Invisible People What can we read from that fact? I think it is clear what governments and their version of free market are really about. You do an awesome job, giving voice to folks in that situation. Sadly ,you are gonna have many examples more every new day :(
Thankyouuuu sooo much for helping these people by giving then a voice...ive been there myself mostly due to addiction and alcoholism and I'd STILL be there is it wasnt for my mom and a bigger desire to get off of everything than the desire to continue that lifestyle. I care. And i try to be kind and help as many people as i can with food or clothing and numbers or even just talking to them...homeless or not.
Invisible People when Ed was talking about homelessness he took the words right out of my mouth. What an articulate man. He's seeing no way out and I have to agree with him. This was a great interview with a good man who has lost HOPE.
I have only just discovered this channel and I have found these interviews eye opening to say the least. I have been that person "with their headphones in, within my own little bubble ... only caring about myself", I can't believe how naive I have been to homelessness. Your channel has inspired me to do something about it. I've never really helped anyone in my life but I vow to change that.
Cardiff is my home city, so I've been there many, many times. It's a beautiful city but - there are LOTS of homeless, guarantee you'll pass by at least 1 on every corner. Yet this city decides to spend 30k on a Christmas tree, in front of the castle, 20 seconds away from probably the most habited place by the homeless in the city centre street. Oh, and how much was the royal wedding again?
@@ginam6691 it's not that simple. There are many different circumstances. Eg, Some homeless people choose to be so. Recently in Cardiff a man with a home chose to live on the streets, as he felt he knew that way of life more. He died a few weeks back on the main high street. But had a home. There are more than 90 beds available at the local charity, but they aren't full every night, as people give out tents and sleeping bags. They're choosing not to go to outreach centres. Awkward situation for all.
The queen and her family are descendants from Lucifer. Direct descendants from Vlad the and paler. They are not human. They sacrifice babies and drink their blood and eat their flesh. Plenty of eyewitness testimony that saw this when they were young and now they're grown. They looked at humans like cattle/sheep. They could care less. The best thing you guys could do is get rid of your queen and that fake royal family. There's absolutely nothing royal about any of them.
@@onmyway9749 Firstly, what makes them royal is the fact that they are declared so. Which renders your last point incredulous. Secondly, why would we get rid of them when it works for us financially? Something like 15% of the money they earn for the UK is given to them to fund their expenses. Not always the costs of renovations for palaces though, much like Westminster / big Ben atm... Lastly, so what if they're eating babies? It means less people on this shite planet for me to WORRY about.

I'm a single girl in this world in Wales i have a dog 8 years old I'm homeless and living here there everywhere stay positive I know it's hard to do . Wash windows paint walls knock and it will answer . And never give up babe . This system is hard to live in get out of it is my answer and try every path bar drugs and drink you will find your purpose x
...you are correct: could offer to cut grass/paint fences in Spring/Summer, sweep-up leaves in Autumn and clear snow/ice in Winter, etc. the problem be if residents feel threatened/unsafe/scared that a seemingly homeless guy is knockin on doors offering to do light chores in exchange for a little money or a food-parcel. there should be method to create "micro-employment/work" for individuals who find themselves in such circumstances
Vincent de Guard we will never be able to change the elite that enslave us the system is made to keep the poor poor or dying and the rich richer . I have tried living the system and it got me in such a depression I nearly succeeded in topping myself now I live off the land as much as possible and strive for freedom . I maybe homeless but it's the greatest freedom I have ever come across . And the most powerful control of my own life , how many can say that x
Keep on making the invisible visible . I have been homeless and My heart is never away from them. I do what I can when I can please do the same all of you. Most of you are closer to being in this mans place then you think. Then what if its you what would you wish for? The compassion of others is what. Trust me
@Isle Wild Roamer I think this is the world nations problem now . Imagine 1% own the 71% of the world wealth and the rest of the 99 % has to share among them 21%, homelessness is slowly a norm to the most advance countries and later same to the development countries ....
Yes it is true,and with the coldness of this world getting crueler,we have to try and do our best for others like you say.May you never be homeless again- God Bless You!

He is actually a nice looking man, well spoken, sensitive and caring. Not sure what his circumstance is but I hope he can get a room and rest and clean up so he can get himself situated to look for employment or whatever joy he can find from life.
Ed has said so painfully well the vicious circumstances of being down and out. It rips one’s heart out. I think our part begins by _always_ giving to the destitute out there-every time, stop and give a bit of money and conversation from the heart. 💔
He said he hasn't eaten for 2 days, I can't imagine because if I don't eat for 5 hours I feel sick. He is so handsome and wish his life could change for him and gets all the help he needs just needs help. These countries don't try to help there own.
I'm like you, if I don't eat I get sick. I have been homeless, I have had no money for food, I've gone a couple days with nothing. It really really sucks
Whats life worth. When you strip away all that entertainment devices and occupations, it reveals the very basics of human beings. eat, sleep, staying alive. it really should be in the self understanding of every civilized country, that these very basics are provided. always.
I've been wondering, how do you feel whenever an interview is over and you have to leave? It must be hard both for you and the person you just interviewed.
Here is another thing, laundry is super expensive on the street. If you have a washer and dryer, you take it for granted to have clean clothes. If you need to use a laundromat, one load of wash can be like $3.50. So after one day your socks stink, but you have to wait before doing laundry to get a full load even. I guess you could wash socks in a sink, and then hang them on your backpack or in a bush somewhere. It is rough to live rough like they call homeless living there.
