Alot, granted not all, of the familes that are homeless at the moment will not leave the cities and towns they are located in to live in holiday homes and rural areas. And even if they did the small amount of support systems they currently have would be gone. A home is only half a solution if they then cannot afford food, clothing and education. I am in no way professing to be an expert and I dont have any better solutions, I think calling it a housing crisis is misleading we have much deeper problems than just getting these people accomodation anywhere at all. | |||

Until then its patchwork. And the problem is the people respnsible for doing any of it rely on votes | |||

The homeless crisis are not my words, but peter mcverrys..im certainly no expert on these matters, but i am inclined to listen to a man of his experience in trying to deal with these issues over a life time..i think we might at least agree, that for the four thousand children in emergency accomodation, it is a crisis.. | |||
