Rejected petition Provide UK homeless people with the same services as asylum seekers

Transport homeless UK people to hotels and make available to them the services equal to those of asylum seekers and migrants that have arrived in the UK - such as, but not limited to, free accommodation, free meals, access to medical care (including drug and alcohol support)

More details

If the government can provide these services to asylum seekers at taxpayers' expense then they can also provide the same levels of support for UK citizens - some of which may have paid into the welfare system, may be HM Service veterans, may have fallen on hard times, may need mental health support. People shouldn't be sleeping on the streets, cold and hungry, whilst we provide alternative services to people seeking asylum in the UK.
