“You’re a bad man” The dangers of helping the homeless in Liverpool

Helping the homeless doesn’t always go plain sailing in Liverpool. Fights start and I myself am confronted for “not helping”

[@MaliaP702]

I hope that didn’t put you off Kev. You’ve done wonders in highlighting the issue of homelessness and adding all the links to the different charities on your channel. Be proud of yourself for that, many of us would never have know about Liverpool’s issue, especially those of us who live miles away from there. It was only through your channel I found out about so many things and how the people are helping, I’ve been able to take some ideas in to work on what we can do in my city. So thank you for that. It’s not just Liverpool you are helping believe me.

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. 😇

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.

[@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...

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.

The more that you put out there the more the city is coming together to help it's people, and if you had to do what you had to do then so be it luckily for him you didn't need to he showed himself up by looking silly on the camera he was all mouth as well as childish he would of been dropped like a bad habit keep up the good work mate.

Some people just don’t realise when people try to help

[@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

We need a place in the city centre where all the services can come together in one place , Have different floors for each group of homeless people ie drug addicts one floor , young homeless one floor, homeless women one floor , homeless men one floor , mentally ill one floor .That way people can be assessed , given medical care and feel safe . Lots of homeless do not feel safe in the current hostels as many are filled with drug addicts and violent people ,

[@Kevcupo]

Yeah it’s a hard one

[@mrc5941]

Listen to you Kev.... "i'll have to chin him if he starts on me" LOL I don't think I would want to start on you. You make me laugh Kev, but in all seriousness you have to be strong & don't back down to show that you won't be intimidated. You can give as good as you get. Craig is tackling things head on & this shows how tough it is if you are not in a large group.
