Here in Dublin in Ireland we have homeless like we've never seen, the government has taken in refugees and opened up closed buildings put beds in them and moved all these refuges into them all men all fighting age , Here I live is a new housing estate a 9 out of 10 people moved into these new homes are from everywhere else but Ireland while our own Irish are homeless families with children young babies even,, left to find somewhere to sleep for the night, young mothers having to spend the night in police stations were its safe with their babies and these men from god knows where giving a safe bed for months at a time even years while our own die out on the streets , I have nothing against people from outside Ireland living here but there housed before our mothers, I've been homeless as a younger man I wouldn't want it for anyone let alone a young mother with babies, my kids grow up with the first coloured families housed I love them all and have very good memories of my boys playing with there boys , but its not fair house us at the same time not them before us no together as our hearts tell us , and the drugs ? The kids at young school level need to be shown the horror of drug addiction were closing the gate after the horse has ran down the road.

[@TerenceSquires]

It's so difficult to know who is truely homeless here in London. There are so many migrant gangs that have pushed out genuine homeless people from the area! I rarely use cash so don't give out much anyway. Since 2011, I started a business where a percentage of what sold goes to charities. I donate mostly to several children’s charities; NSPCC, Make A Wish, Starlight etc, but also to Shelter around x-mas. Also have a personal eBay account where I sell personal items for charity too. So, keep doing what you do mate. 😇

[@garethwhite9865]

That lad spitting at people is the reason why people living on the streets refuse to stay in hostels, and feel safer sleeping on the street, that lad probably bullys vulnerable service users... The lad needs to be dealt with before he seriously hurts someone.. Complete bully.

That was my point in the video mate, a lot of homeless turn down the hostels because they’re not safe

[@glennoc8585]

[@gthbtn]

@@glennoc8585 the city has gone downhill terribly... I used to come up from the south coast for work and it was great, about 20 years ago... I was moved here in 2014 to get me off the streets as a lot of councils used to send their homeless to Birmingham and it was grim. It has got much worse since then. I actively avoid the place now, unless changing trains at New Street and even then I'd rather take a longer trip to Wolverhampton to change there. You don't have to do the walk under the Bullring past all the deprivation then. I know the homeless system, having gone through it and it should be leading the country in eradicating the issue but it's just "charities" scamming the system...

[@DaveCoakley]

Before anyone accuses me of being heartless I’ve done a lot of support work in mental health and I know how easy it is to end up on the streets….however…. I am now of the opinion that Liverpool City Centre needs to be cleared of street sleeping camps and beggars. Where do they go? Well in my opinion those that want help should get a mental health assessment, and supported living if they are assessed as requiring it. For those that prefer to be on the street or have substance abuse issues, I believe they should be detained against their own will, for their own good. Sorry if that offends.

[@rayely66]

It doesn't offend DAVE , but m8 there's a lot more to it than just detaining people against there will , people go to gaol (jail)

[@Kevcupo]

It’s an open forum and everyone is entitled to their opinion. Two reasons why the homeless gravitate to the city centre. 1. High footfall of pedestrians he may part with their money. 2. They just feel safer than staying in a suburb, CCTV everywhere and access to emergency services if needed

[@charlesedwards7214]

Doesn't offend mate because you're just not aware. The mental health services are almost just a front. Aside from being severely underfunded, therapists and psychologist just don't have the knowledge nor the resources to help a good... I'm gonna say 80% of people with legitimate mental health. The problem with going through the system is at the start - like pretty much everyone not facing mental illness - you're optimistic - I've got a diagnosis, YES! Now they can help me. There's even approved medication. Sanity here I come! ..... And then year after year that diminishes. You realise theyve given it a name but have no idea how to help or relate. That the medication is just legal smack, zombify you and they say hey look it cured his aggression. The therapist is very compassionate, until the hours up. Your want is idealistic and unobtainable. It's be marvellous if it could be. Unfortunately reality won't comply,
