I was walking past Halls & Co Solicitors this evening (399 Lordship Lane) at 8pm to see a homeless guy covered in a blanket in the doorway next to the Costcutters shop.It really did upset me to think that someone was sleeping in such a poor uncovered space within a major road. Has anyone seen this guy here before? :(

i myself have been homeless and its awfull, but true some dont want help.... i was to proud to ask or approach anyone for help for a few months... i was living in brighton at the time.... found a nice spot on the beach nr the david lloyd gym, that had a big bit of grass with a dip sheltering from the wind that was hidden from the public eye! couldnt bare to go public the shame!! :(


anyway i managed to find a local mail box outside a house and so used my brain and used that address to go to the job centre and register myself as jobless to get jsa....i got it and could then apply for housing bennefit and was then able to go and find myself a room....but im a strong willed proud person.... most dont have this drive, and i was put thier due to bad personal circumstances and finding out i didnt have the good friends i thought i once had and no help was abvailable!

not eveyone that is homeless is thier due to thier own fault but alot wont take the help offered! i also went to charing cross every saturday evening and gave outalot of food to the homeless thier with a good christian group..... feltvery satisfying to help them....


but thier there are charitys that offer help..that help to get them on to jsa and houseing and can help find landlords that will take tennants on housing and the charitys pu the deposit up! really really nice of them and im sure is available in london..... i do feel for them i really do but id never give money.... they might use it for alcohol and drugs which isnt going to help them...... id offer food and drink but even thats been turned down before can u believe!

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.
