I can understand Mrs May's position on homelessness. In a world in which you can have a job with no hours, having nowhere to live without being homeless is a manageable concept.
I think she would be upset if actually confronted by a family forced into a one-room bed and breakfast by benefit changes. As an ordinary MP she'd even be trying to help.
The irony is that people in her position refuse to see that they are creating what they are being asked to witness. Show Donald Trump a North Korean girl with her skin crozzled like bacon in a firestorm & he'll weep real tears on TV, but he'd still drop that bomb ........ I don't get this human capacity to divorce ourselves from the consequences of our actions. I can see it allows us not to permanently mourn the animal we slaughter to eat, but ultimately it allows Hitler to be kind to dogs and sit children on his knee, whilst the smoke from the ovens is darkening the sky ...........
When Mrs May next meets up with the Archbishop, perhaps it is an issue to which he could direct her thoughts.
Unlike me she believes in God. If for once she's right, I hope He's a bolshie God; first question at the Pearly Gates, "What the fkkk did you do for the homeless TM, we've got quite a few of them in here & they've got an eternity of questions ........"
