What a shock, giving people a place to sleep stops them sleeping on the streets!
Next they’ll realise giving people food stops them being hungry!
Next, they’ll realise redistributing wealth from the richest percentiles to the poorest percentiles eliminates poverty!
It’s almost like 1 + 1 = 2?
B…bu…but it’ll trickle dooooown
Amazing how so many MPs love golden showers.
We need to push hard, like delivering a baby, and protect it, when delivered.
i was honestly ready to think this was going to be another “banning rough sleeping and don’t do anything else” but i was pleasantly surprised. who’d have thought that actually getting people places to live instead of just attacking and criminalising sleeping rough would yield positive results.
Is “rough sleeping” a euphemism to try and downplay homelessness, or is that really how it’s referred to on that side of the pond?
Rough sleeping is a specific category of homelessness, meaning people who are sleeping actually outside, on the street. Homelessness can refer more generally to people who are shuttling between different temporary accommodation or couch surfing. Obviously there’s some overlap and people often go from one to the other.
Thank you!
“I think that it can be applied [here], and that is part of the reason why we’re here, because we are happy to share the experiences we have had,” he said. “Human beings are similar everywhere, so it can’t be impossible to apply to other countries as well.”
Looking at you, USA.
