It's all about how you define it. Seasick Steve was homeless... "except homeless didn't exist back then" as he put it.

Homeless should be defined as someone who has no place to live that is legally inhabitable under the definitions of law specificed for Landlords and Tennants acts.

ie not a risk to health, reasonably maintained, access to heating, hot and cold water and in a decent state of repair, internally and externally.

If you are a tennant that is. Landlord and Tennants act doesn't apply unless you are one.

You could choose to live in a tent if you wanted, which shouldn't make you homeless if you choose to do that or similar.

Who actually chooses to specifically live in a tent maybe: what five or six people.

Just send all the fu-king migrants back or shoot them, then there will be no more homeless as it will free up untold houses,

Also it will give us our construction work back again, also the migrants wont be hanging around B&Q begging for OUR work

over 50000 families are living in temporary accomodation according to this.

Having been in this situation with my family (stepmum, dad and brother)living in a single room bedsit (sharing kitchen and bathroom facilities with 6 other bedsits full of alcoholics and addicts whilst waiting to be housed when I was in my early teens I can tell you it ain't very nice. Fortunately twas only for 4 months.

Well done Dave.

Didn't think Dave was in power then?

I'm glad your family are sorted it couldn't have been nice but as your post illustrates, this is nothing new.

I am sure that someone like you, far more politically astute than ,I know it is far more complicated than any individual government of whatever shade, being responsible.

If I had my way, we would simply separate all the good people (ie, people who sound their 't's properly; freeholders of property worth more htan 40 shillings a year; people who don't wear sandals or display their shoulders in public) from the bad people (ie, the homeless, the unemployed, teachers with ill-thought-out left-wing views).

The bad people could live underground, shovelling the disabled and elderly into the furnace to provide energy for the world above the ground.

And the select few bad people who behaved well and worked hard would be promoted and could work above ground as personal servants for the good people.

And they say right-wing people aren't compassionate!

Hard to argue against his simple logic though isn't it?

Last year our population grew by over 500,000 of which 300,000 were migrants.

We simply cannot cope with the housing demand that unfettered immigration causes.

That isn't logic, unless by Logic you mean ignorant hatred. What a prize pillock , I feel sorry for Adolf (Or Colin as he calls himself)if that's how he really thinks.

Well put sir. Not an ironic smilie in sight either.

By way of comment though, for admission to the SS, the NAZIs required evidence of German ancestry traced back to some arbitrary date in the 1700s [?]. I would wonder if you could pass that test in terms of your Englishness. If so, then well done you. You are a rare one in what has always been a racial melting pot of a country.

Indeed, if you look at a significant number of people around you when you are next watching a match or grabbing a pint in your local [including ethnically white people with London accents who properly place "White British" on any questionnaire] , remember that a significantly high minority [including me] are the product of immigration.

In other words, you have a hatred that covers a significant % of the population around you including, I strongly suspect, many of your own friends.

Want to solve the housing shortage? all it will take is for a government to have the balls to tell the building conglomerates to f*** off & look into alternative means of housing.

Tiny homes (get past alot of planning permission because they sit on trailers) Cost on average £8k up
[Link]
Narrow boats (more residential moorings) £10k up
Pre Fabricated homes - remember them?
Holiday properties - just make them residential.
Container homes - Cheap and easy to outfit
[Link]
Train Carriages - Incredibly popular after the war.
[Link]

Everyone has the right to be able to buy their own home be that a stately mansion or a humble hut, this obsession with bricks & mortar forcing everyone into either spending hundreds of thousands on a bedsit & being a slave to a mortgage company for 30 years or being at the mercy of a landlord who fleeces you for your entire wage a month is unhealthy.

All of my examples are incredibly cheap to build & keep warm in winter, they wont stand for hundreds of years but thats not really the point of them & the wastage once they need scrapping is minimal anyway.

It would enable first time buyers to own their own property for as little as £10,000, rent on these properties could be capped to keep costs down, this would also have the effect of reducing costs on the bricks & mortar market as demand is reduced bringing down costs for people looking to move up the ladder.

Housing crisis solved in under a year, easy.

What a weird comment Colin.

Overpopulation is a global problem. China had it right with the one-child policy, they say there would be nearly 500m extra people on the planet had they not enforced it. That is untenable.

Sorry to replace one extreme view with another...
