Curt comes from Birmingham but has been living rough in the Milton Keynes area for five years. What you see is his home – he apologised to me for it being a bit messy. I apologised to him because I have let him down by not shouting louder.

Poignant. Especially at this time of year. With best wishes.
Thank you Graham. Best wishes to you too.
Surely we should be doing more. Sickening that the rich get richer and the gap gets wider: I’m alright Jack’.
I so agree. I have suggested money be given to charities instead of being bought ‘stuff’ that I really don’t need but people don’t want to do that. I must be more resolute.
Dispensed with all cards this year in favour of donations. A small start, but a start nonetheless.
I will do the same next year. Great idea.
That is an idea
The gap gets wider and those who with stand risk falling through
It’s so sad that life has a very short memory
But this is how it is
You do what you can when you can
You gave me something to think about

Here in the US, the guy would be ticketed and jailed and his belongings tossed away. It will get worse now.
I hate capitalism because it hates those who are poor but contrives, successfully, to keep them so.
Thank you, you are one of a handful that feels that way, which is my sentiment exactly. I hear people cry and moan about poor people, and how it’s just a never ending cycle, because of so-called government handouts, and entitlement mentality. It pisses me off that people feel that way, because it can easily happen to anyone. No one is really 100# secure, unless you are a billionaire, and we know they have no ethical or moral bounds.
Is it the man who hasn’t any shelter homeless
Or is it the man who has shelter
Who is homeless
I know it may seem obvious
But just the same a question
Still comes to mind
