On the same day as rents hit a record high. Housing in London is completely broken. I walk past 5 large empty office buildings on my walk to my local tube station. If we were to attempt to repurpose these buildings for humans to use we would be attacked by an army of cops and bailiffs. This army of cops and bailiffs entire purpose is to maintain the power and wealth of landlords.
Not really surprising that a country which is unable to supply housing for people that live here, is also unable to give housing to thousands of people turning up. It’s almost like everyone that comes here isn’t a massive tax payer boosting the economy and we should probably have stricter oversight in how manage our boarder? Oh no that’s crazy let’s let another 600k come over
Lived around Victoria Park for the last 8 years, first time seeing homeless people in there with tents or just sleeping rough. Can’t see how will this get better?

Isn’t a refugee already homeless?
