haha thanks Phil, i need to get out more i think it feels like forever as well

As Wanted said fast improvements in rough sleepers could be gained with better funding for Mental Health Services and Substance Misuse. The biggest problem i am seeing day in day out is people being found fit for work while still under the mental health services but they are totally unfit for work, quite simply they have all their benefits removed from them including disability living allowance or PIP and also their ESA (support group) allowance which then leaves them with no right to claim full housing benefit or council Tax. = Homeless with serious MH Issues. The goverment wants to cut down on the above benefits and Increase the number of people in work which i understand, but removing the above benefits from really poorly people is putting a lot of people onto the streets and pushing people into despair and often suicide. What gets me is the goverment trys to promote better understanding of mental health Issues but with the other hand they are putting these very people onto the streets, they are corrupt as hell and so is Channel 4 Telivision for promoting hate towards people who are claiming benefits, they often only show the people who are taking the p1ss out of the benefits system and not the seriously ill. i promise not to post anymore on this. Rant Over LOL

its totally wrong but thats the way they work. Fanks lol, will you tell my Psychiatrist that I dont blame you for that, faulty towers / only fools and horses makes far more sense than the news lol. anyway i better go to bed you lot, night.

Thats the same stance the Goverment try to flog everyone, manipulating hate rather than a soluntion to help them in need. I dont know how they can carry out an acurate survery of who is homeless / illegal, a lot of people are hidden out of view of the public or squatting in buildings. i could just imagine the BBC walking down the street with a clip board ticking boxes.

Thanks for the link Cotswoldman, i cant view it at the moment. Good call Wanted.

I dont believe Television Surveys, Tv's are used as propaganda to make people fall in line with goverment belief's and decisions. The BBC is renowned for only reporting what they want too, I would imagine different parts of the country does vary though.

I have voted yes, they are part of boating to lots of people. and me too soon.

Ow my Thats a big Cat

Thanks for letting us know everyone, thats really amazing how no one got killed. I bet some people are counting their lucky stars right now. pitty about the doggy though. lets hope they dont fall over too. This is a must see lol

Does anyone know if their was any lives lost in the Crane Accident ? It was horrid to watch, poor buggers.

Glad they were not hurt. crikey.

Thats good to know thanks, i did wonder this. Yer that hit the nail on the head their.

Thats me buggered then lol neither 16 of fit

This is turning into chuckle vision sketch

perhaps athy, but was he asked if he minded lol

No worrys Pquinn I guess some subjects are difficult to talk about on forums, theirs lots of different views. I will leave the thread alone now, maybe its too close to my heart strings.

Most of the whole thread was taken over by imigration, blaming imigration for the shortage of housing. The thread was about rough sleepers on canals, most of the people who are rough sleepers are not their because of housing shortages, they are their because their means of housing support were removed when they needed it most due to issues such as substance misuse / Mental Health Issues and many other issues.. The Canal is a public place, i dont want to get into where and when photo's should not be taken but common sense should be relevant in the case of taking a picture of a guy who is down on his luck and sleeping on cobbles. Taking the picture is one thing but putting on the internet Decent humanity/respect towards a fellow man is much better than rules and regulations.

It was my personal opinion from past experiences, everyone has had their say i just said my view on it. It was not by any means to provoke any war, it is a discussion thats all.
