who says this. i've always been lucky had a great education a good job it's a little. nuts worry about where i would sleep i could eat but facing christmas alone the streets. to come to the. pub it is so. valuable i was lucky you know the sunlight in the fields still give out food for the homeless of.

purpose of life. because you don't really feel like you have the big you know. and then. the guy just came over smithsonian gave you all sides of this budget.

this is about warmth love and family but there are so many people in the u.k. that have none of these things i want to see what it was like to be on the top the signs to go through christmas as a homeless person. or each other directly. yes i hope so. well i know it's on your list i see it anything but a lump of coal although i've got to. since two thousand and ten the number of rough sleepers in the u.k. has increased by over fifty percent that means literally thousands are out on the street every night. i was going to have enough time to really understand homelessness but everyone has to face the fear that first night out i changed some types of clothes packed a plastic bag. i have no idea where i'm going to spend christmas or even where i'm

going to sleep. last. night me. groups a few things but not too much with. blankets which is going to be void of course let's run. just a bowl of water. something that's. hopefully put people in a good mood. and a towel. and clean myself a bit less and also my. brush. at a bit suitcase. but i have no money. and i haven't eaten anything and the only way i'm going to eat something is either by finding it's all. begging for enough money to get me. some tweaks.

that's the first but the. homeless regularly fed by the looks of charities but i have no idea when. i need some advice from someone not. me but surely we need this korea today you know. no place to sit the money going gets me three times now it's on. and on and on trying to get enough enough to. keep chickens. it was what i was hoping to. great news honey i'm too late here to give out food around here first thing in the morning so i'll miss what chaunce.

there was nothing else for it if i was going to eat i was going to have to make. myself a spoke. to two new most fun minutes bring myself to what's mr chase. but. really just sleep oh. ok. she says christ just absolutely if. people buy you in the door you. and the one coming down the just a may have been gay people to quit. i didn't expect that or do. you feel so ashamed to ask people.

sure to feel about you have to do that to get to both to get boy. to. the bus on which. the sofa. played such a. short. and been told to cause things amounting to something to the. thing that makes you feel worse he was. the one to turn to some people to see how they were feeling the time.

that this is the anything actually they can have in a as each time a territory adds to even though nothing him i have nothing else in life. lisa has been homeless for two years now she's battled alcoholism drug addiction and a little girl now this with the old system. you know she asks me every day and some i say yeah. yeah when i'm in the back on the end she's starting to stop asking now has been said but i didn't. qualify for a lot of the hospitals because i wasn't mentally ill enough i didn't score enough points to not play. in order to get social housing permits person must meet a number of different criteria since lisa doesn't tick the right books since she faces an uncertain future. too. yes

yes i have been for a long time now i just a lucky break wolf i can't get past the kids i can't let my dog down consistent to face like six feet at least if i was to stop that. and yet. these discussions reminded me just how close we moved to christmas. it was celebrations going on all around me but they don't mean much if you've got nothing to spend. but they're all good people if you give up the money and time to spread a little festive cheer. it's just a little fall six so i'm heading down towards cherry hill sinestro to see

a fourth point is going to spurs just enough for the food it. looks like christian church situps stables or even bill see how the characters. on most. of the lovely. soup loves soup thank you very much i think you've. made good on that specific. i've been on my feet for. iced tricep in dying gulf stream. but i was thinking of my joe dating. help me i'm going to streets ever since did

your family oh yeah. we're staying on time because my i saw oh i married oh oh. they just they want to stay on top of me just kids yeah i love free oh do that. if you want to start to like him he's. been hard to be. honest no one sponsoring my love eight year old saw an eight year old boy sixteen to. twenty five year old boy. i'm sorry non-pros ross writes. him into the night last night i just i just typed in my state stores to go. play and not be christmas right write. stories like me to come in the first circle of drinks

which leads to music interesting. destroyed here in the uk sometimes the richest parts of the u.k. is filled with people feeling compelled just every night i'm miles distant but mostly. when you're close because you run out of the know that. but for a good trait i carry a then j. which. has a pleasant lusciousness on the ships. because as i made. life's loose who took. it without a fight yeah what about smart if you controlling people fit and i know i know this or any of this is very mushy. you said than done as you go i mean we. still are so

used to store in the meantime. i love. this story like you only. lose a little bit. good with little of the money was good at least of which were people who i could finally release someone uses my way of life possible over. any sympathy i've had for critiques quickly for it's it some people don't deserve it. forced. me scuse me goes you don't fish for those tickets going to shows me. your thank you very much that's what you want to one's function very much serious. mostly about the trouble cause it gets me on the ground yes may be a form of so-so so i say surface push.

this is a place i found. great commission ministry. just. a day with one making the right choice have been exploited. and use. this for didn't realize already this is the spree of horrible. two mice when i was i think they were mice kind of the mice were to remember my feeds.

