"People Live In Bushes And Bus Stops" | DARK SIDE Of Britain's Seaside Holiday Paradise
Look into the dark side of Britain's seaside holiday paradise, with heightened concerns about a homelessness crisis. TalkTV spoke to a number of people in Cornwall, who highlighted a lack of affordable housing, the struggles of a disabled man living on the streets, a shortage of rental properties for locals, and the terror of fleeing violent relationships and ending up homeless.
People called for emergency measures to address what is increasingly becoming a crisis.
TalkTV's Oliver Whitfield-Miocic heard how people were living in unusual places like vans, bus stops, and roundabouts due to a lack of affordable housing in Cornwall.
Homelessness has increased by 40% in the last five years in the Southwest region of England, with Cornwall being the worst affected area.

How should the government solve this crisis? Let us know what it is like where you are!
It is not up to the government to "solve" this crisis, but it is up to the government to move all its rules and regulations out of the way and let the free market resolve the issues of supply and demand.
Stop the flood of immigrants? For at least 10 years
Stop the boats Which would ‘free’ the money from the illegals The billions extra money will help build social housing - our homeless 15 million per day for immigrants - put our British people first
Stop letting immigrants in.
@@EpicAelflaed exactly 300 social houses just built in my town all been allocated to migrants younger people born in the town been on waiting list for 5-8 years have now been told wait is now up to 15 years?? Utter madness
Even if all the illegal migrants were moved out of the hotels this government would not put our own people in the hotels.
Neither would labour, our politicians will help anyone except their own people, they are not on our side.
@@user-dl6pn9kp8m don't vote Labour!!! Yes 3 exclamation marks.
There's a10 billion pot of gold for the ilegals, but no pot of gold allocated for UK homeless citizens unfortunately to finance homelessness
Not governments such the Duke of. Cornwall owns all take som of his. Tax free money and build. Places for poor people
@@gayeinggs5179 there wouldn't be need to build more places for poor people if the migrants had stayed home and build built in their own territories.
But there are plenty of money for migrants...

Any spare cash from the tax payer's. should be spent on the true British people.. not on others that only want to hurt us.. it doesn't make sense. Vote reform. people you know other party's will do nothing to make us great again but?
Innit
But dont say anything about it!
Not too much longer before true British start fighting back…holding hand up in support…
Blame Thatcher for selling all the council houses, not the refugees and asylum seekers for seeking a better life! It was people in suits who ruined this country not people in rags and tracksuits ❤
15 million a day for Illegals. Why are people not rising up in huge numbers. The UK is on the brink of complete collapse. 😢
The sheep got no spine
@@noelwallace5257 yep and that's the truth .
If conservatives get in power again the unelected prime minister pledges to strip all benefits from millions of people if they don't find work within 12 months, with the help of the work coach, so that's the sick, disabled etc without support, will make homeless people in the millions if the tyrant has his way
Yep blame the foreign to cover up the greed of the boomers. The 2nd homes problem isn't an immigration issue but a hangover from the 70s and 80s when people bought council homes and now leave them empty expecting a big profit sale
The people won't rise up because they have to much to lose. They go to work to support there families and keep a roof over there heads. Look up Samuel Melia and read what happened to him. The sheep have to much to lose.
More taliban here than in Afghanistan and the government are housing them. Won't end well for any of us.
Bringing in the ones their own country doesn’t want!
Don't forget the £187 million this traitorous government gave them in "overseas aid" (i.e bribes),.or the fact the government doesn't recognise them as a terrorist organisation.
They own all the empty 2nd homes 😂🤦♂️
Comment deleted when mentioning the government's £187 million aid to Afghanistan. We can't possibly have FACTS in the comments sections.
The UK shouldn't have invaded Afghanistan then.
Basically the woman who left abusive relationship is homeless whilst her criminal ex is in prison with a roof over his head and 3 square meals a day. Wheres the justice in that? Sums this country up...
Looking after the enemy, Uk's good at that.
