I doubt anyone chooses to sleep in a tent outside m&s if there were decent alternatives, not hostels where you risk you minimal possessions or even safety. Make the shelters better and better prospects. If the people are here illegally then use that avenue, if they are legal then we should help those less fortunate not leave them to freeze

Why not just go whole way spray homeless people with a hose and leave them to freeze to death /s

When their best mates are big data like palantir I wonder why

But this is to take power away from councils. Tories hate local government so do everything to centralise

I left.the oven on for about 48hrs once when went away only damage was to my pocket from the electricity bill (and wasn’t that bad as quite well insulated, was maybe about £30-40 (so double for the month) (few years ago)

I do same with hobs now. My induction hob turns off when you remove the pan for more than 30s. I now leave hobs on when at others.
