Perspective. An important word that more people really need to learn about. No matter how bad you may feel your life is and how tough things are for you now, there is always someone out there who is suffering more than you. It reminds me of an old saying: "I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet." Perspective. This country needs far more people like you, mate.

Give them a "interview" .. see what their stories are, the fakes are easy to spot. Again, i think the majority of genuine homeless will avoid these places (or at least i would) to be alone. Begging is the main reason for being on the high footfall areas. The only reason for cash is addiction, most homeless can get food from charities etc. The hard part is getting help 😅

This is about people who are housed but go into town begging, professional beggars. Like the gang of women who are dropped off about half 7 in the morning by blokes in cars who now occupy most of the decent pitches between Liverpool and Southport or the fella on Bold Street who used to go out clubbing, clean shaven and in a suit on a Saturday night. They're not talking about those poor souls who live in a tent village at the side of Clayton Square on Charlotte Street. Most of them are addicted to drink or drugs but are homeless and when I used to get the 79 from there in the freezing winter, they were there with some not even in tents, just in sleeping bags.

Got to always be ready with your cam, Kev, you never know what you going to see. At least you got a picture in the end.📸 As for this fake homeless situation, just do what you need to do & present it to the council or police to see what they can do. It's not your job to do their work, but that's of course if they actually give a monkey's about it & I bet you will be told that you were in the wrong for doing it. The council should fight against all that is wrong & the police should enforce the laws, the council applies for, to deal with it..... you know what i'm going to say now..... but of course they won't, because they don't care enough about the city they represent. This makes me mad, & I don't even live there.
