copycat Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Its likley that moves are afoot to ensure that people living rough and homeless will be rounded up and provided with secure night-time accommodation at the DHA's Victoria Road buildings when the current 'residents' are re-located to the new Jurby facility.

copycat Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 I already have a couple in my house who I am effectively providing subsidised housing for and who would other wise be homeless - so I think I'm doing enough and more than some rich people who have huge houses and many empty rooms and who sit back and count their cash and make the odd donation which they give out is being generous when really its not a big amount in the context of their overall wealth.
