Hi Scots I agree that if u are a single male then yes the council will turn you away as not being priority need. I see it every day as a street outreach worker. As the weather has turned below zero we are able to supply B and B payed for by the council but as soon as the temp rises to zero or above they have to leave. Anyway I'm not going to bang on about this subject anymore because other's seem I obviously don't know my job or the current street culture. But on a serious note Scots if you ever find yourself facing homelessness again let me know and I will do my best to help. |

Let's look at the main reason for the stupid numbers of homeless people on our streets. Way back when, mentally ill people, including soldiers who were suffering from psychological effects of the traumas that they had faced, were considered a needy bunch and were looked after well in society. (Well is a comparative term of course.) The problem was that cost so much money that the MPs could see a time when their expense claims might be reduced to help compensate for this "waste" of money. They couldn't just abandon them so they created a system called "care in the community". A way of dumping mentally ill and trtaumatised people out on the streets and spromising that they would be looked after by specialists who would be trained to work with street people. Once the laws were passed... and the centres closed... the funding was withdrawn and we found that we had a veritable army of homeless people on the streets... many of whom have neither the mental capacity to care for themselves nor the intelligence to fin funding where ot might be available. These people, including the soldiers, are of no further use to the government and so they are abandoned. Moved on every night from shop doorway to bridge and again to a different doorway seeking shelter wherever they can find it. When a bright light invades their safe dark space they are forced to hide and cower deeper into the shadows and to scavenge for whatever food or acts of goodwill they can muster. Strangeley this doesn't sound a million miles away from the life that some soldiers have faced when trying to survive behind enemy lines... except that this new unnamed army have no loved ones to return to, no government to provide funds. There is one direct comparison though... Both armies are equally well equipped. |

I agree that if u are a single male then yes the council will turn you away as not being priority need. i actually came back to scotland soul,after leaving here to join army 30 years ago. i was too proud to ask my friends in london for help. even in scotland,you have to have a local connection in order to achieve priority homeless status!.... after 28 days,the local council will give you there assesment,and in my case,tried to refer me back to london,i got a solicitor involved,threatning to sue the council for breach of my human rights....it worked!,local council have agreed to give me 1 bedroom furnished flat after 9 months of living in hostel. horrible thing is,ive seen at least 20 people with no local connection to area,or scotland,being housed before mee!... in london there are very few flats...... id much rather have stayed in london,id lived there for 14 years,but i wasnt prepared to rough sleep in order to get a roof over my head. |

We should be building more council houses and ending the right to buy which has reduced the availability of council housing, then it wouldn't need to be rationed. I don't know why Labour didn't scrap right to buy when it had the chance to. Alternatively the government could build a new council house for every one which is sold. |
