There's no excuse at all. Problem was largely solved before the tories took over and it's about as basic a priority as we can get
They shut all the council run hostels here a few years ago, and there's like 100 drug addicts staying under the Glasgow bridge at the city centre.
And other bridges along the City centre. Atleast 3 died last year with drug issues and more committed suicide. Basically the coast guards are around there every other month dredging the Clyde river.
And there mostly out of sight, it's mental health issues regarding the people on view who have tents and sleeping bags, women too. And it all started with the cutbacks & bedroom taxes. Most if not all the people are from outside Glasgow.
Lucky that the Indian restaurant round the corner feeds them most nights.
I'll be honest Chez, I couldn't imaging how bad London is as you have Atleast x10 the number of homeless.
