Bloody Fakes again
[Street sleepers accused of being "fake homeless" are being chased out of a Devon town. Humanity Torbay launched the "Fake Homeless" campaign last week to remove what it calls "professional beggars" from Torquay. Volunteers in the seaside town have been photographing homeless people then checking with charities to see if they are known to them. They have also put posters up around the town warning "fake homeless" people they will have their photo taken and will be "cross referenced"] https://news.sky.com/story/fake-home...paign-11269583 |

It's especially irritating considering homelessness is a bigger problem in Torquay than it is on average in the UK... I've noticed whenever I'm in town that it's gotten a lot more noticeable in the past five years. As usual there's more money spent by volunteers on persecuting the criminals than there is by (local) government on the victims, though...

this is rife - in every town and in every nation. I feel for the real homeless that have nothing and who are cold and hungry and begrudge the pretend beggars but part of me feels that people are so gullible and if they want to give them money away - who am I to judge.
