I live in a block of flats in the UK. There's homeless people who sleep outside at the rear of the flats every night. They make alot of noise,and they take drugs and fight. They poo and wee just outside my bedroom window. I'm not criticising them. I'm just telling you what they do. If I give them money,they spend it on drugs. If I take my rubbish bags out to bin,they shout swear and ask me to give them more money. When I tell people all this,they think I'm a bad person because I criticising them. But I'm not criticising them. All this is what they do outside my flat. And I'm supposed to feel sorry for them? I'm supposed to feel empathy? You'll be surprised how quickly people's opinions change when it's their door step the homeless are sleeping on,weeing on,pooing on! If you feel sorry for them,go out and find one and let him sleep on your doorstep for a few nights!!!
I hear you buddy, Was in a similar situation in an HMO property. The homeless i knew stuck the money in their arm, and were anti social and used to piss in the corridor's cos their was no lock on the communal front door - but god help you if you criticise them in the real world or the internet, cos you will get jumped on.

Once I had the misfortune of Being homeless I had two choices either a city park bench or a tent in the woods I chose the woods I had to be clever to survive a good example was when winter was right around the corner I needed to find a way to keep my tent warm I scavenged the woods around me looking for something I could use to heat my tent I got lucky I found a few iron pipes in some junk thrown over a hill and the iron pipes where exactly what I needed to heat my tent I already had a shallow fire pit about 6 ft from my tent so I dug a few trenches from the bottom of the fire pit to underneath where my tent was going to be I laid the iron pipe in the trenches and packed clay over the pipes outside inside I covered the pipes with river pebbles I set the tent back up and I made a rope frame over the tent to support sleeping bags and tarps when I started a fire in the fire pit the iron pipes got hot and I had radiant heat coming through the tent floor the bigger the fire the more heat I got and even when the fire went out the pipes would stay hot for a while longer I never had a cold day or night after that
Ingenious 👏👏👏 I've been homeless and lived rough. You do what you have to do for the basics which are food, clothing and shelter. It's amazing how resourceful you can be when it's a matter of survival. You don't have to go full on feral or resort to major criminal activity although l did resort to some acts of petty thievery when times got really really desperate. Thankfully that wasn't very often and didn't directly result in physical harm to other individuals. Being homeless doesn't mean you lose all ability to be resourceful.
> not the junkie chancers Have you learned nothing in your time on TH-cam? So-called 'addicts', or as you referred to them, 'junkies' are not typically 'junkie' by choice. I hope you find yourself in someone else's shoes one day.
Like there is a need, to help others. If a person can't find any purpose in this world, with so many needs, I'd say he's terrible self-centered. Needs to look beyond his own hurt and try to help others. In helping others, that person will help himself. Also in learning how to access help, until not needed anymore.
Great documentary, very informative Holistic help for the homeless, with more support from the government to integrate these human beings back into society is necessary. These people can support the economy! The people which recover from these horrid situations seem so compassionate, you can see it in their eyes. We all have the power to help this situation, even by just giving these people one minute of your time or a simple smile
Thank you to all those dedicated individuals helping people get back on their feet. Giving housing and support is the best model and has been proven to work in other coutries.
Far too many corporation's profiting from Homelessness, to ever fix the problem. A homeless human saved, is a customer lost! An another nail in a charities coffin!

