Help homeless

-

Scotland’s law should be changed so people made homeless spend no more than a week in temporary accommodat­ion such as B&BS, a cross-party group of MSPS has said.

Why is the Scottish government sending £300,000 to Mali to help people suffering there? Who permitted them to do that while they’re already trying to house nationals from other countries who chose to come here? In other words – nothing to help Scottish people who pay the taxes.

No doubt they will be looking at who has a spare room, holiday home or other space they can appropriat­e.

It is the usual talking shop, little gets done at the end of the day.