I’m guessing drugs and alcohol are involved in her situation. There was no need to leave the home she was in as he’s in prison, they probably wasn’t paying the rent and they got evicted.
Your guessing, you don't know what happened.
@@clairefitzpatrick7183 that’s why I said I’m guessing 🙄
She could work and contribute to the household instead of relying entirely on her companion.
They would rather look after migrants instead of our own ,its insult
some of my mates say we all might as well speak a load of non English,We might get a better future
All part of population replacement
People really need to go and watch the shortfilm "Dinner for few" this sums up exactly what is happening.. The immigrants are the mouse in the short-film, i.e. the distraction..
Why do people keep calling them .migrants in my book if you arrive here without a passport or visa you are an illegal immigrant
We spend 27 percent of GDP on welfare. And 2 percent on defence. We are helping people. But they need to help themselves too
Made my blood boil seeing MY people struggle while all these boat jumpers are getting FREE accommodation and FREE funding, people like me will snap one day and take things into their own hands
Count me in! Our once mighty nation is slowly turning into the like of India and Africa 😢

Mate, it's really bothering me on a daily basis, feels like everyone feels the same. But what can we do?
I am so incensed I can’t watch this. This is an outrage, shame on ALL our politicians to allow this to happen.
No only people themselves let it happen to themselves. It’s really quite sad.
Most of them probably own the holiday lets
@@dottieland7061 I mean they can find accommodation for all these migrants coming to the UK by boat but not for our own people who have fallen on hard times. And don’t get me started on all the benefits illegal migrants get, I have first hand knowledge of this, people would be appalled if they actually knew the truth
I'm 64 and disabled/unable to work. I'm 'lucky' to live in a tiny council flat - but at least I have one, and have a roof over my head. I had to go to the local Pantry today. I don't drive and it's a struggle to get there. I haven't been for over 3 weeks because of the difficulty getting to and from there. It's very good as its £5 for the bus fare, + £5 for £20 worth of food - it's a Godsend. It takes me 4 to 5 hours for the round trip, due to the horrendous bus service (it'd take 40 minutes round trip in a car). I'm always very ill by the time I get home, and am wiped out for the next few days. 90% of the people who go there, are foreigners - they live within walking distance of the church where it's held. Today, they said we could have one extra 'luxury item' as its their 2nd year of being. Open. I was number 18 in the queue. EVERY foreigner came out, with their items, and large tubs of Quality Street chocolates, or 2 boxes of chocolates. When it got to my turn, I was given a small pack of low calorie 5 pack of cereal bars!!! There were tubs of chocolates available, but I was told 'they weren't for me'!!! Other English people had the same as me - the large boxes and tubs were only available to the foreigners!!!!!! I know this isn't anywhere near as awful as being homeless, but I just wanted to point out the truth of how us indigenous people are treated VERY differently to foreigners. It's despicable and latent.
I feel like I am living in a foreign country, yet I am a 50 year old indigenous English born white man. I live in a converted garage and it costs me £900 per month. Take care, stay safe 🙏
to both of you,its very disappointing to hear of your own experiences but in this day and age it's not surprising.its sad times indeed!
I am ashamed of my country I am so sorry that you are treated like this. 😢
That's very saddening to hear, why on earth weren't you 'allowed' chocolate as well?
And most of them get all the good benefits aswell probably go out and beg then go use food banks ,they know how to come over here and take us for everything they can
Are native brits breeding more now than we did in the 80s/90s? I don’t think so! Statistically we are choosing to have smaller families and children much later. So how do we not have enough housing in 2024? Answer 1 - mass unregulated immigration. Answer 2 - local housing being brought by non locals and turned into HMOs or air BNBs for greedy landlords.
