Arista is offering a solution

we know the problem already


This is a solution - too many times we hold out hands up and say "this is the problem"

great

but identifying problems is easy

solutions are not that is why they are hard

Absolutely right, a perfect and compassionately balanced post as to the issue thank goodness.

The only things I would want to push for is for Church leaders to stop preaching about the obscenity of homelessness while locking their doors day after day,wherein parts of the Church could help shelter some genuinely homeless individuals.
Also, the obscene empty buildings of former businesses lying left empty for months and years and even decades, that could be put to some use as to helping as halfway houses for the homeless too.

The main atrocious fact of all is that in 21st century Britain that there are any homeless and people with deep rooted problems as to being homeless too, at all across the UK.
