[quote]Good advice - which we hear constantly  and easy to follow, for most of us living in reasonable accommodation.

With self contained facilities - including kitchens and bathrooms; and often gardens to do our sunbathing in, and to exercise our animals.

However, an official study last year confirmed that 14.3 million of us, in the UK, are in poverty - with 4.5 in deep poverty.

Most living in cramped/shared rooms, with low hygiene standards and overcrowding. Or on the streets.

Some EU countries have  attempted to rectify this by rounding up the homeless, into football stadiums - and other ghetto type areas.

Our government though - chooses not to see the homeless elephant in the room - and thinks that the lockdown/social-distancing solution, is the answer.

Soon it will be seen such protocols for the disadvantaged are counterproductive, unfair and unworkable.

As the downtrodden will have their say, in whatever format.

Yes, money is being spent (on medicine/health aspects) - but the, as yet, unsick will prove a major obstacle, when they do have that say...

Barney	The plight of the one room families, the bed sit dwellers, the homeless/rough sleepers - could well come to a head this Easter weekend. When temperatures will hit 25°c - and beaches and parks are severely restricted for relaxation purposes. So many are caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. Cramped/unfit for purpose accommodation V being arrested for seeking fresh air! Powderkeg ingredients currently exist for the vulnerable:- - inadequate accommodation - no cafes, few takeaways - open spaces closed - bank holidays making things worse - emergency services and charities overrun Completely new territory for our nation - with uncertain consequences..