3. Spending billions on illegal immigrants.
For Cornwall it's purely the government types, boris Johnson for example own homes here to come down in the summer. I used to live in a village where 80% of the homes were empty year round. When my mum grew up there, the entire place was lived in. Our generation is suffering through the greed of the baby boomers
The white population of this earth peaked in 1930. If you look at the population of major cities they're often lower than they were then even with our foreign friends. London peaked 1939,paris in 1922, Manhattan in 1910, Berlin 1939, my home city is still 50,000 shy of its 350,00 peak. I've never seen anyone go into real detail on this matter. As for the choosing to have less children take a look at the of abortions per year, the culture is the problem not the housing. Personally I think bankruptcy is our only hope.
@@just_em_jayWasting billions on Brexit making the rich richer offshore.
You are right about our population. In fact the world population (surprisingly) is predicted to slow down (which surely is a good thing.) There are so many 2nd (or even 3rd or 4th homes - yes, really - l have lived and worked in the next county along which has a similar problem with housing - l personally knew of people who truly had more '2nd homes' than you could count on one hand.) I really don't think constantly building is necessary - just use the current housing stock better - this programme highlighted this when talking about the problem not being as out of control before masses of homes got bought up in 2020. Places like St.Ives are now bringing in tougher rules about 2nd homes - the rest of these places need to have the 'courage' (and honesty) to do the same.
How can you not blame immigration? Places like London and Birmingham are demographically changed. Where do you think those displaced natives fled too?
A lot of addicts sleeping rough and begging. 3rd world now
@@jonwoodmass2849 sadly it's the only way to get help, clean and sober? back of the queue! 99% of addicts are a lost cause, you can house them, give them money, set them up with a job, they'd still end up back on the street.
@user-sx3pc4dj3r you don't even really get help, unfortunately. Much love ❤️
Immigration has destroyed Britain and British Culture. Our country is very depressing and impossible to be proud of, as it no longer belongs to the British born people. 😢
You should blame your Government and not immigration. Cornwall only have 4.9% of foreign born!! If you go to my country , Portugal you'll see the same issue you are complaining about, where houses have been bought by English , French etc....and residents have no choice but to leave and find somewhere affordable like I did. People don't leave their own country because they like it or want .....they do it because they need to in order to be able to survive! But most of you have no clue because you never had to leave your cushy life .
This really is a complete Disgrace Shameless Government leaving people to Rot and starve to death Spending billions on illegal migrants in hotels This Is Britain's Shame and A black Stain on our Communities It Make Me Cry and my Heart feels so Sad
Why is it the Governments responsibility?
Grab a Sleeping and a tent?! When we can fill hotels with god knows who, from god knows where?! Vile.
It’s wrong on many levels - our government don’t care about our English people on the streets - yet they spend billions each year housing and looking after complete ‘illegal’ immigrants
Well we know who they are and from where, just not their history
Maybe they're drinking and taking drugs because they have nothing else to live for.
Exactly 💯 how many people come home from work and open a bottle or have a 🚬 At the moment most of the country is self medicating 😢 But we expect Our homeless to live in a box and just deal with it😢 I think the Majority ofus would need something to get through a night sleeping rough 😘❤️🙏
If you're living on the street I imagine the need to get off your head and out of the vicious reality - through alcohol or other drugs - is a necessary coping mechanism.
It's just incredible to think that with the right people in charge, this country would be loaded, and not a single person who was capable of working would be out of a job or skint.
I was homeless for two years. People don't realise how many just ended up there through bad times. I've seen many people that are pretty normal people become homeless that are now substance abusers or alcoholics. You try living like that without anything to numb it. Especially through winter. I have my own place again now and I'm moving forward but yeah, I did drugs and drank when I was homeless. It made it so much easier to deal with it. That's the reality of it. At first it's easier to deal with, then it starts to get at you. Then you start breaking down slowly and the harder it gets the more it gets at you making it harder still again. And then you get hit by winter which hits your body. You get through it. Move on. Get on with things. Then another winter starts approaching....