the true number of homeless in uk is wsy way higher id say 1 million folks easy ,the hostels bed n breakfast ,sofa surfing ,temp accodamation shared houseing plus the folks on the streets plus teenagers comeing out of care homes growing every year
The governments are the number one reason why there is homelessness in the first place. To ask them to solve it is like asking barber do you need a shave.
@@MasterJammer Well its easy. Just follow the money? Who makes a profit from homelessness. What kind of social programs, NGO's, politicians etc. Drug dealers. And see what kind of ideologies are though in universities. Yeah, truest me goverment is not your friend, it created the problem so people are dependent on it. If goverment were to actually do its job or providing conditions for people to succeed, it would be no homelessness and also no need for big goverment. So why would they want that. This way they make a profit from homelessness and make themselves needed. The more people depend on welfare and social programs the more politicians have power and make money. And they make backroom deal with companies that build housing, provide various social services etc. Its a big business. You remove goverment or have one that is small and only works on creating conditions for people to succeed, and you would have virtually no homelessness. As long as people think goverment is the answer to the problem, the goverment has all the incentive in the world to keep the problem alive, because it keeps them in power.
The same problem in U.S. In both countries powerholders still live in colonial era and do everything for retaing an already lost power. The people are deprived of most essential rights because it cost enormously to be worlds police and owner when it had already become multipolar.
A problem with homelessness, - but hundreds of thousands of migrants and refugees given homes and places to stay immediately on arrival, including, but not exclusive to, four star hotels and free six bedroomed houses to Indians. It doesn't wash with me I'm afraid, there are hundreds of office blocks purchased by Councils for investment purposes, paid for by taxpayers money, left empty, only to loose value - when they could have been converted into self catering units for the homeless. Not to mention the millions of pounds being funelled into offshore accounts. We can spend money on Wars, we can spend money on immigrants, but we cannot provide good quality low cost accomodation for our own under privilidged. - Baffling and mind-boggling in the same breath. - Change is coming.
They gave me an uninhabitable home and said if I didnt take it. Id make myself intentionally homeless, it has no hot water, central heating and the windows dont close causing damp and mold spores everywhere, the walls were holey aswell so im STUCK
Need to stop housing being bought by investors as second homes buy to let’s ect, it drives up housing costs and becomes unaffordable for low earners and the homeless community! It’s housing greed that makes housing unaffordable! I couldn’t afford to rent or buy and it’s more cost effective to buy a tent and live isolated
Nobody in a country as wealthy as the UK should end up homeless. Instead of averting your eyes, buy the homeless a cup of tea or a sandwich, toiletries or fruit.
When you leave people homeless longterm, criminal behavioyr inevitably follows because it becomes a fight for survival for them. So more social support is the answer.
The govt.have abandoned their people and seem to give the impression that they are resigned to the fact that they are all leaving their seats and moving on. The country has become too dysfunctional now and there is nothing a govt can do about it. Its the broken promise after 1945 that while we should be thriving U.S . and co mispent the tax paying worker and many will be left in the lurch
Poor men, more help needs to be given to help people be more independent and not reliant on anyone but themselves, this stops a false illusion that someone will come and resuce you should SHTF. Be your own bank and the best version of yourself mentally, physically and financially.
Homelessness is so normalized in Canada that nothing shocks me anymore. It's fascinating to watch the left claim to care but support globalism at the same time.
Huh? The " left" as you say is typically in favor of more robust social safety net programs, rent controls, addiction programs, expanded mental health services etc; while the " right" supports criminalizing homelessness. What does " globalism" ( whatever you mean by this term that you borrow from right-wing talking points) have to do with this issue? Make sense please. Homelessness seems be be a growing problem in all western societies, regardless of whether the government is led by liberal or conservative policies. Currently, the UK has a conservative prime minister by the way, though that is likely to change in the near future.
The increase in Rent is more than 2 peoples Incomes. I don't understand how people whom own private property can continue on this upward Trent. They may end up Bankrupt with no tenants. They do not have money to upkeep the property either.
So, he had 4 or 5 expensive cars but zero savings....I truly do not understand stoopid people like them...I started saving money from the 1st paycheck onwards I ever got after university. Going from being rich and educated and having a well-paying job to homeless within a few months after losing a job is mindboggling to me! Do these people never plan and budget for more than 1 week? I can see why poor people with very low qualification and thus low pay and not much spare money for saving some, can get homeless after just a few months when losing a flipping-burgers-job, but HOW do qualified and well-paid people do this?
Don't forget that helping the homeless also IS an industry. Organizations make their money by helping vulnerable people. Don't know how it is in the UK, but in germany, where I currently live, there is much corruption. Both our foster children needed some help, when they got out at about 18 years old. Both were forced triple the amount of help on them, which really did not help at all. That's how the organizations got their profits. But of course it is nothing else than bugging those young adults and than squandering tax money.
@@user-wr8cp9bs1m they don't know what they talking I have had been homeless and destitute for 20 years they got no experience , I was Status as destitute documented and registered in Singapore , staying in Welfare home as a destitute and living without shelter now I bought my apartment without any loan if anyone talk about how to solve homelessness they are talking as they have mental illness 🧐 I'm South East Asia God 🤪

