The homeless problem in the uk is horrendous and you bring up a point which I observed in action today. As I walked through Nottingham centre there was a guy sleeping in a doorway (freezing his arse off probably). As the guy was trying to sleep, I didn't stop to give change. As you said this is something that everyone should have the right to do, but the gov want to control charity too. Anyway, back to the guy I passed. About 20 feet down the road I was asked to sign up for a registered charity by a street vendor. I had to ask him why we were not helping the gentleman in the door-way?
It's all an act to make us feel like we are doing something to help. In the meantime, towns are being gentrified and councils are banning the homeless from entering the city perimeter.
That's some tough times you speak of, and one that too many can relate too. Take care bro, glad things are better for you now.
