Closed Give British people priority need for accommodation

Closed on

The Government should include British Citizens in the list for priority need for accommodation within the Housing Act 1996.

We have a government who constantly find homes for thousands of Asylum Seekers, yet they appear to lack the same urgency for our own citizens. Those who have paid taxes and helped to build our Nation deserve to be housed first and foremost.

We must start to treat our citizens with the same respect and dignity that we give others.
