i dont know if thats true. there are plenty of cunty people out there that i'm sure would be happy to see people 'less fortunate' then themselves take there chances on the street.
i totally agree with you. its criminal that houses lay empty and people have to sleep rough!

I don't know where you got that idea from. Loads of people in my school year were/are racists.

What about offering to take homeless people into your house? Surely that would be even better than them having to find a house that is potentially in disrepair/collapse to live in?

is that directed at me? i've taken in several friends that have been made homeless over the years. i dont see how you can stand back and watch a mate be put in that situation. its hardly a sensible policy for getting rid of homelessness though...

This. Any mate of mine knows i always have space for them, no matter for how long.... i remember a period where i would almost every night have someone staying round. sometimes that's not an option for people though. like laurent says its hardly a policy that can be universally applied.
furthermore, i would probably prefer to squat than stay at a mates; purely for the aspect of self determination. there is something a big embarrassing about having to stay on a mates sofa; you actually have ownership (temporary but legal) over a squat. Also there are more than enough places that arent in disrepair. no need to choose one that is.
