Another friend was in a hostel and lasted a week due to being broke into 3 times ... luckily he crashed with friends after. If living on streets after this type of incident means the argument “no one needs to live on the streets” holds true then congrats , it’s a winner . stay in a place , whilst being robbed n attacked, or you have no one else to blame for sleeping rough !
Some hostels are dry, so that rules them out for a lot of users. And the ones that aren’t dry can be dangerous places. Also, addicts prefer to be where the dealers are, and the smack dealers who serve up to the homeless are generally plying their trade on the streets. But yeah, there are a lot fewer hostel places, local authority grants have been reduced drastically, as have other support services. Rehab places for alcoholics in particular, but also for heroin addicts, are rarer than hen’s teeth these days. And whereas formerly they wouldn’t discharge their clients straight back to the streets, nowadays they often have to - because there are far fewer dry houses and supported housing schemes. And then there’s the huge crisis in Mental Health services, which have been slashed to the bone under this government.
Me personally , know two folk who were homeless at different stages in their life ... this was 20 year ago ...so maybe everything is ok now with loads of access for folk .
We’re it under lockdown any more mate, you can come out now if you want to. Also, do you have some sort of Sadiq Khan app on your phone that flashes every time a far right site says something disparaging about him? Your obsession with the Mayor of London is most odd, I thought you lived in haystack country now?
So do you think your commie Antifa pals and the persecuted black community in London Constantly getting gunned down by trigger happy cops, will act the **** and start riots during the multiple Mayor endorsed protests ?
Social media is full of these cretins ... The second one ...it’s the pose of shock !!! Instagram likes increased by 100%
Do you get your daily News from the Beano mate? Toby just posted the latest corona update from your hero Mayor .
What the **** are you on about now? You’re hysterical ffs. Take up gardening. Or fishing. Your head will explode if you don’t dial down the fear and loathing a bit.
Do you think the Mayor endorcing 4 separate Black lives matter protests in London will result in riots and looting , like America? I personally would advise them to stay home as London IS STILL IN LOCKDOWN. You clearly have no idea what's going on
This is the sort of bullshit that the Mayor comes out with that annoys me . Coronavirus is racist bla bla bla . Most of the dead are old white men, it's also ageist and sexist too . He's just a race grifter that only cares about non whites constantly waving his victim hood card and blaming all his failures on someone else. "
