Britain has 4.2 million CCTV cameras, one for every 14 people, more than in the rest of Europe put together.

The number of people arrested for begging in London has doubled in recent years, alongside increases in the numbers of people sleeping on the streets. Yet new legislation to criminalise aspects of homelessness targets the symptoms, not the issues fueling them.
