    The Government have asked Local Authorities to find accommodation for all rough sleepers
    by this weekend. Premier Inn has offered to provide 200 rooms to get some off the streets.

    Should have permanent places to be rather than just at this time.

    However, it's good to see Premier Inn are helping out.

    Amazing that the Government can now suggest accommodation for rough sleepers if that is the case. They've had several years to do that. We must have a Trotskyite government in charge. Lefty loonies eh?

    Anybody remember him that slept in front of old Dunnes store before it became a gym, on Shambles Street, the guy who converted it to a gym did a house up and GAVE it to the dropout. I think he lived there a couple of weeks then trashed the house and went back on the street, he preferred it he said.
