Homeless to be moved out of London

The fairness agenda continues...

Homeless families to be kicked out of London and sent as far away as WALES as councils buy up cheap properties to house them

  • Local authorities say sky-high rental costs in the capital, combined with the incoming benefits cap has forced them to send people miles away from home
  • Areas as far away as Manchester, Merthr Tydfil and Hull, as well as the Home Counties are all earmarked for families
  • 'It is going to be practically impossible to provide affordable accommodation to meet our homelessness duties in London,' Dagenham Council say