Been homeless more times than I can remember.. I never ask for help . I go rural Officially Homeless at the minute.. I don't care I am used to it I work, I don't take drugs , I don't drink beers. I probably could get a proper home but tbh I enjoy the freedom. I currently live off grid in a cabin Im building Imo I don't take help I feel more homeless people than me are in more needy. -17c is the lowest temperature I have slept outside in. I survived
Biggest cause of homelessness is the price of housing and rents and landlords being able to just put the rent up without reason and kick people out for no reason
I was homless for 9 month.. The secret…. Find a person, how help you.. You cant doe it alone…trust me.. Some one, how gifs you a Adres… thats it.. I had a home for my self, in 6 WEEKS.. I still love that one person and i have help, 2 men…. Humor, will save the world.. start with a joke…
do these program/ government people actually think it's ok for homeless to beg and drink in public??? how is that fair to hard working people trying to get to work, shop, visiting eateries,etc- we won't bring up the safety and crime, threatening people for money, or the health issues like exposing residents and renters to their diseases infected poo on the streets, stairs. It's very simple, don't break the laws and you won't get in trouble, and won't lose your apartment. It's about being responsible.

Everyone applauds the UK/ EUROPEAN system and trashes the USA system. The main difference in the USA is that we have the worst, the average and the best in the world. You just have to fight for it or choose how bad you want it. People have moved from NY to FL and lived in trailer homes for $200.00 a month in rent. Even at $7.00 an hour most people in the USA could afford that … even if it meant going out and collecting tin cans at $0.05 per can. (Also, Catholic charities can give you one time help of $1,000.00-$2,500 to buy that trailer. Or the thousands of other not for profits). And you can choose to climb up from that. Or take a $60,000.00 job - no education, no training and do one of those oil jobs. If you are willing to part from the USA or your family and temporarily leave the country - and the $60,000.00 is tax free!! It depends on how bad you want something in the USA. If you are willing to move to another state, stop abusing alcohol, stop abusing drugs, ask your 15 year old kids to help out by getting a part time job. Moving to a college that has free day care at the college. The private system in the USA seems much better than UK or Europe. But you must make sacrifices and learn about all of these programs on your own. But thanks to the internet, this is a bit easier. It is also easier to find housing in the USA and people willing to take in foreigners - something private English and Europeans won’t do as readily as in the USA. Most citizens don’t care if you are a citizen; as long as your money is green in the USA. In Europe and in England it is the EXACT OPPOSITE. Even if you come from a wealthy nation and are White, it is hard to get a citizen to lease you a flat. So the USA has the worst in the developed world, but we also have average and the best in the world. We have quadruple the number of non profits in Europe and the UK, the hardest part is finding out about them and the willingness to do what is necessary. When I saw that some places in the UK only give out emergency food 3 times in a year to people … I was like WTF!! In the USA most people get a MINIMUM of 12 times a year!!! And even if you cannot prove you are in need, most churches give you food two months before they insist you bring proof. I saw these videos of people jumping through hoops to get a voucher BEFORE even being allowed to go to the church in the first place. In the USA, you just show up at the church/ food pantry.
It does depend on your family or circle of friends. I wouldn’t imagine it is a easy as that. Some situations are very complicated and some people just don’t want to live with family or friends they prefer to live alone and don’t want to be a burden on them.

@@guff9567 I guarantee about 97.6% of homeless would prefer a "vile building" where they can feel safe, comfortable and human.
No it didn't. There's always been scummy druggy wastrels. The only thing that will fix it is to round them up and k*** the bastids!
@@guff9567 You can stay outside if you want, but I bet the majority of people need that security and shelter.
Brilliant performance ❤
Very interesting thankyou OU.🙂
the housing speculation problem.
suppose they can allways sell The Big Issue outside the highstreet banks and sell the data. digital work can solve the problem IT training 4 many.
The govt do actually deeply care about human rights and fair treatment for SOME of the population...................
Where have you been living in the last 10y's !???😳 a dessert island, a nunnery, etc. Of course they DON'T CARE . distrust the governments!.
They expect the tenants to pay for repairs.
Biggest cause of homelessness is the price of housing and rents and landlords being able to just put the rent up without reason and kick people out for no reason
돈이 많은 집에서 태어난자는 돈걱정없이 살고 돈 없는 집에서 태어난자는 하루하루를 걱정하고 불안감을 가지며 산다 이게 맞는건가?
It depends if they are left the money. If they leave the money for them yes, but if not then no.
Yes you have a point about poor familys, if not able to leave money in later life to loved ones, but a wealthy person does have that option.
I was homless for 9 month..
The secret…. Find a person, how help you..
You cant doe it alone…trust me..
Some one, how gifs you a Adres… thats it..
I had a home for my self, in 6 WEEKS..
I still love that one person and i have help, 2 men….
Humor, will save the world.. start with a joke…
do these program/ government people actually think it's ok for homeless to beg and drink in public??? how is that fair to hard working people trying to get to work, shop, visiting eateries,etc- we won't bring up the safety and crime, threatening people for money, or the health issues like exposing residents and renters to their diseases infected poo on the streets, stairs. It's very simple, don't break the laws and you won't get in trouble, and won't lose your apartment. It's about being responsible.
Why should we care about cold blooded psychos in business suits having two seconds of feeling uncomfortable being near a homeless person. Get over it.