The lack of compassion for those who fall on tough times is depressing and rather bizarre. The current ethos will accept all kinds of criminal or unsavoury behaviour, yet the judgement levied at our most unfortunate is harsh and unforgiving. I may be cynical but I can only assume that support for vulnerable, disenfranchised individuals does not generate enough social media clout. "There, but for the grace of God, go I" Keep on keeping on
😘❤️🙏
@@saraa6040😘❤️🙏
I have been on the streets. What do people expect you to do to get through it. Not drugs for me but wine to get to sleep through the cold and rain. The term broken doesn't come near. I am still broken and no longer trust others. The abuse is unreal, the people trying to be kind was soul destroying they would give food not money. That food was unhealthy and not something my body needed. I obviously accepted gratefully but coins would have meant i could wash my clothes, get a nice meal not eaten off the floor and felt human again. At least for a couple of hours
Yes, I have seen people say they don't want to give money because it's a concern that they will spend on drugs or alcohol. But I think it's an insult for the homeless person to have the ability to make their own decisions in a way. I can see both sides.@@JennyMartinPhoto
how dare you say its a failing on the uk the people were never asked about mass migration hundreds of thousands of families coming here is unsustainable as we have all been screaming at you for years now we reap what they sowed allowing this flood of people
The flood continues. The Home Office printed 1.4 MILLION long-term visas last year, all with the approval of the government. How many more will arrive this year? Meanwhile, most people will vote for open borders Labour. How many more will arrive during their 5 years in office?
Emigration problem… take care of your own people first 🙏🏻
First and only, but we're last and not at all these days
I don’t think enough people realise the head of fury that’s building. Or maybe they think they can just hide from it. Well, they’re going to find out the hard way....
The girl has CP ! Surely she and her family should be at the top of the list . WTH is going on
They're white.
If she got her share of the inheritance in her own name, she would have automatically gone over the savings threshold for benefits. I suspect there is more to that story. There is no way someone with five kids wouldn't have been granted social housing.
boat people 8 million a day.
@@latasha9898 ah that seems reasonable and fair then🙄
Criminalising those who are homeless just shows how evil this government is
I'm not in the UK but in the US. I am 67 years old and disabled. I have what in the UK would be called a pension and my deceased husband's military retirement. I live in an overpriced apartment (flat) for $1450./month. There are no windows to the outside so I never know if it's daylight or dark. My monthly Social Security cheque is $1500. I too am looking into finding an affordable bus or van to renovate into living quarters for one. I don't know how I'll do the renovations by myself at my age and disability but I know I cannot afford to pay to have it done even though I do know how to do it myself. I too live in a beach tourist area where the shop help and food service workers are paid minimum wage. I guess they have partners or family to live with. This was a basically affordable area where you could buy a small home that needed some work for $150K but that has more than doubled in six years. I despair for what the next generation will have to deal with but I am more concerned with getting through the remainder of my life with a roof over my head.
Oh dear, I hope thing's turn out for the best. I'm a bit younger than you & have been extremely lucky to have been housed by my local council. If it were taken from me I don't think I'd survive out there & I worry for my kids. Anyway, I'm sending good vibes to you & hopefully you'll get through. All the best sweety🎉

@@rhondacrosswhite8048 I totally understand that!!! I don't know a lot about how things work in America, but if you are able to get out maybe look at places where one can have meet ups & or gentle exercise groups, etc. I'm sure you know all this & some things are easier said than done. Anyway, thanks for your reply & kind word's too! Best wishes from Sophie. X
Good luck to you. Get out, as best you can manage, and let the light hit your face, and find somewhere safe you can be around others. Don’t give up the roof over your head. In Britain, this is a different problem. We have the council houses for everyone homeless, but they are full of immigrants.
Supply and demand pushes prices up, it's a capitalists dream, profiteering from the dismal situation created by those in power policies. They should build millions of more houses but then they wouldn't be able to charge extortionate rents etc
I live in filey in North Yorkshire , its a very small seaside village but every year we are inundated with holiday makers, we have huge static caravan parks all around us but so many houses now belong to second home owners so they have taken all the house that locals would be able to rent. They rent them out during the summer and they stand empty the rest of the year it's disgraceful we have businesses we own and kids in school etc but can't find a property to rent. The council need to stop people being allowed to buy second homes here , if they want a holiday home buy a bloody static home on the parks which are designed for that and leave our homes alone.