there isn't a glimmer in the slowest. loony bin on the streets. but has it been cool humiliating and frightening for someone in the world it could be of any time. you could easily see what drugs or alcohol would as a way to bridge the sea. you need help to consent to have someone touch you from. what poses. he put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. wanted. to going to be close to survival before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested in the

waters of. course. the greek riots occupy wall street arab spring these are the beginnings of the home of the protest across europe today it was all connected it's all based on the exact same concept of bankers printing too much money creating this wealth think i'm gap and it's a delayed or deferred riot you know it's true that their violence was baked into their fiat's cake and now leaders like black hole are getting their just desserts. my son in this doing drugs my nephews was still in drugs my sister just with doing drugs it was like an epidemic of drug abuse america's public enemy number one in the united states is. drug abuse he started going after the users in the prison

population sewer we started treating sick people people who are addicted to these drugs like criminals while i was on the hill i became convinced that the war on drugs was a mistake there are countless numbers of people who are in prison for. certain sins for borin or minor offenders in the drug trade it's a lot watching your children grow up in miss you in waves in saved by daddy as you're walking out of a business it's just it doesn't get easier. those longer stay look you know. maybe. the humility least. drawing.

the streets was more than enough for me the hundred discomfort with enough but the humiliation was worse that was soul destroying jobs bill money to find a way i wanted to spend christmas eve with some people who took their lives back on track. very good. things went very well thank you very much could. have signified a subsidy. to say i lost all typed. up from the oss projects. and intervention same.

you know people who talk addictions. the differences might small it's massive absolutely massive. this enabled me. to get my life back on track he when you leave stray homeless you don't realize just what an impact on someone's life it's. you know you have to get used to sharon again you have to get used to cook here i mused again when you came in i guess you didn't know things now i had. the clothes on the back when i when i came here i had a pair of jeans. pair of trainers with holes in that was it kind it with or without the opportunity if these guys given that to me are you know where i would be. very. simple.

and the. baby is moving slowly. you know don't stick you much and they end up and he'll. tell me no i didn't get it for you to do it just moved up a little bit today these people here don't have manged they moved out. yeah i was too slow chains the mentee this isn't it is not going to. help my. head it should be myself and i have no special. way. really being that way yet i can always publish it. consisted of a long tail filing a few people out of you over. megan's big yes when i'm out here people pay

for food for almost kelly kind of a printing press that was one frame along here but we feel. over the earth then you know the hormone. kind of the early years and all of a girl now i woke up and i am i being run cycling felt the money had been stolen and i was left there what with just it was it just because of the drugs that you state here is money. you can handle off when we got you know less than the one to. leicester square piccadilly circus yeah it was right with tourists and they're just waiting to get rid of all these easy bodies is like fifteen years ago the brothers would fish around this area that brian is now and this time kevin the set up is an addiction recovery consultancy it took a terrible personal tragedy to make him turn this month around our son kevin was

try their way through actually the way across the way for a woman both amisom really. sixty two though i know. that i was by myself you know bill. myself a dog and i've written called who won over coverage and now i can so put on a venture in recovery from addiction the passive homeless you know homeless i think you'd be proud. that's half the battle it seems just finding the will to carry on the next day we drove down to kevin's home by the seaside sleepy. during a bunch of money just finally christmas day. that's it make me crazy or start and i think you're the star of think you're a star that's of the kitchen has made all this stuff you have to see we have to have you already do we tell you to move as you do t.v. you look if you look great. by hat i was

a willing go. with that. how many meals have you done we chatted about sixty five today yeah yeah if you did so i guess that. we might not have responded because it's rod i was just being real scenario friend . yeah yeah. yeah yeah yeah i like a christmas is a family holiday but for many years the twins of celebration with those who've gone nowhere else to go on today is no different. to the key will the trimmings for everything. that.

i. hope go on with me oh my god how did the house during the day i had a. failure to list and i've. missed out on christmas with my family but there was real christmas spirit in that hole as much as i hated being out in the streets i love being at home sometimes. you might just be a few days in a miserable year but it's clear that the holiday still gives people hope i've waited to open a car been given by a young man a few words that remind me just how lucky i really am.

when i was a child some seemed wrong. but old rules just don't hold. me to old to get to shape out these days to come out to it and in detroit because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. her. country called russia nor was it what no one has ever heard about the country never even heard about most

eleven. eleven. eleven. eleven eleven. eleven. looks. few.

illo . stories. journalists rights groups react with indifference to the naming and shaming of russian media. connection with allegations of spreading information. to the children officials. keep. kids. in the united states. relatives during their christmas holidays. to other displays of physical affection. children are often not around people that we would like to think are healthy people when we presume

that as a solution.
