Chaff 3,411 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 You can't help those that don't help them self's, is what I tell my kids yet they still insist on feeding them. To them its now a bit like feeding the ducks in the park or feral pigeons 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marshman 7,756 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 I work in London so see a lot of different types of begging . What I’ve noticed is your getting people begging, english people that ain’t beggars, they’re just blagging coz it’s easy . I had a bloke come up to me said “ have I got a couple of quid so as he could buy some fried chicken as he was hungry “? On my life the c**t was fatter than me ! And I’m 18 stone ! I told him to f**k off after I ripped the shit out of him for being a fat c**t and he needed to lose weight if he was gonna pretend to be homeless . they’re right bang at it .not even homeless .

He sat opposite kfc and people kept giving him and the dog grub and money. Someone watched him and at the end of the day he went and got in a brand new renault estate and also he had a nice house in a village a few miles away. 8 hours ago, jiggy said: Any of the guys In the field sport section that keep asking if there is any lurchers or terriers I thought that it was those who always asked for a couple of heavies when on a Fox drive. There used to be a bit of a rough family along the road and one very cold wet day one of the girls was crying and sheltering by a tree down our side road. I felt very sorŕy for her and would have liked to have invited her in for warmth and shelter but the Mrs said that to do so could lead to all sorts of ramifications with the junkie parents and what would we do tomorrow or ñext week. I understood but it didn't sit well with me. pretty little thing she was too. Survival of the fittest unfortunately. It made me fèl like these wildlife photographers must do when they have to stand by añd not interview. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackbriar 8,568 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 I worked with a homeless organisation for several years, and I have tremendous sympathy for anyone who finds themselves in that situation - I know there are some chancers who jump on the bandwagon, but the vast majority are genuine, and no-one I ever met chose it - it's a lifestyle that is inflicted on them ! It's something that can happen very easily to anyone, at any time, however secure you think your life might be right now. If you really want to help the genuine homeless, this would be my advice......... DON'T give them money directly ! You will often be finding drug or alcohol habits that keep them on the streets, and may have got them there in the first place.Give your donation to a proper organisation or a local centre, that helps people to secure their lives long term and get off the streets for good. Buy a copy of the Big Issue - I regularly buy it, even though I never read it ! The sellers are checked and monitored - they buy the magazine, and sell it for a small profit, which they keep. By buying it, you're helping the seller to earn a living, rather than relying on handouts. If you think someone is genuine, you can report their whereabouts to Streetlink, who will send an outreach worker to try to make a connection and offer organised support. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Make no mistake begging is big business , addiction or not. Their is turf wars and bullying for good locations in city centre main streets. Romanian family leaders dropping in a dozen family members every day and driving off in new Mercedes and collecting them again at night. Better to hand them a sandwich than money. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chaff 3,411 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 Maybe the solution is for people to give f**k all, then the professional beggars would go, the junkie and alcys would disappear. Leaving the genuine ones to get a bit of help from government. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