Yes I lived in one room for one year and hand washed nearly everything to save money and it was HARD WORK, otherwise it would cost £17.50 P.W AT THE laundrette. It was difficult drying too. I now highly appreciate my hired automatic washer and balcony drying line more than my T.V. It must be extra hard for homeless to do their laundry it's so expensive .
I recently moved and it cost me nearly $8 to do two loads of wash this week. It is just so expensive. I think maybe laundry should be subsidized and the prices capped so people can afford to have clean clothes and not stink. It is a major health concern not only for the poor person but the public at large. They have foodstamps, how about laundry stamps?
How come there's so little help there for people? I want to give but I'm disabled and don't get enough for my needs. I'll try harder to share, I'll do better. Poor gentleman.

Living in Uk is one of my biggest dreams, but whenever I see those cruel ones who avoid helping homeless people I feel anxious. In Turkey, everyone helps those beggars and homeless, unlike Uk.
Nobody cares about the homeless and beggars here in Finland, either. Only the government and charity organizations care and thanks to them Finland is the only country in Europe where homelessness is decreasing. I wouldnt be too surprised if it turns out that Finland is the only 1st world country on this planet where homelessness is decreasing.
If you think it's bad in the UK, you should see the US. People beat, rape and murder homeless people here on a nightly basis. Cops bulldoze their encampments, destroy their belongings and shuffle them around like trash. It's like something out of a Charles Dickens novel.
The beggars and homeless are coming form countries like Turkey to the UK and are being given free housing, money every month etc. We need to help our own instead of outsiders.
Why are interest rates higher for people whom have a past history of unsteady payments and lower "credit score" -- It is because there is a system that was build to enslave and slaughter, if you do not live for and by the owner /farmers rules. "Royalty" are farmers of humans, to be feed off by sweat equity, if you do not provide for the farmer you are sacrificed (their business is human slavery and human sacrifice).
The big problem is that common people nowadays are really scared to give money somebody from the street because there are many scammers as well. I think the best would be to support organisations which should help homeless people. Whole society should support these kind of organisations but they should be also checked in order to avoid scams as well...I once heard about a person who worked in a similiar organisation and took a lot of money for herself ...
You can't judge someone because they are homeless. What hurts more than anything is people judging you for things that are out of your control. There are plenty of people with jobs who are scammers, who you hire in good faith and they rip you off. Being homeless has nothing to do with being a scammer. You either are willing to help the desperate and needy or you aren't. I think a lot of people like to make excuses why they don't help. They feed their greed instead of those in need. That is a miserable way to live.
I am not judging homeless people, I am just writing the opinions that I heard from many "common" people, in Poland there are many people asking for money just for the alcohol, in the past there were also many gypsies using their children for begging, generally I think it is up to individual whether he/she will help on the street but this is not enough anyway. We should support organisations which should help.
impresjaaa maybe if u wood give them a job and a avoidable place to live then maybe the wood not be so desperate and wood not think of using the money u give them for alcohol or drugs instead of always just giving money and food I know that good too but why don't y'all get them a place and don't stop till u do and keep intuch with them to show that the have someone that cares about them then the see that there is still good in the world
Me? I am not able to give a job to anybody. I am not an entrepreneur or a rich person.I do not really understand your point. I do understand that people are drinking and taking drugs from various reasons. In my country you have free medical insurance and you can go on a rehab.
@@MattEssex33 and what are you doing to help these people? I guess nothing. Do something instead of being here criticizing people who are doing it, even if it's just a little help.
@@MattEssex33 they want money for drugs, they get benefits paid to them every two weeks and there's places to get free food every day in Cardiff. There's a lot of people in the huggard centre on floor space, most the people sleeping rough choose to do it than go there. If they don't stay there they can still use it as an address so they can claim benefits
@@princessskies3083 Apologies however you sound like you have no idea what you are talking about. Please do not assume that homeless people will use the money for drugs. Also if they did so what? If it helps them get through. People do not usually choose this life, it usually chooses them and they are left to deal with that.
I live near Cardiff and the homelessness is so bad. Not that it makes it right but you can’t walk for longer than 5 mins without being asked for money, it does get frustrating, it’s not that you don’t want to help it’s just there are so many to help. The uk government doesn’t do much to tackle the issue
What he said here is so true all over..with the incredible number of people in the streets the violence is much more common. The streets are basically outdoor prisons..nothing more!
You are right sir, it is not always the case. I am so sorry! My heart breaks. I truly, honestly would love to help you and certain others. I vow if I am ever in a situation to be able to help I will.
I will say this years ago I was my mums carer and we ended up in a homeless hostel in Barry. My mum had multiple illnesses. Barry council after a bit ,instead of helping us forced us to leave the hostel and go to a BandB in Newport. Even the hostel manager told the council they shouldn't do it because of seriousn of my mums illnesses. The day after we got forced to go to Newport my mum ended up in hospital. Then a month after we got forced to move to Newport we got a letter of Barry council saying that because we were out of their area they were no longer support us and that a month later they would stop paying for us. We went to Newport council and they said because it was Barry council that had moved us to Newport we were not their problem.
I came very close to being homeless at one point. I realised fast that no-one is gong to help and the Uk doesn't give a damn about anyone, least of all homeless people. It was a very scary situation. I got out of the UK and went to Asia, you can actually make money here and at least it's warm. I have rebuilt myself with. a lot of work and effort, the difference is in Asia you are allowed to help yourself, in the Uk the laws prevent you from helping yourself.
SOme may not be aware, but in Wales there have been campaigns to try and remove homeless people from the city centres, this has been countered with public anger. However, in the Welsh press, there have been articles placed advising the public that many begging are not genuine, but in fact have houses and are choosing begging as an easy option. These moves serve to kill empathy for those who are on the streets because they have fallen on hard times. As the gentleman in the video rightly says, the circumstances are far worse for single men- I hope life gets better for him.
