... but this is interesting Indian businessman spends daughter's marriage budget on 90 houses for the homeless | The Independent

I assumed from the title he must be buying properties in Middlesbrough to get them that cheap but it's actually in India. Though they look like affordable £400k homes in London

Respect to him and my best wishes to the happy couple what a great wedding present!

Is this the one where the self-described "I care about people" Vetran, took the piss out of people who actually did some caring?

There are many rural (and respectful) properties in Eastern Germany going cheap. For about £20k you can buy a six bed house. The problem is that the local communities are likely to protest if you let them out to refugees.

I didn't take the piss, I just suggested they needed luck to not be screwed.

The Calais jungle is reconfiguring along similar lines for the expected Brexfugee influx.

Each home is 12 by 20 square foot, has two windows and two doors and is fitted with lights.

I guess its 12ft x 20ft = 240sqft other wise it would have been a very small house if two of the walls where 12sqft and 20sqft..

Maybe each house has 12 20 square foot rooms.