Exactly the same as Windermere
You are absolutely right it’s just wrong on all levels!
They can't stop anyone from buying because they need the proceeds , taxes and so on to pay for other services. They need to build more affordable homes to solve the issue but they don't , that's the main issue .
@@WeloveyouDaveand just about anywhere there is tourism/seaside resorts.
Yes property market and laws are the problem in England. Unfortunately free market capitalist thinking is to blame historically. Change the system to inclusive socialist values?
These people a crazy … has nobody told that all you gotta do is swim out 100 yards into the sea , pretend you can’t speak English , put on a funny accent and say “me no understand, me scared, flee flee bad things” AND then you’ll be handed everything on a plate!!

it's not a lack of housing, it's too many visitors.
They aren't visiting unfortunately
@@moosky7344 I have to be careful what I write, wouldn't want to commit a hate crime.
If the number of people needing homes is greater than the number of available homes, the result is homelessness. The Home Office printed 1.4 MILLION long-term visas last year alone, all approved by the government. And most people will vote for open borders Labour ...
It's a lack pf housing for local population, airbnb and hotels are more profitable than making homes for private or social renting. Cornwall has 96.8% white. So it's clearly not immigrants is it? It's local policy and the pull factors of being a seaside town.
And yet our so called politicians can't even work that one out
Big money from London purchasing lots of houses to rent out in holiday season shouldn't be allowed. I wonder how much is being claimed as expenses for these second homes that are being leased out in holiday season. What chance have locals got??? Affordable housing should be a priority for all councils. UK Boarders should be closed until we have our own house in order. Vetted migrants welcome only after we've sorted our own problems !!!!!
"UK Borders should be closed until we have our own house in order. Vetted migrants welcome only after we've sorted our own problems !!!!!" Even with closed borders it will take many years to build enough housing to sort our problems. Meanwhile, most people will vote for open borders Labour. Things will get only worse, until England's green and pleasant land is part of the 3 r d world.
The charity woman who says 'we havent got many migrants here' - no you haven't because they are all in the 4 star hotels before being given a house above those who have being waiting years for one love thats why!
Nowt as blind as the left wokests.
Everywhere the same, it’s shameful Greetings from Australia
I weep blood over how we treat our own people.
You should see a doctor about that

Same thing happening in Inverness. I used to live in Inverness 5 years ago before moving to Glasgow outskirts area. I was looking forward to move back to Inverness because I love Highlands, but having seen how the rents skyrocketed there I'm pretty much stuck where I am now. So many B&B, airnb, holiday rentals, second homes... whatever is there left to rent has London rents.
I’m so ANGRY!
Wait a minute. Outside of UK so may not understand. But do we not have a Duke and Duchess of Cornwall? And isn’t their £1.2B income from rents in Cornwall? Do they not own most of Cornwall as a private estate? What about the hardships in this documentary and the riches of this Royal family? Are you all liking this?
If the so called Great King Charles is supporting this madness (which he obviously is seeing as he reigns over this country) He has a vast amount of massive properties, Buckingham Palace being one and he cannot possibly need so many rooms. Therefore, why doesn't he section it off and put all the boat people in there, after all, he is not doing anything about them invading his country is he? Why have we even got Royals now, they are not fit for purpose.

We have a housing crisis all over Australia now too. It’s a disgrace! Byron bay would be our equivalent of Cornwall ; plenty of luxury Air bnbs & high end motels. The rents have soared and locals now living in tents behind the beaches and councils come to rip them down every week. Terrible just terrible! Feel for the locals in Cornwall and right across England.
I’m a fulltime wheelchair user, long term sick and homeless. There is a server lack of support and services and If any supoort or services they have so many barriers and hoops to jump through that make it impossible.
If this government wasn't wasting our money on hotel bills for boat people there would be money to help people like this shame on this government for putting the boat people first.