I' sorry your going through this. I to know what its like to be homeless wondering where I will sleep and and will I have a meal again. I remember when I found a place that feed the homeless in my city I cried because I had a chance to eat. But I'm with you in spirit. I know you want get this, but I love you man. Hang in there.
Thanks for keeping these souls visible. Even those on drugs are worth helping. Prayers for him & all homeless people & animals. Does UK have FEMA camps & round homeless up? I give what I can to a local homeless shelter for people & also a national animal group. Please do what you can...even a little bit helps.
ice9 Thanks for being so caring !. I love you’re attitude of “ even those on drugs are worth helping “, too many people are quick to say “it’s they’re fault for using drugs” , which is just a lazy argument because they don’t want to help ! Nobody wakes up one day and decides to become a drug addict, there’s always a reason for why they started using drugs to escape from reality. The world would be a much better place if people were more like you instead of being judgmental and greedy !
I think it's a crying shame to put a homeless person in jail because they are begging for money or they are sleeping on the ground. How can an officer even have the heart to write a person a damn ticket in that situation? I tell ya this world just doesn't give a royal F about anybody anymore. Everyone is money hungry, greedy, selfish, arrogant, and uncaring AF!! We do have some people that care but it's very few. This man doing these videos is a saint and you can tell he cares. He knows what these poor people are going through and he was once there. He got out but he still tries helping those less fortunate he doesn't forget where he was and how it was and I thank him so much for being the way he is. He has a heart, God bless you sir and the many souls you have interviewed.
Firsts ones to blame are his wife and his best friend. Besides all his suffering with the homelessness, he has to deal with the feeling of being betrayed and longing his kids.
He said PARTNER, not WIFE, in case you didn't notice. That's another problem with society--Lack of Marriage. People SCREW around without MORALS. HAD he been MARRIED, there would have been LAWS to prevent SOME of that from occurring--such as the residence which BOTH would be entitled to. Possibly related to that is that IF he had a job, WHY couldn't he arrange temporary housing somewhere and STILL go to work? I am not criticizing him, just trying to envisage the situation. There is the possibility that he wasn't even employed while he was with his 'PARTNER", not WIFE. Maybe she was the one working. IF he had been married, and faultless in behaviour, and SHE (the WIFE) would have been working, then SHE would OWE HIM money if he had been the stay-at-home dad. He was most likely NOT married, since he said PARTNER. Most likely, he didn't have a job before being 'kicked out', and so had nothing to support him and no way to pay for alternate housing. Please learn to COMPREHEND things before making JUDGEMENTS and PUTTING BLAME on people. THere is INSUFFICIENT information to blame anyone right now.
It seems you don't watch many "Invisible People" videos. There are many full time working men sleeping rough; there is that man who worked for 25 years at General Motors and is homeless now; that woman who worked for 35 years, had an accident and now is disable sleeping rough. You are the one who doesn't have enough elements to judge Ed.
Maura L: Exactly.. this isn't the forum for politically correct Justice warriors. We don't have to agree w/each other to have a productive conversation. FYI.. a partner can be a significant other of any gender of which you aren't married. One would conclude a "wife" b/c of the kids & best friend aspect, but whatever the situation.. It's all good!
Christie A: "First ones to blame are his wife and his best friend' is what I was replying to. I think THAT needs an attitude check more than anything else. Productive conversations are for literate people in this type of forum, which is reading and writing. Comprehension is missing in many cases. This missing comprehension leads to possibly INCORRECT CONCLUSIONS such as blaming a most-likely NON EXISTENT 'WIFE" and friend. (If he was married, I have never heard of a married person call his wife 'partner' instead of 'wife'. MOST married people call each other husband and wife, which is why I commented on the PERILS and RISKS of being only a 'partner', which confers about ZERO rights to the other because it is not a LEGAL, BINDING contract, like a MARRIAGE is.) IF people want assurances in life, be it professional or even personal, there need to be contracts. Otherwise, PROCEED at your own risk. This guy apparently did. (It's like people swimming in a pool without a lifeguard---swim at your own risk. Yes, marriage is a contract, and that piece of paper is a LIFEGUARD when the other has a row and wants to kick you out--guess what, he or she can't because there is an agreement..Now, divorce is a procedure that takes time, and BOTH parties have to be legal about it.) He is now paying the price. Go ask his QUEEN MOTHER in WINDSOR for help, since he apparently also doesn't have FAMILY to take him in.
Sadly it doesn't get any easier if you are a single female like myself, the council only help single women if you're pregnant/have children and/or you have drug/alcohol addiction. Doesn't matter what you have done for the country or society, the government will let you rot in the gutter with no remorse.
To make an update to this: Wales have now added people sleeping rough, including men, to their priority need lists for housing… before, men were not classed as being as vulnerable as a woman. Hopefully this means more men on the streets being given emergency or temporary accommodation.
when someone leaves you for another man it fucks you up and some of us never did get over it. it's painful. what's the answer there isn't one .a good friend if your very lucky take care tony
Dear Sir, do u have any of these ppl on Go Fund Me or something.....l could help w small daily money.....lve got barely enough but much more than homeless, GOD BLESS YOUR HELPFUL SOUL
Another excellent interview my friend. Homeless in the UK don't seem to get much help, winter shelters do pop up, mainly run by church and charity from what I've seen. Stay safe buddy 👍
Vincent de Guard yep keeps the fuckers out the news we can't be having said councils looking bad... Austerity by the tories = no funding for them and even if they had it they don't and won't build house's. Not to mention the property's they do have are invested through year's of council cost cutting.
