Tory proposal to end homelessness

jeudi 16 août 2018 à 02:00

A Tory proposal would try to end homelessness in England by spending roughly 13 million dollars a year over 10 years.

This is good in principle (though I wonder why the rest of the UK is not included), but it can't possibly do the job as long as the Tories continue pushing most people into poverty. That will generate new homeless people faster than they can get anyone out of homelessness.

Unless perhaps the "accommodation" intended for these people is a small cell.

Note that I am using the word "homeless" in the American sense. In UK terminology means something else.
