I think additional funding should be spent getting the homeless back on their feet to contribute to society.
@9N8JR8J7mos7MO
Government should try to help homeless people by providing jobs so that they can fend for themselves.
@9XFDYGT2mos2MO
No, instead of simply providing care and service for homeless people, housing and employment programmes should be introduced to eliminate homelessness altogether
@9X4Q2922mos2MO
Yes, but also increase addiction services. Also deport foreign homeless people back to their country of origin.
@9W9QX3V2mos2MO
Yes, but pass tougher laws on those sleeping rough on private property and begging etc. They will recieve community service and recieve food and drink from the Trussell trust food banks, in a central soup kitchen/hall.
@9RKQQV25mos5MO
Only if they also increase the spending on dealing drug usage and mental illness problems with homeless population.
@9QNG6JR6mos6MO
no but make long term smart plans for them ie help them more to get jobs and off the street otherwise they will just keep the money and do drugs
@9QLQ7PD 6mos6MO
Yes until they actually make proper affordable housing as people are ending up homless due too housing not actually being affordable and them never being able to get on a housing ladder and therefore renting becoming the only option but its far too expensive for their salary.