Lots of them are scammers and people do get suspicious. I love this channel, because it shows the other side. He seems like a smart guy, hope he can get out the streets fast.
It may be illegal to bet. But here in NY it's also illegal to just wander around with a sign not even asking for money or help. Actually it's not illegal but cops will tell u leave cause I say so and if u don't or challenge them...they will right u up for soliciting or some other bs charge. It's so sad. So very sad. People want to help those that are down but others call the police cause they don't want to see it or feel shitty for not helping...it's really messed up.
This is happening all over the place including America. It’s a disgrace and sinful that we have homeless people on our streets. We allowed ourselves to ignore them, treat them like criminals, and brush them aside. This can literally happen to any of us and that’s the truth!!! The face of homeless people have changed and we need to do something or else there’s going to be two class left, the rich and the poor.
So sad to see this just wish more people who are a lot more fortunate with a lot more money could donate a small amount each month to help the homeless in there area not all are drug addicts and alcoholics some people just want a warm meal and a roof over there head pray for this guy he seems like a really good human being 🙌🙌
I do not want to unfair... not in the slightest. But in all those seven years has he never been able to get a job, just enough to have a roof over his head? Just enough not to have to beg? Not to go hungry for two days?
I live in Wales. I just wanna say it's a lot harder for homeless people here. Colder, and ESPECIALLY in Cardiff there's a whole lot of stabbing and stealing and killing than I have ever seen. It gets to -8°c here. So people get sick. People sleep on cold concrete floor, at least la is warm
It is a terrible cruel truth that society does not take responsibility for the homeless. Worse there are ordinary people who want to give them the capital punishment: no money...no food...no place to sleep. If human rights work for the incoming immigrants, why not for the homeless?. The British Empire is rich enough to help these people. His highness Prince Harry protects the wounded from war, those with youth trauma's...but not the homeless guys. It is true what this man said: we are poisened by prejudices.
Razdo van Arbit, it's not just a matter of money. For example, if you give money to a drug addict what will they spend the money on? Drugs of course. This may sort of help them in the short-term but it does nothing for their chances of long-term survival.
You are right. I had the same thoughts about the homeless of LA Downtown. Terrible circumstances and as a dark lady said if you are depended you will not get help. You are criminal as she said. If you some of them help with money they will buy drugs. Give them a house and after some time they cannot afford the rent. Their social life is strongly connected with the drugsscene where they find their friends. How to stop criminality where many drugaddicts are victim of
So sad - we really need to fix the broking mental health systems so we all can get the help and support we need.- build so much more social housing ect
It sounds like homelessness in the UK is the same as it is on the Eastern seaboard of the United States. In the warmer regions with blissfully low humidity, people seem at least to get a sufficient amount of sleep,even if their other less critical basic needs are difficult to meet. In locations where the weather seems to range from cold and damp to hot and humid with only a handful of comfortable weather days per year, painful sleep deprivation appears to be the number 1 problem. That's why I want so much to start a "sleep hospital" business similar to what's available in the airports of some Asian countries. The difference is that my sleep cubes/rooms would be priced at something like 3 dollars per hour, which in 2019 would easily cover all overhead expenses, even in ridiculously overpriced regions like the eastern US and the UK where I think a business like that would be most needed. I think it could be partially funded by sponsors, as well as super-transparent crowd sourcing where even donors who wish to remain anonymous could be assigned identifying numbers instead. I think people would be more inclined to want to donate to or invest in a business where every last dollar is accounted for and publicly listed, unlike all the amazing disappearing tax dollars and donations to certain entirely self-serving nonprofits.
How could i send this guy in cardiff some money? I have a checking account here in the states. I'm disabled myself and have no car so WU is out of the question. Thanks

@@rickmelin4926 No shame. It's just that there are probably people closer to you in similar situations who are more accessible and could use your help. He was just pointing that out.

I maybe homeless but it's the greatest freedom I have ever come across . And the most powerful control of my own life , how many can say that x

Keep on making the invisible visible . I have been homeless and My heart is never away from them. I do what I can when I can please do the same all of you. Most of you are closer to being in this mans place then you think. Then what if its you what would you wish for? The compassion of others is what. Trust me
yes anyone can lose money.
☹
@Isle Wild Roamer I think this is the world nations problem now . Imagine 1% own the 71% of the world wealth and the rest of the 99 % has to share among them 21%, homelessness is slowly a norm to the most advance countries and later same to the development countries ....
Yes it is true,and with the coldness of this world getting crueler,we have to try and do our best for others like you say.May you never be homeless again- God Bless You!

Your comment is the truth =)
What is 51 project
I hope he's okay 2 years later. Seems like an honest guy who fell on rough times and sees no way out.
You should do these interviews over a meal you buy for them.
I know this is a year old comment, just replying for readers;
After every interview he takes them for food.
I feel like ideally they should receive a cut of the revenue from the video
Nah he would rather make them feel worse about themselves then they already do so he can maximize the views, so cold
@@craigy4630 he claims he helps them. We never actually see it.
@@calebb7012 click on 'show more' at the video description, and stop making assumptions.
OMG...I want to help this man. It’s disgusting how the homeless are treated. It makes me sick to the stomach. 😔
He is in Cardiff .
@@maylai6549 my god, give this man an award, genius, how could I ever think of that.