The more they take the more money they get from the un This is never going to stop It’s the global plan being played out right in front of us!!!

The boat people are part of the problem, but there is a much bigger part - the Home Office printed 1.4 MILLION long-term visas last year, with the approval of the government. They arrive at Heathrow. How many more this year? How many more under 5 years of open borders Labour?

Nothing more disturbing than poverty or having no compassion

This is disgraceful. These people are on the streets but foreigners coming in dinghies are put up in hotels. Food, heating and clothes provided.
Lets not forget the prepayed debit cards and mobile phones they are given.
This is why some local councils here in New Zealand introduced an Air B&B tax, to deter landlords in holiday locations from turning all the rentals into air B&B’s.
NZ has a whole separate poverty problem that isn't being faced 😅
B n B tax is the way to go! Common sense.
@rebeccaRYX87, then tourism will be affected. Surely.
Looking at these comments I can see that the British people know exactly what the problem is even though it wasn’t mentioned in the video, illegal immigration and government policy’s that favour this.
No not the main problem. UK has not innovated anything in decades and a large percentage of people used to benefits for living.
This is what our leaders have done bloody great ain’t it what a pit we have become
Same happening in Canada, America, Australia, Ireland, all places where liberals and globalists rule free for all give away to millions of newcomers 😢
As GDP increases the majority get poorer which us why it's a useless measurement of our economic success particularly as it's been artifically boosted by population increase via mass immmigration. When you hear the words 'we need to grow the economy' it simply means we need more immigration to boost GDP but without the necessary investment in infrastructure and housing.
Problem is most of the people banging on about the housing crisis are the same ones calling you a waycist just for having an opinion on immigration. Think long and hard about having kids in this country if you are lower level as your guarantee about being looked after by state is slowly eroding and as we see you will be below some immigrant just arrived in the pecking order of handouts.
It's horrendous in the UK for young folk these days. Looking back to 1991, my partner was pregnant and we got a mortgage on an old house for 22,000 pounds. I was a bus driver on 10,500 pounds a year. The mortgage was 110 pounds a month which was about 15% of my wages. My missus didn't need to work. Nowadays, a bus driver earns 3 times as much as I did in 1991, but house prices are 10-15 times as higher than 1991.... Now that's the problem!
I am a site foreman and we have just completed a 600 home newbuild site, all homes have gone to housing people from two local hotels!

Disgusting how could you let this family with disable kids leave like this.The govt should help first this family who needed help before thinking about immigrants priorities should be for people in this country.
Accommodation costs have spiralled out of control while wages have largely stagnated.
Supply and demand issues, with wage increases causes inflation to rise, all roads lead to too many people wanting things which we can't supply, so the pressure is alleviated by inflation rises to sort the situation out. Millions of less people would fix the problem, but millions arrive annually making the situation much worse anyone with half a brain should be able to see that.
i live in a (formally nice) little uk village, i have found people living in cars and checked on them here before, if i told people they would be shocked but its just in local doctors car park, i see more campers/ mobile homes too, sometimes in a country lane..

I live in a similar tourist town in Australia and we also have a LOT of homeless and van dwellers. My theory is ban that awful awful air BnB. it has stripped so many residences out of the rental market into the holiday lets. SO many stand empty in between the seasons. Makes my blood boil. The flip side is there are other places not in this popular destination with lots of accomodation, but a lot of the young folk affected by this want to live here even though they realistically cant afford it.
And let's ban the ability of rich, absent overseas investors like the Chinese, buying up expensive properties and leaving these houses empty and untenanted, whilst pushing up house prices beyond the reach of the average Australian.
The vastly overpopulated United Kingdom is in such a serious state of decline and decay in so many different areas and this mass invasion of immigrants is contributing detrimentally, negatively and massively to the myriad of problems we as a nation are now confronted with.
Yes, but our politicians call it enrichment.
I think Buckingham palace has a few empty rooms.
