FTFY.
Like most of the other growing injustices doing anything other than sending them home will compound the problem.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much. -

No-one should get a free ride. I can find thousands of menial jobs that should be done in return for benefits. The tricky bit is finding the right balance but currently we just seem to have handouts with no return.Comment

I had a colleague that did alot of work with the homeless. Most of the reasons they are homeless is nothing to do with money - it is emotional, drugs etc.
I don't think those helping the homeless should be snitching. It will mean homeless will have no-one to trust.Comment

Problem is that the article is about charities referring foreign rough sleepers to immigration.
Unless we do that then the foreign component will grow. This will make things worse for everyone.
The existing problems we have are deep enough and as mentioned its driven by things other than money.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Yes it needs to be fixed but the problems are not solved by a quid given to a beggar.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