@@flinggonza5688 Are you staying in Cardiff ? Can you help us to find Andy Davies ? Tell him we want to help him too ? 🙏🙏🙏
He is actually a nice looking man, well spoken, sensitive and caring. Not sure what his circumstance is but I hope he can get a room and rest and clean up so he can get himself situated to look for employment or whatever joy he can find from life.
Was thinking the same myself, get cleaned up he would have lots of women offering him a home
Thank you for buying him some socks (and whatever else you bought him).
Doesn't make any sense to criminalize homelessness, instead rent them an apt for 6 months and give them a job cleaning up the streets. Easy.
Its drugs alot off them don't want help
Ed has said so painfully well the vicious circumstances of being down and out. It rips one’s heart out. I think our part begins by _always_ giving to the destitute out there-every time, stop and give a bit of money and conversation from the heart. 💔
He said he hasn't eaten for 2 days, I can't imagine because if I don't eat for 5 hours I feel sick. He is so handsome and wish his life could change for him and gets all the help he needs just needs help. These countries don't try to help there own.
I'm like you, if I don't eat I get sick. I have been homeless, I have had no money for food, I've gone a couple days with nothing. It really really sucks
So, so sad... my heart goes out for these people... you are in my prayers...
Whats life worth. When you strip away all that entertainment devices and occupations, it reveals the very basics of human beings. eat, sleep, staying alive. it really should be in the self understanding of every civilized country, that these very basics are provided. always.
Yes indeed
My heart goes out to this sweet man down on his luck. I wish there was more help for homeless everywhere.
Just watched a load of your USA videos then I see one from just down the road in my country . Thank you for these they are a real eye opener
A society that lives on individualism will destroy itself
Facebook creates an impersonal society. I.e. text messages etc

I've been wondering, how do you feel whenever an interview is over and you have to leave? It must be hard both for you and the person you just interviewed.
I'm. Wondering too. awkward to leave him hungry after all
@@ninabaranda2718 In this case I wonder if he bought him a meal?
STEVIE Down South after every interview he takes them for food.
Nina Baranda : atleast the guy interviewing is creating awareness he is doing something by giving them an opportunity to be heard!
Here is another thing, laundry is super expensive on the street. If you have a washer and dryer, you take it for granted to have clean clothes. If you need to use a laundromat, one load of wash can be like $3.50. So after one day your socks stink, but you have to wait before doing laundry to get a full load even. I guess you could wash socks in a sink, and then hang them on your backpack or in a bush somewhere. It is rough to live rough like they call homeless living there.
good point
yeah cuz mainteance for washing machines,tablets or whatever they are, electricity and water doesn't cost anything lol...
Yes I lived in one room for one year and hand washed nearly everything to save money and it was HARD WORK, otherwise it would cost £17.50 P.W AT THE laundrette. It was difficult drying too. I now highly appreciate my hired automatic washer and balcony drying line more than my T.V. It must be extra hard for homeless to do their laundry it's so expensive .
I recently moved and it cost me nearly $8 to do two loads of wash this week. It is just so expensive. I think maybe laundry should be subsidized and the prices capped so people can afford to have clean clothes and not stink. It is a major health concern not only for the poor person but the public at large. They have foodstamps, how about laundry stamps?
Wash the socks in a lake or creek
How come there's so little help there for people? I want to give but I'm disabled and don't get enough for my needs. I'll try harder to share, I'll do better. Poor gentleman.

Thanks for your kind words
So sad. I hope he gets some help. Hugs and Prayers for him 🙏💓
I feel unbelievably sorry for him. I am not so sure about the rules of your interviews... but I hope he got a tenner, he looks very hungry. And combination of no sleep, hunger and cold...
He said it all. Everybody walks around with their headphones in their own little bubble..... soooo true!!!
Living in Uk is one of my biggest dreams, but whenever I see those cruel ones who avoid helping homeless people I feel anxious. In Turkey, everyone helps those beggars and homeless, unlike Uk.
Same thing here in the United States. It's even worse. Nobody cares.
MMMMMMMMM Turkey.
Nobody cares about the homeless and beggars here in Finland, either. Only the government and charity organizations care and thanks to them Finland is the only country in Europe where homelessness is decreasing. I wouldnt be too surprised if it turns out that Finland is the only 1st world country on this planet where homelessness is decreasing.
If you think it's bad in the UK, you should see the US. People beat, rape and murder homeless people here on a nightly basis. Cops bulldoze their encampments, destroy their belongings and shuffle them around like trash. It's like something out of a Charles Dickens novel.
The beggars and homeless are coming form countries like Turkey to the UK and are being given free housing, money every month etc. We need to help our own instead of outsiders.
He looks so tired
how do you pay a fine if you are homeless?
Exactly
here in america everyday your incarserated the taxpayer pays your debt off
Why are interest rates higher for people whom have a past history of unsteady payments and lower "credit score" -- It is because there is a system that was build to enslave and slaughter, if you do not live for and by the owner /farmers rules. "Royalty" are farmers of humans, to be feed off by sweat equity, if you do not provide for the farmer you are sacrificed (their business is human slavery and human sacrifice).
It sounds like this law is created to bully and step on the homeless peoples right ?
May Lai life under a Tory government. Half the country is living in poverty.
The big problem is that common people nowadays are really scared to give money somebody from the street because there are many scammers as well. I think the best would be to support organisations which should help homeless people. Whole society should support these kind of organisations but they should be also checked in order to avoid scams as well...I once heard about a person who worked in a similiar organisation and took a lot of money for herself ...
