Hello


Seeking all of the above please for someone without a roof.

if you're blessed with a home and have any of the above gathering dust, they would be going to good

use.


Perhaps I should explain, this is for an older woman who has been living in a van which isn't going to pass its upcoming MOT and is looking to move between x3 camp sites in London which are cheap for camping. I've been trying to help her as I can personally including with lend of my sofa on the coldest nights. I'm now moving.


There are quite a few older woman who once had homes and jobs now living in vans and cars.

I used to be guilty myself of thinking that there must be places provided for people to go, in extremis. This isn't the case. And a lot of people do not want to go anywhere near 'social services' because they can't bear the prospect of being patronised and bullied to death. As soon as people present as homeless they are now apparently bullied very aggressively by Councils and pushed out of London including to places hundreds of miles away where they will not be better off.


If anyone could help with a decent waterproof tent that can be put up one-handed would be appreciated.

Hi Thanks for the message. I didn't want to start a debate on homelessness though - I haven't got the energy for one thing - just trying to get some items together to help. There do seem to be places that give out sleeping bags but also understand why person in need does not want to go near them. Annoying thing is I had a really good sleeping bag and other camping stuff but gave it away a couple of years ago as thought would never have any need for it. The weather being really cold still too and the shelters that exist all due to close around now it seems. But there are precious few of them anyway.

    • Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets! None of us have any  idea what a Corbyn led government during Covid would have been like. But do you seriously think it would have been worse than Johnson's self-serving performance? What you say about the swing of seats away from Labour in 2019 is true. But you have missed my point completely. The fact that Labour under Corbyn got more than ten million votes does not mean that Corbyn was "unelectable", does it? The present electoral system is bonkers, which is why a change is apparently on the cards. Anyway, it is pointless discussing this, because we are going round in circles. As for McCluskey, whatever the truth of that report, I can't see what it has to do with Corbyn?
    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
