This is an objective, non-partisan view, which will enrage those who believe there is no poverty here, and outrage those of us who know that there IS.
Can we ignore the UN?

Just to save anyone from having to read the UN rapporteur’s report, here is a quote from it:
“[he wrote] ...obvious to anyone who opens their eyes to see the immense growth in food banks and the queues waiting outside them, the people sleeping rough in the streets, the growth of homelessness, the sense of deep despair that leads even the government to appoint a minister for suicide prevention and civil society to report in depth on unheard-of levels of loneliness and isolation”.”
You really can’t ignore this.

BB, you really are taking a simplistic view.
Maybe look a bit more under the covers as to why that may be. In this country the council where you are registered to reside must put you up. Either something is wrong or people dont want to register where they should.
As for food banks, give people a way to get something free and they will, gives them money to buy phones, fags and booze. There may be some genuine cases due to civil servants cocking up but, as previous investigations have shown, many are not genuine.
