 This lunatic was a civil servant in DEFRA. 
They are playing the mental health card with this one.
"Struggling with his sexuality" - since when has that been an excuse to kill babies?

 The interviewer of Willoughby went off on one, on JKR on Twatter, and here's the result!

 It may be worse this Monday morning, because on both Saturday and Sunday, do-gooder organisations came and handed out free food. (They set up tables on the pavement with paper plates, but people still wandered around with the food ).
Plus there was a lot of wind, the trash was swirling around. 
Pity the city employees who have to clear up. 
And the locals. If you watch at around 8am and 4pm, you see parents taking little children to and from the station, past all this.

Oh, this is 5 months AFTER the new (Democrat) Mayor's "Big clean-up", btw.
She had the tent city removed in May, but now these addicts have to survive a winter without tents - everyone predicts the tents will be back, or people will freeze to death. Philadelphia is 39 degrees North,   so 13 degrees South of London, but they are on the wrong side of the Gulf Stream.

Maybe she will have them scooped up into hotels on the coldest days, who knows? 
But you can't lock people indoors. The evidence from the Plandemic is that hotel owners throw them out during the day because they trash it, plus the addicts prefer the life of the streets. We had this happen in Bristol during Covid Lockdowns. They just walked out and carried on begging.

 Well, the elected Mayor of Bristol, in Winter 2022, handed out big black plastic sacks for the homeless to sleep in. The kind of thing you'd buy at B&Q for garden rubbish. 

No joke.
Needless to say, you never saw anyone using them. The recipients had more sense.
Apparently, he (or his Labour advisors) didn't even think that giving homeless addicts big black trash bags to sleep in was "a bad look"!
(Quite apart from being ineffectual, because late night clubbers might easily have thrown their cans and takeaways into one, not realising there was a person inside)!
We voted last year to never have elected Mayors again.
