I hope Burnham does get rough sleeping down. But he's up against his own record, and ours in Ireland. We've thrown the kitchen sink of resources at it, and the number of rough sleepers in Dublin sticks mostly in a range of 100-150 people on any given night. 136... show more

The pledge to end rough sleeping yesterday was welcome but the PM must follow through on the report by The Centre for Social Justice he wrote a foreword to last year Half of rough sleeping in London alone is non-UK nationals. Without a robust deterrent alongside it, any promise to end rough sleeping with the offer of accommodation will incentivise boat crossings and ultimately fail.

The number of young people sleeping rough in London has halved, thanks to work from City Hall and organisations like Crisis . But we won’t stop until we end rough sleeping.

A Melbourne council will soon have the authority to take items from people sleeping in 'encampments', in a move that's been labelled inhumane. The City of Port Phillip claims the law won't target rough sleepers, but it's been met with strong backlash. Penelope Liersch #9News

This is more than just a hotel. With an additional £200,000 investment from City Hall, Crisis at Christmas is running into January and giving people sleeping rough warmth, safety and support this winter. It is just one of the ways we are working to end rough sleeping in London for good.

🚨"You can’t ‘instruct’ the end of rough sleeping... it was just a soundbite" Tom Slater from Spiked says Andy Burnham's sentiments on rough sleeping might sound good but in practice solving something that complicated can't just be willed away. Tom Slater | Julia Hartley-Brewer

My graphic shows the number of vacant and derelict sites highlighted in red in Dublin City. The housing system in Ireland is in crisis, primarily due to ineffective governmental policies. The prolonged dereliction of properties should be considered social vandalism, a crime against the state and the common good. An effective vacant and derelict tax, coupled with a compulsory sales order, could dissuade landlords from hoarding land, particularly sites that have been vacant and derelict for an extended period. It's worth mentioning the latest Department of Housing figures, which show another record in the number of homeless people in Ireland. At the end of June, 14,303 people were homeless in this country. This included 2,093 families and 4,404 children, a 17% increase compared to the same time last year. #HousingCrisis #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland #Dublin #Ireland

🇬🇧BROKEN BRITAIN🇬🇧 Yesterday, this homeless man had his nose bitten off in a violent attack in broad daylight He was taken to hospital for treatment and discharged within a few hours. The police secured him a place at the local night shelter, but when he arrived, his place had been given to another homeless person 💔 Violently attacked with half his nose missing, in a very vulnerable state with addiction problems, he's back sleeping rough, scared, and wondering if he's going to be attacked again I found him again today in the back of a flat doorway with nothing but a dirty ripped sleeping bag. Again, there was no place available at the night shelter Why is he not a priority? I did all I could with what we had available from previous appeals, he has a new sleeping bag, fresh clothes, an emergency shelter tent, a panic alarm, and he's been fed The other person in the video has taken him in for the night, so we know he's safe, at least for now Why has he not been kept in the hospital? Surely he needs plastic surgery? Why is he not a priority with the emergency housing team? He clearly self-harms has addiction problems and is very vulnerable This is England 2024 The number of people sleeping rough is up 27% on last year 61% higher than it was 10 years ago, and 120% higher than when data collection began in 2010 It's time all the major parties came together and pledged to end homelessness This is not supposed to be a third-world country, but look around you. What do you see? How many more people have to suffer before action is taken? What has our country become😢

Reports that the Irish army has APCs on the streets of Dublin. So far, it's the inner city going up, but if the army gets rough with the people, the big working class estates on the outer ring will join in too. This could all still calm down, but if it doesn't, everything will be utterly changed.

Corbyn on his first words if he'd have become prime minister: 'Today, rough sleeping [and] homelessness ends. There will be no more homeless people in this country. The state will provide. That was going to be my opening gambit.'

Landowners owe councils €50 million as 90% of vacant site levies go unpaid. Intended to prevent land hoarding and accelerate housing development, only €138,335 of €9.6 million owed in 2022 was collected. Thirteen of 31 local authorities issued no demands, and of the 18 that did, only four collected any money. Dublin City Council imposed nearly €4.9 million in levies but collected nothing.

“I would be dead or in jail.” The govt pledged to end rough sleeping but it’s increasing - up 27% in a year. We spent time with frontline services in Newcastle and Loughborough, where we heard dire warnings of what lies ahead as council cuts threaten their existence. Part 1:

We’re doing things differently in San Francisco when it comes to homelessness. And we’re seeing results. - Nearly 1,000 fewer people are sleeping on our streets compared to 2024—a major sign that our strategy is working. - Unsheltered homelessness in San Francisco is now at its lowest level in 15 years. - The number of people in tents is down 85%. These numbers come from the 2026 Point in Time Count. The takeaway is clear: More people are coming inside to get shelter and treatment, and we are moving in the right direction.
