St Mungo's Staff Strike Over Conditions And Treatment Of Migrants

Hundreds of workers at Britain’s biggest homelessness charity have started a three-day strike in a protest about working conditions and the treatment of vulnerable migrant rough sleepers whose details the charity shared with the Home Office.
