Baggers1987 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Beware of the group of blokes who are pretending to be homeless around the S8 area. They usually sit outside the Meadowhead Petrol Station, Premier Shop and shops on the St James retail park. They are in fact NOT homeless and all live together in Greenhill, and have been spotted entering and leaving their property daily with sleeping bags etc, ahead of a “days work” outside the shops. Some homeless people really do need kind peoples help, these don’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyrotequila Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Just use common sense, if they look too clean, they aren't really homeless...if you offer to buy them a sandwich and they want money instead, they aren't homeless. NEVER give homeless people money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirsty Relic Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 If it is known where they live and what they are doing, can't they be removed and charged with something? If not, then collect them at the end of their day, empty their pockets, stop their dole and benefits as they are working and get them to pay tax on their "earnings", or inform them that next time they are picked up, then their possesions at that address will be confiscated and sold as proceeds of crime.