Omg the uk prime minister and government should be ashamed of themselves
This level of wholesale mismanagement cannot be accidental!!
The way the government solve these issues is by putting bars across benches and signs saying “no sleeping” then its job done really
It's not just immigrants,that's what they want you to think, what about the massive rents landlords are allowed to charge, the billions of tax money the government has given it's mates,the fact they have almost stopped building council or affordable houses etc
I feel angry and heart broken for British people. why did the gov do that to its people?
Because they don't care
"Why did the gov do that to its people?" Why indeed. And lets not overlook the civil servants at the Home Office.
Build affordable housing and designated rental accommodation which can only be used by locals . They did with the last lot of housing association properties but that was a very long time ago here but it worked . I live outside Preston and they build here non stop, 1000's of homes BUT they're all executive homes and luxury properties and thats just not what is needed !
Yeh because all foreigners are taking all the accomodation !!
Exactly
No help for the British homeless citizens yet no passport no id and viola -4 star hotel + 3 hot meals a day, mobile and money?
Curious isn't it? There must be something wrong, somewhere ...
I worked with the homeless for 4 years and was homeless myself for 10+ years. Nothing has changed in decades, in fact its got a hell of a lot worse. I couldn't carry on in that sector because of the injustice i saw everyday, particularly immigrants being put up in hotels when our own people are literally left to rot on the streets 😔. Trust me when i say that this is only going to get worse, much worse.
How many landlords have sold off the properties out from underneath these renters? How many of these people were kicked out so that the landlords could make them into airbnb's? Airbnb has completely destroyed housing and no one wants to talk about it.
SHAME ON OUR GOVERNMENT FOR NOT LOOKNG AFTER OUR OWN PEOPLE. THE BOAT PEOPLE GET EVERYTHING, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
Ppl are ashamed of their own. Loook at them. Disgrace.
It's not just the boat people. The Home Office printed 1.4 MILLION long-term visas last year alone, all approved by the government that keeps promising to reduce the numbers to the tens of thousands. Open borders Labour will be worse.
Homelessness is a massive problem everywhere. I left the wife last year due to domestic abuse & lived in a Mini for 3 months. I work & earn the most I've ever earned although it's only a bit above minimum wage. I could rent a 1 bed flat where I live for 3 weeks wages. The 4th weeks wage would hopefully cover the extortionate bills & fraudulent claims such as council tax but that's not a given. So, I work 50-60 hours a week to live in a box & rely on a food bank to eat with nothing left for any kind of pleasure whatsoever. Can someone, anyone, make that make sense to me??? What that is, is modern day slavery whith chains you can't see. While I lived in the mini I saved & bought a van which I now live in full time. I still work & it works for me. I love the way I live now but if anything happens to my van, I'll be street homeless, losing everything, again, for the 5th time! I don't do poor me, I just work hard to make my life how I want it to be & try to help others. If you see a homeless person speak to them. Acknowledge they are there ffs. The worst part of street homeless for me, is being invisible to the flag waving virtue signallers. You'll take in a Ukranian from a fake war but can't bare to even look at the homeless guy, sat freezing outside Tesco!
The man with the Bus has done an amazing job. Inspirational. I wish them all the best.
People on the street, if the law to criminalize gets passed should be able to sue the council for not providing basic human necessities.
The Government and people need to to do more..like for god sake, give them free tents and supplies or something, get them out the wind and rain. What about them mobile homes that you can build in about 30 mins. They fold up to so they easy to build and take down.
Dark side? You say it like it's news, the British have always been put last.
I have a solution for this, tell all homeless people to try to get to france, if they get there then they should join the refugee/migrants on the dingys to come back to the UK if they make it back make sure they do not tell authorities they are british and then they should be able to find good accomodation.
won't work. british snobbines cannot be hidden
@@fireat40 you obv aint been around london.
We need a charity, maybe it could be called Care 4 Dover. They would provide dinghies to take the homeless to France.
