It's the housing, stupid

Shelter's Adam Sampson says on Indyblogs that the solution to homelessness is, - well, more homes. He criticises the Tories for focusing on certain aspects of homelessness without the commitment to bring in real solutions.
Picking on street homelessness as an obvious symbol of the failings of modern welfare is all very well. But sooner or later, someone will start to draw the connection with the rise in housing need and the resistance of Conservative local authorities to the building of new homes