You can't judge someone because they are homeless. What hurts more than anything is people judging you for things that are out of your control. There are plenty of people with jobs who are scammers, who you hire in good faith and they rip you off. Being homeless has nothing to do with being a scammer. You either are willing to help the desperate and needy or you aren't. I think a lot of people like to make excuses why they don't help. They feed their greed instead of those in need. That is a miserable way to live.
I am not judging homeless people, I am just writing the opinions that I heard from many "common" people, in Poland there are many people asking for money just for the alcohol, in the past there were also many gypsies using their children for begging, generally I think it is up to individual whether he/she will help on the street but this is not enough anyway. We should support organisations which should help.
impresjaaa maybe if u wood give them a job and a avoidable place to live then maybe the wood not be so desperate and wood not think of using the money u give them for alcohol or drugs instead of always just giving money and food I know that good too but why don't y'all get them a place and don't stop till u do and keep intuch with them to show that the have someone that cares about them then the see that there is still good in the world
Me? I am not able to give a job to anybody. I am not an entrepreneur or a rich person.I do not really understand your point. I do understand that people are drinking and taking drugs from various reasons. In my country you have free medical insurance and you can go on a rehab.
Yeah we have to pay medical bills in the u.s., it's pretty rough. How would that change how you looked at it?
I find something very noble and gentemanish in mister Ed. I really do hope that he found his way out...
tragic barbaric circumstances to live under; my heart goes out to you Ed. Wish things get better somehow.
This interviewer better buy him something to eat at least!!
@@myview2543 But thats not what they want. They need money, not sandwiches.
Matt its the least he could do, MYviewMYview is helping in the smallest way he can. I think it’s better than doing nothing.
@@MattEssex33 and what are you doing to help these people? I guess nothing. Do something instead of being here criticizing people who are doing it, even if it's just a little help.
@@MattEssex33 they want money for drugs, they get benefits paid to them every two weeks and there's places to get free food every day in Cardiff. There's a lot of people in the huggard centre on floor space, most the people sleeping rough choose to do it than go there. If they don't stay there they can still use it as an address so they can claim benefits
@@princessskies3083 Apologies however you sound like you have no idea what you are talking about. Please do not assume that homeless people will use the money for drugs. Also if they did so what? If it helps them get through. People do not usually choose this life, it usually chooses them and they are left to deal with that.
I live near Cardiff and the homelessness is so bad. Not that it makes it right but you can’t walk for longer than 5 mins without being asked for money, it does get frustrating, it’s not that you don’t want to help it’s just there are so many to help. The uk government doesn’t do much to tackle the issue
Stay strong man. Keep up the good work putting faces to stories Invisible People
😢 my heart is breaking watching these interviews
What he said here is so true all over..with the incredible number of people in the streets the violence is much more common. The streets are basically outdoor prisons..nothing more!
tim mc A very descriptive analogy..
You are right sir, it is not always the case. I am so sorry! My heart breaks. I truly, honestly would love to help you and certain others. I vow if I am ever in a situation to be able to help I will.

I will say this years ago I was my mums carer and we ended up in a homeless hostel in Barry. My mum had multiple illnesses. Barry council after a bit ,instead of helping us forced us to leave the hostel and go to a BandB in Newport. Even the hostel manager told the council they shouldn't do it because of seriousn of my mums illnesses. The day after we got forced to go to Newport my mum ended up in hospital. Then a month after we got forced to move to Newport we got a letter of Barry council saying that because we were out of their area they were no longer support us and that a month later they would stop paying for us. We went to Newport council and they said because it was Barry council that had moved us to Newport we were not their problem.
I came very close to being homeless at one point. I realised fast that no-one is gong to help and the Uk doesn't give a damn about anyone, least of all homeless people. It was a very scary situation. I got out of the UK and went to Asia, you can actually make money here and at least it's warm. I have rebuilt myself with. a lot of work and effort, the difference is in Asia you are allowed to help yourself, in the Uk the laws prevent you from helping yourself.
Which country is good in Asia?
What country? Asia is big, man.
@You You You sound like a hater ? Or much like a stupid cyberbully ?
SOme may not be aware, but in Wales there have been campaigns to try and remove homeless people from the city centres, this has been countered with public anger. However, in the Welsh press, there have been articles placed advising the public that many begging are not genuine, but in fact have houses and are choosing begging as an easy option. These moves serve to kill empathy for those who are on the streets because they have fallen on hard times. As the gentleman in the video rightly says, the circumstances are far worse for single men- I hope life gets better for him.
Thanks for sharing. Every person I met on the streets was homeless.
this blessed child of God... off the grid here. it's hard. MUCH LOVE!
I' sorry your going through this. I to know what its like to be homeless wondering where I will sleep and and will I have a meal again. I remember when I found a place that feed the homeless in my city I cried because I had a chance to eat. But I'm with you in spirit. I know you want get this, but I love you man. Hang in there.
I've lived in Wales and it's sad that 4000 applications for a cashier's job is the norm there
Bless ED I hope he's doing OK poor fella he needs help!
Thanks for keeping these souls visible. Even those on drugs are worth helping. Prayers for him & all homeless people & animals. Does UK have FEMA camps & round homeless up? I give what I can to a local homeless shelter for people & also a national animal group. Please do what you can...even a little bit helps.
ice9 Thanks for being so caring !. I love you’re attitude of “ even those on drugs are worth helping “, too many people are quick to say “it’s they’re fault for using drugs” , which is just a lazy argument because they don’t want to help ! Nobody wakes up one day and decides to become a drug addict, there’s always a reason for why they started using drugs to escape from reality. The world would be a much better place if people were more like you instead of being judgmental and greedy !
