Suella Braverman seeks to curb use of tents by homeless people - saying it is 'a lifestyle choice'
Unless action is taken the home secretary warns the UK will follow the likes of San Francisco and Los Angeles in the US where "weak policies have led to an explosion of crime, drug taking, and squalor".

Why not just go whole way spray homeless people with a hose and leave them to freeze to death /s
I wouldn't be surprised if she puts forward plans to relocate them to a hidden corner of the UK, barge ship, or something like that so long as it's out of sight. Then use it as an arguing statistic that they've reduced homeless by x%
This was actually a thing under Tory-run Westminster Council in the late 80s/early 90s.
Monstrous.
How did the UK end up with such a bunch of evil fascists in control?
If you think about it, the reason this all happened is because the singular fear of Corbyn as PM handed Boris a stonking majority to implant his team of loonies.
For example imagine the alternative history whereby David Miliband became the leader of the opposition instead of Ed. We might not have got the 2015 Tory government that was so fond of referendums? Or if Andy King in da Naaaaarth Burnham succeeded Ed in 2015, we might have had a more coherent defence of remaining in the EU from Labour and more of a challenge after the (non binding) result.
Something to think about...
I doubt anyone chooses to sleep in a tent outside m&s if there were decent alternatives, not hostels where you risk you minimal possessions or even safety. Make the shelters better and better prospects. If the people are here illegally then use that avenue, if they are legal then we should help those less fortunate not leave them to freeze
Yes, risk theft starvation and murder because tents are neat.
Next on the list: hats.
She said it was for some people. I’m not a Tory voter but manipulating what people say isn’t any better just because it’s not Trump doing it.
That.plausible deniability is how they pass stupid, short sighted, punitive, malicious law
"my house got robbed"
"well some people like having their house robbed"
"I don't"
"tough, we can't help you because some people like it"
Yes that is what she said, but that doesn't mean that is how it'll be used. Once that law is in place, they will use it to attack any homeless they feel like. This law is not in any way necessary. They are trying to fix a symptom instead of fixing the root problem.
