Thread Name: BS: Homelessness a Personal Choice?
Subject: RE: BS: Homelessness a Personal Choice?
"It is then very difficult to complain about the problems of homelessness if there is no way for the 'establishment' to distinguish between the two types of homelessness (choice/circumstance). "
No problem at all Nigel - counting the increasing number of people who have been made homeless for economic reasons might be a good start
You can start with Thatcher's campaign to turn homes into investments with that one
This is a disgusting poloy by the right to wash its hands of the problems that are being caused by a failing, greed-based system
The blaming of the victims has now had a gruesome new aspect added to it, the girlfriend of the Ukip leader has described Grenfell Tower as "a nest of illegal immigrants"
Now your political football is really on the field.
The next logical step is to describe the growing hospital crisis as being 'a life choice' caused by bad diets and smoking (two of the mainstays of our economy - fatty foods and tobacco).