VACANT. VACATION. HOMES.
Been homeless many times and 95% approx are no good keep away give em nothing. 1990 -2015
Everyone applauds the UK/ EUROPEAN system and trashes the USA system.
The main difference in the USA is that we have the worst, the average and the best in the world. You just have to fight for it or choose how bad you want it. People have moved from NY to FL and lived in trailer homes for $200.00 a month in rent. Even at $7.00 an hour most people in the USA could afford that … even if it meant going out and collecting tin cans at $0.05 per can. (Also, Catholic charities can give you one time help of $1,000.00-$2,500 to buy that trailer. Or the thousands of other not for profits). And you can choose to climb up from that. Or take a $60,000.00 job - no education, no training and do one of those oil jobs. If you are willing to part from the USA or your family and temporarily leave the country - and the $60,000.00 is tax free!!
It depends on how bad you want something in the USA. If you are willing to move to another state, stop abusing alcohol, stop abusing drugs, ask your 15 year old kids to help out by getting a part time job. Moving to a college that has free day care at the college.
The private system in the USA seems much better than UK or Europe. But you must make sacrifices and learn about all of these programs on your own. But thanks to the internet, this is a bit easier.
It is also easier to find housing in the USA and people willing to take in foreigners - something private English and Europeans won’t do as readily as in the USA. Most citizens don’t care if you are a citizen; as long as your money is green in the USA. In Europe and in England it is the EXACT OPPOSITE. Even if you come from a wealthy nation and are White, it is hard to get a citizen to lease you a flat.
So the USA has the worst in the developed world, but we also have average and the best in the world. We have quadruple the number of non profits in Europe and the UK, the hardest part is finding out about them and the willingness to do what is necessary. When I saw that some places in the UK only give out emergency food 3 times in a year to people … I was like WTF!! In the USA most people get a MINIMUM of 12 times a year!!! And even if you cannot prove you are in need, most churches give you food two months before they insist you bring proof. I saw these videos of people jumping through hoops to get a voucher BEFORE even being allowed to go to the church in the first place. In the USA, you just show up at the church/ food pantry.
Can't they stay with friend or family until it gets better.
Not all family will take a homeless relation..depends what family u have
It does depend on your family or circle of friends. I wouldn’t imagine it is a easy as that. Some situations are very complicated and some people just don’t want to live with family or friends they prefer to live alone and don’t want to be a burden on them.
Deal wit addiction issues 1st saying to ppl 20 years on methadone,try asking em about derr damn life u think ppl end up on drugs wit messed up psychology because derr lifes are normal,like come on! , drugs and homelessness is a massive cause of mental health adversity,all the suicides go look at derr history i guarantee you, drugs,prison,homelessness,mental health are a factor in 90% of cases, kinda detecting a pattern here🎉

DRUGS DRUGS DRUGS: Nothing but DRUGS
Academic waffle get rid of deadwood in councils use moneyto help homeless theres lots could be done.
These poor people are Jesus's children .Jesus was homeless I learned .when you see them you are looking at Jesus .how you treat them is how you would treat Jesus.would treat them the way the Pharisees treated Jesus.or would you be compassionate help out.
You need to read the BIBLE KJV ✝️ as you are WRONG
Only christians B .A. are God's children.
Is the UK,a so-called Christian nation ??
Now that's a good question 😢
No thankfully.
No, but like American the Christians we do have are really in name only they don't follow the teachings of Jesus. But we are closer than Americans imo
You people talk to much.
I havent ever seen a black homeless person in Britain , only white English men and a few white English women , why is that ?!
Neither have l .
That’s a gray point. I am in the US and I think I have only seen one or two black unhoused as they are now calling it. Almost all Caucasian.
I know lots of people in council flats nott working in two bedroom flats li ving on there own should be mandatory to use spare room there's an answer especially in winter.
Asians tend to have stronger family structures and look after one another. I can't speak for the black folk. White folk tend to be quite individualistic which has it's advantages and disadvantages.
No more room for our people let another hotel full joris bonson and paki sunak!