I think it's a crying shame to put a homeless person in jail because they are begging for money or they are sleeping on the ground. How can an officer even have the heart to write a person a damn ticket in that situation? I tell ya this world just doesn't give a royal F about anybody anymore. Everyone is money hungry, greedy, selfish, arrogant, and uncaring AF!! We do have some people that care but it's very few. This man doing these videos is a saint and you can tell he cares. He knows what these poor people are going through and he was once there. He got out but he still tries helping those less fortunate he doesn't forget where he was and how it was and I thank him so much for being the way he is. He has a heart, God bless you sir and the many souls you have interviewed.
"criminalization of homelessness". Very powerful phrase...
Dont give up man youve got this, it wont last forever ❤
God bless this man..maybe he could try a charity or a church to help him!
Firsts ones to blame are his wife and his best friend. Besides all his suffering with the homelessness, he has to deal with the feeling of being betrayed and longing his kids.
He said PARTNER, not WIFE, in case you didn't notice. That's another problem with society--Lack of Marriage. People SCREW around without MORALS. HAD he been MARRIED, there would have been LAWS to prevent SOME of that from occurring--such as the residence which BOTH would be entitled to.
Possibly related to that is that IF he had a job, WHY couldn't he arrange temporary housing somewhere and STILL go to work? I am not criticizing him, just trying to envisage the situation. There is the possibility that he wasn't even employed while he was with his 'PARTNER", not WIFE. Maybe she was the one working.
IF he had been married, and faultless in behaviour, and SHE (the WIFE) would have been working, then SHE would OWE HIM money if he had been the stay-at-home dad.
He was most likely NOT married, since he said PARTNER. Most likely, he didn't have a job before being 'kicked out', and so had nothing to support him and no way to pay for alternate housing.
Please learn to COMPREHEND things before making JUDGEMENTS and PUTTING BLAME on people.
THere is INSUFFICIENT information to blame anyone right now.
It seems you don't watch many "Invisible People" videos. There are many full time working men sleeping rough; there is that man who worked for 25 years at General Motors and is homeless now; that woman who worked for 35 years, had an accident and now is disable sleeping rough. You are the one who doesn't have enough elements to judge Ed.
Maura L: Exactly.. this isn't the forum for politically correct Justice warriors. We don't have to agree w/each other to have a productive conversation. FYI.. a partner can be a significant other of any gender of which you aren't married. One would conclude a "wife" b/c of the kids & best friend aspect, but whatever the situation.. It's all good!
Nathalie Loujein: It's important we check our attitude when responding to others. You may find ease in that may lead to a productive conversation.
Christie A: "First ones to blame are his wife and his best friend' is what I was replying to. I think THAT needs an attitude check more than anything else.
Productive conversations are for literate people in this type of forum, which is reading and writing. Comprehension is missing in many cases.
This missing comprehension leads to possibly INCORRECT CONCLUSIONS such as blaming a most-likely NON EXISTENT 'WIFE" and friend.
(If he was married, I have never heard of a married person call his wife 'partner' instead of 'wife'. MOST married people call each other husband and wife, which is why I commented on the PERILS and RISKS of being only a 'partner', which confers about ZERO rights to the other because it is not a LEGAL, BINDING contract, like a MARRIAGE is.)
IF people want assurances in life, be it professional or even personal, there need to be contracts. Otherwise, PROCEED at your own risk. This guy apparently did. (It's like people swimming in a pool without a lifeguard---swim at your own risk. Yes, marriage is a contract, and that piece of paper is a LIFEGUARD when the other has a row and wants to kick you out--guess what, he or she can't because there is an agreement..Now, divorce is a procedure that takes time, and BOTH parties have to be legal about it.) He is now paying the price. Go ask his QUEEN MOTHER in WINDSOR for help, since he apparently also doesn't have FAMILY to take him in.
So heart touching 😰I pray for you.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Everytime i feel low , i watch these stories. It makes me realize that there is someone out there suffering more than me! Sad life, cruel world!
Sadly it doesn't get any easier if you are a single female like myself, the council only help single women if you're pregnant/have children and/or you have drug/alcohol addiction. Doesn't matter what you have done for the country or society, the government will let you rot in the gutter with no remorse.
Exactly. They only help you if you've been irresponsible, basically. But drug free and child free? Hell no, no help. It's sick.
To make an update to this: Wales have now added people sleeping rough, including men, to their priority need lists for housing… before, men were not classed as being as vulnerable as a woman. Hopefully this means more men on the streets being given emergency or temporary accommodation.
when someone leaves you for another man it fucks you up and some of us never did get over it. it's painful. what's the answer there isn't one .a good friend if your very lucky take care tony
Dear Sir, do u have any of these ppl on Go Fund Me or something.....l could help w small daily money.....lve got barely enough but much more than homeless, GOD BLESS YOUR HELPFUL SOUL
Hi, Do you buy a meal or give some food or money to each homeless person you speak with as a thank you for their time?
Governments must care for the vulnerable and people need to care about everyone.
Another excellent interview my friend. Homeless in the UK don't seem to get much help, winter shelters do pop up, mainly run by church and charity from what I've seen. Stay safe buddy 👍
Thank you
winter shelters "pop-up" because no local authority wants to have news of homeless dying on their streets during any bitterly cold nights
Vincent de Guard yep keeps the fuckers out the news we can't be having said councils looking bad... Austerity by the tories = no funding for them and even if they had it they don't and won't build house's. Not to mention the property's they do have are invested through year's of council cost cutting.
Lots of them are scammers and people do get suspicious.
I love this channel, because it shows the other side.
He seems like a smart guy, hope he can get out the streets fast.
