London Homeless

London may have some of the most expensive housing imaginable but that doesn't stop scores of people sheltering in doorways every night.'But as temperatures dropped below zero over the past week, conditions on the street became  life-threating for the UK's homeless population, and emergency measures, known as homeless people sheltering Severe Weather Emergency Potocol (SWEP), were triggered across London. This is to ensure that no one dies on the street due to the severe weather.' (Independent, 8 February) Many of the homeless are shivering outside beautiful houses that lie empty. Madness! RD
