post some branch bits into some MLAs soon if there’s no action.