God Bless Ed,I Wish I Could Help Him, Stay Loose Keep The Faith; From America 🇺🇸 With Love & Remember God Loves Ya ‘🥰♥️
He is cute! I sure do hope he finds a way out. ❤
You licking your whiskers again
God bless you, and help them get out of this really hard situation.
It may be illegal to bet. But here in NY it's also illegal to just wander around with a sign not even asking for money or help. Actually it's not illegal but cops will tell u leave cause I say so and if u don't or challenge them...they will right u up for soliciting or some other bs charge. It's so sad. So very sad. People want to help those that are down but others call the police cause they don't want to see it or feel shitty for not helping...it's really messed up.
Police state ? Damn evil of those peoples !!
all the best mate and hope things pick up for you soon.
I wish this man safety and happiness.
This is happening all over the place including America. It’s a disgrace and sinful that we have homeless people on our streets. We allowed ourselves to ignore them, treat them like criminals, and brush them aside. This can literally happen to any of us and that’s the truth!!! The face of homeless people have changed and we need to do something or else there’s going to be two class left, the rich and the poor.
So sad to see this just wish more people who are a lot more fortunate with a lot more money could donate a small amount each month to help the homeless in there area not all are drug addicts and alcoholics some people just want a warm meal and a roof over there head pray for this guy he seems like a really good human being 🙌🙌
I do not want to unfair... not in the slightest. But in all those seven years has he never been able to get a job, just enough to have a roof over his head? Just enough not to have to beg? Not to go hungry for two days?

He's right about something there is no hope it's getting worse
I live in Wales. I just wanna say it's a lot harder for homeless people here. Colder, and ESPECIALLY in Cardiff there's a whole lot of stabbing and stealing and killing than I have ever seen. It gets to -8°c here. So people get sick. People sleep on cold concrete floor, at least la is warm
It is a terrible cruel truth that society does not take responsibility for the homeless. Worse there are ordinary people who want to give them the capital punishment: no money...no food...no place to sleep. If human rights work for the incoming immigrants, why not for the homeless?. The British Empire is rich enough to help these people. His highness Prince Harry protects the wounded from war, those with youth trauma's...but not the homeless guys. It is true what this man said: we are poisened by prejudices.
Razdo van Arbit, it's not just a matter of money. For example, if you give money to a drug addict what will they spend the money on? Drugs of course. This may sort of help them in the short-term but it does nothing for their chances of long-term survival.
You are right. I had the same thoughts about the homeless of LA Downtown. Terrible circumstances and as a dark lady said if you are depended you will not get help. You are criminal as she said. If you some of them help with money they will buy drugs. Give them a house and after some time they cannot afford the rent. Their social life is strongly connected with the drugsscene where they find their friends. How to stop criminality where many drugaddicts are victim of
Well they don't make the city government any profit there is the reason it's called greed
Single men having hard time being homeless? Patriarchy hits hard this time
One of the best interviews
I hope Ed has managed to get himself sorted out.
Jesus says love your neighbour. People need each other.
So sad - we really need to fix the broking mental health systems so we all can get the help and support we need.- build so much more social housing ect
It sounds like homelessness in the UK is the same as it is on the Eastern seaboard of the United States. In the warmer regions with blissfully low humidity, people seem at least to get a sufficient amount of sleep,even if their other less critical basic needs are difficult to meet. In locations where the weather seems to range from cold and damp to hot and humid with only a handful of comfortable weather days per year, painful sleep deprivation appears to be the number 1 problem. That's why I want so much to start a "sleep hospital" business similar to what's available in the airports of some Asian countries. The difference is that my sleep cubes/rooms would be priced at something like 3 dollars per hour, which in 2019 would easily cover all overhead expenses, even in ridiculously overpriced regions like the eastern US and the UK where I think a business like that would be most needed. I think it could be partially funded by sponsors, as well as super-transparent crowd sourcing where even donors who wish to remain anonymous could be assigned identifying numbers instead. I think people would be more inclined to want to donate to or invest in a business where every last dollar is accounted for and publicly listed, unlike all the amazing disappearing tax dollars and donations to certain entirely self-serving nonprofits.
How could i send this guy in cardiff some money? I have a checking account here in the states. I'm disabled myself and have no car so WU is out of the question. Thanks
Try helping out the thousands of homeless people in your own country....it makes more sense than complaing about not being 8 able to help the guy in the vid..
@@jeremyripton shame on me for wanting to help someone who is clearly suicidal and i do donate in my own country do you in yours?
@@rickmelin4926 No shame. It's just that there are probably people closer to you in similar situations who are more accessible and could use your help. He was just pointing that out.
With Western Union or Moneygram you can send money online at their websites, using your debit card.
Why is it that this kind of information is never publicised by the media but trivial things like Halsey being angry at hotel shampoo gets publicity
I hope by now he has a job n doing well🙏🏻💯👍🏼✌🖤
Sad what his ex GF and so called friend did to him. Such a handsome fellow. Hope he gets help before it's too late..
Any update about this friend? Hope he is employed now. Is it tough to get job in KFC and restaurants in the UK?
Britains a nightmare for the Homeless especially single males. I was homeless and am a single male, i went to get help from the Council and other agencies and all they could do was give me a sleeping bag. Not good when its 5° and raining...
Isn’t there any type of temporary work around he can do? It’s so heartbreaking
Difficult to turn up for work, if you have spent all night out sleeping rough in the cold and rain, with no food to eat, no change of clothes etc
Ed I am praying for you. Keep your head up.
All we need is, a place to stay, and food to eat. treat us as a human being, so we all can be productive.
