Idiot woman...let her sleep on the streets through the winter.
As for weeding out those who choose to vs those who have to...sometimes it's possible to fit into both categories. There are those who though offered help will choose not to take it. They may find shelters to be dangerous or threatening places...which some are. Also, not every council can find shelter for all the homeless..so the relevant charity will supply the next best form of shelter...sleeping bags and tents if available.
Pasta's right, sadly. There are some (very, very few)who do choose to sleep on the streets and refuse help. The vast majority, however, have found themselves with no other option - quite often it is not their fault.
We keep our church open. One winter's night a few years ago, the 'locker-up' found a tramp sheltering in the back pews. She contacted a church member who is chair of a 'homeless assoc.'. He found a bed for the night & help in a hostel afterwards. Sometimes they refuse, I'm told.
It's an issue, overshadowed at the moment of course, but it is there.
'Banning Tents' is probably aimed to avoid those awful scenes which show Paris streets covered with makeshift immigrant camps; so I suppose it bridges the 2 issues really.
There must have been a time when Ms (excuse the woke terminology) Braverman was a kind and decent little girl. What happened to her? I often wonder what happened to others here. I do remember one or two wierdoes in the playground, and one presumed they were the ones who got the belt when dad came home on Friday night.
It's all very sad.
I have a friend who has two sons with schizophrenia, one of whom chooses to live wild in Richmond Park (tolerated with kindness by the parks police) and one in a 'mental hospital' I don't know the correct term for that nowadays). I suppose that Ms Braverman will be pleased to know that neither of them is making high street shoppers (if there are any left) feel uncomfortable when they have to walk past people sleeping in doorways.
Without knowing exactly why, I do notice that the rough sleeper situation seems to have gotten worse here thus year.
There are more makeshift *bedrooms* in the city centre. And more groups of homeless (I assume) gathering regularly. They seem mostly non threatening and don't impose themselves on passers by.
OK,Atheist.You are a wee charmer yourself,by the way.Up here in Scotland, the SNP are in charge of the homeless and homelessness situation.They have been for the past 15 years.Still thousands sleeping on the streets,and the SNP are saying"we welcome immigrants"! If we cant find homes for us indigenous Scots,what hope for the immigrants to Scotland to find homes?
