        I sympathise with the position of the homeless, but 4 in 10, they must be smoking drugs.

        : Who owns these homes? Many are in private rental market & landlords receiving housing benefit from tenants ?

        The government tell us what they are doing to help but were not asked why they let it get this bad on the first place.

        Or if you are an immigrant Muslim you can have a fully equipped modern home + if your family is large. Two homes knocked into one.

        Just another self promoting Survey. Their expectations are far too high. We need more micro homes affordable by size in towns.
