Plan To Move Homeless People Out Of London

Westminster Council is moving homeless people out of London to combat the high cost of temporary housing. Homeless people will be shifted from the borough and relocated to places elsewhere in the UK - likely the home counties - from January 30. The council has argued it will enable people to “put down local roots”, despite many of them having been born in London. It said it will help them find a job and access education and healthcare once they have been relocated. Read more on the Evening Standard website.