I went to Leeds recently, have to say what an eye-opener. Many homless people scattered around the city centre. Some sleeping in bus shelters too. A far cry from the city I saw a few years ago.
...there but for the Grace of God! Can happen to ANYONE! Do not become complacent.
😘❤️🙏
Absolutely shocking
What is??
Torquay got to be the worst I've been to so far
Antony Taylors story is absolutely heart breaking.. I'm lucky to own my own house now but I was on the streets from 2006 to 20010...i had to move from Birmingham 30 mile down the road to Worcester to find the help I needed in shelters.
This is 14 years of torys.......disgust for the tories doesn't go far enough
Labour will be worse unfortunately no hope anywhere
Sad thing is Labour want fully open borders 😢😘❤️🙏
@@amyshoneye5455 can't these politicians see what their policies have caused??!!
@@moosky7344 I wholeheartedly believe that Nobody is as inept as Our government is pretending to be 😥 They have done this Purposely 😘❤️🙏
Labour come in get us into det screw it all up then we have enough ... tory's come in with cuts and austerity to fix what Labour did then we have enough..... Then the circle continues It's like this.... You had 2 partners in your life that abuse you. Yous choice is one of the other. So vote reform to try some1 new.
I have been homeless before in the past i used to walk around with a suite case and walk around at night just trying to find somewhere too sleep at night and used get change my clothes in public toilets and wash my face in the sinks and beg everyday for a bite of change i have been thier and done that
My county in Scotland is currently subject to an huge amount of housing development. Council needs this as its the only way to get some social housing built and they get high council tax. Who can afford these new houses? Not me or anyone I know. They are being built on top of mines and on flood plains and our countryside is quickly disappearing. The new home owners seem obsessed with having a view of the nearby hills from their back garden. I guess losing good farmland, disturbing what remains of our ancient woodland , losing open, quiet spaces, putting even more pressure on stretched resources and changing the nature of communities is worth it for a view. Saying that, all of our farms seem to do better from farm shops and glamping than from farming. Its a sad state of affairs. Rents are extortionate and of course oin the rural part of the county it's all holiday accommodation. Air BnB started as a way for people to make income from a spare room, now it' s a nightmare.
How anyone can deny the link between our own citizens being homeless and immigration
They can go to New York and get 5 star hotel with 1000$ debit card per month And US homeless people can move to England and avail the subsidies for illegals.. Win win!
Homeless people in USA can’t afford bus fare let alone airfare to sunny England
Exactly those living there cornwall this is the truth so many walk about blind 😮 and judge 👨⚖️ i pray for all those who's heart ❤️ really wants to change from old circs to new lives with the willingness where support help guidance and most of all the love that should be there for them ..... i know and on many occasions had my own battles that have taken me what i would word hells knocking door. Thank you to all who have the heart ❤️ and passion to be apart of CHANGE in taking the misery away for genuine people who wish hope want & need a bit of help in opening spacific doors just like this one 🚪
The margin the council make from pods and the margins private developers make is the issue.

Stop importing cheap labour. Stop minimum pay. Stop topping up minimum pay with universal credit . Encourage people to work. Reduce the tax burden. We all suffer the same inflation. So the same pay rises in pounds shillings and pence. Not by percent. . The pay gap has to be closer.
When pay rises were given as an amount of money guess who complained! The labour party and unions. £2.50 increase a weeks rent was prohibitive, but £2.50 increase in wages was not enough!
@@Volcano-Man I don't know who brought in pay rises as a percentage. But it is clearly wrong. What the lowest paid get in £sp. Should go to the top. A survey on the growing pay gap was an eye opener. A manager of a medium sized factory earned 50% more than the average factory worker. That was 1970. Today he is over a thousand times the pay of the average worker. When a ceo can earn five million in five years but gets twenty nine million in bonuses. 34 million in five years. Think about it.
The lady that cooks for all those people is a saint. God bless her for the work she does. All this homelessness seems to be a problem everywhere now.
And the Solo Haus will be affordable for only £700 a month I’m sure
