FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The number of people classed as homeless in 2011/12 was 50,290, compared with 40,020 three years ago, according to data experts.
“This surge in homelessness has been caused by a perfect storm of a double-dip recession made in Downing Street and sharp falls in house building”, said shadow communities secretary Hilary Benn.
“To help bring homelessness down and get the economy moving the government should use funds raised from a tax on bank bonuses to build thousands of affordable homes”, Benn added.
The government’s spending on home building for the needy has dropped from £213.7 million to £199.8m over the last three years, resulting in a huge 25 percent increase in homelessness.
Local housing authorities have a legal duty to provide emergency accommodation for “priority need” groups left without a home.
They include households with dependent children, pregnant women, vulnerable people with a mental illness or physical disability, victims of domestic violence and people left without homes due to a disaster such as fire or flooding.
Regionally, the highest percentage increase was in the east of England, with the number of cases rising from 3,660 in 2009/10 to 5,270 in 2011/12 – a huge 44 per cent increase.
