“Under the laws set out in the Children’s Act, local authorities are legally obliged to provide accommodation for minors, to prevent vulnerable children ending up on the streets.”

Brother bs, that’s the hive in a nutshell! The transfer of power and authority away from the individual and onto the state, subsequently bloating the obligations of the state and transferring that load over the whole of society, lowering the standard of living one layer at a time! One law at a time, one more regulation, slowing real time needs under layer upon layer of bureaucracy!

A society that stops delegating responsibility on the individual and places that burden on society always becomes totalitarian in nature while the individual pays the highest price imaginable, his life!

Sorry to report, gentlemen, freedom may be on hold indefinitely!

From the article.

“But London charity Project 17, which works to end destitution among migrant children, said councils were effectively ignoring the law and often complying only after legal action was taken. It claimed that, of the scores of families it had supported that had initially been denied housing in the past year across the capital, around 90 per cent were eventually housed by the council after legal action was taken, citing the Children’s Act.

Lawyers said an increased number of families unable to access support from central government due to changes to immigration laws, coupled with increased financial strain on councils, had led to a “growing problem” of local authorities claiming children are not “in need” – despite their families being homeless.

One Jamaican woman and her children, aged 12 and nine and both born in the UK, had to spend nights in A&E waiting rooms and a McDonald’s after they were evicted from their home. Lewisham found they were not “in need”, according to Project 17. A judge later found the decision was “irrational”.

In another case, a Nigerian family with two children age eight and 11 spent weeks without a home, sleeping on night buses, in hospitals and in bus stations, after Barking and Dagenham refused to grant the children support under Section 17. A judge later found the council had acted unlawfully and ordered that the decision be quashed.”

Article is soley focused on migrants/ immigrants children. What about the UK children would be my response. Its a UK article and it complains about govt assistance for people that probably aren’t nationalized and probably never will.

My god it’s like the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Uiion) complaining about illegals not being treated fairly under the law… Laws that these people have already ignored when gaining entry to the country in the first place.

Where’s carnage when I need him to chime in on something. The level of entitlement generated by that article… Then being provided for just for being there. Yes I know they are just children, it’s more the leech I’m focused on. Those kids had to come from somewhere and last I checked they don’t just drop outta the sky into people’s laps. If someone isn’t prepared for children *cough cough (single mothers) maybe they shouldn’t have a kids in the first place. Cause it’s just another crotch spawn that ends up on govt assistance that my taxes help raise, then continues the cycle.

Hope that someday I may lead others the path I have learned. As Virgil led Dante through Hell.

Cops and local government will likely start cleaning up the cities they live in once they realize their pensions will not exist in five to ten years, with them not having the money to move away when they retire.

One of the biggest economic bubbles is the government pension systems. And there is not money in the population to get more through taxes.

Of course local authorities want children to be safely housed.

That way, local councillors, MP’s and BBC executives know where to find them.
