Will anyone grip the homelessness crisis?

from The Rundown by PoliticsHome · host PoliticsHome

Rough sleeping and homelessness are some of the most intractable problems successive governments have failed to solve; but does it need to be this hard, are the solutions already out there, and if so why has no administration managed to grasp the nettle? Lord John Bird, crossbench peer and co-founder of The Big Issue magazine, Andy Preston, former mayor of Middlesbrough and founder of the charity CEO Sleepout UK, and Matthew Torbitt, a campaigner on homelessness who used to advise a number of Labour MPs, join Alain Tolhurst to discuss if Keir Starmer's administration will fare better than those before him.
