Another great video pal. This is tragic and yet paradoxically enlightening for many reasons. Let me try to explain. The world appears to be upside down and inside out right now. Wasting money on rainbow coloured zebra crossings whilst there are war veterans living rough on the same streets is a mind numbing metaphor? It seems vaguely ridiculous. In my opinion it’s a deliberate comedy of errors in which we are losing our communities, our culture, our religious heritage and our way of life. Places left to rot are like an abandoned child, with no direction, with no hope, with no future -it’s so so sad. How can there be a homeless epidemic and yet we are housing so many immigrants and refugees first? A blind man can see that this issue is manifesting daily. I should add that my heart also goes out to those people fleeing any war torn place but how is our priority not to care for our own? Does charity not begin at home anymore? Apparently not? I believe due to numerous and multiple mitigating circumstances, this present horror is being deliberately cultivated. Why? It’s to create division and an increase in abject poverty. What any other conclusion can any sane person deride from this?? The present system is designed to suppress and this situation is by no mean’s an accident. Your amazing work is shining an important and imperative light on the dark, neglected and forgotten corners of our world. It’s blatant, it’s barbaric and there will be repercussions because of it. These seaside resorts are like a relic of a bygone era, the old school holiday beacons of yesterday year, now like ancient civilisations. These crumbling, decaying, monstrosities that sadly reflect and highlight the problems we have today. I mean what chance have the working classes of Rhyl, Skegness, Scarborough , Blackpool, Southport etc…got? Either Bob Hope or no hope! Another factor is modernisation, increasing AI and advances in technology like we’ve never seen before. Industries are on their knees and it doesn’t take Nostradamus to see that huge swathes of future unemployment are abound in the not too distant future. This is already creating a sub culture of homelessness, I would argue the likes of which we have never seen before. Add to this present mess, wars, corrupt governments, a woke generation, a lack of a skilled labour force and what do we have? Connect these inter changeable issues together and you have the predicaments and realities that you objectively highlight so well. I’m not that old and yet Liverpool is becoming more and more stranger and unrecognisable by the day? It’s like a mini down town LA and it’s happening in major cities everywhere! Unfortunately human life appears as disposable as the cardboard boxes they live in. It seems so obvious yet if anything these situations are being allowed to manifest. There’s a fraud system that makes it nigh on impossible for a man, woman or child to get off the streets which is the equivalent of a legal crime-whilst open borders are all the rage?? A big hooray for common sense and “the way to go”. However to end in a positive “you” and your channel give me hope. You are the way to go my good man. You are an example that the younger generation are not all lost to corporate greed and self interest. You make a mockery of the todays Tik Tok let’s get famous for 2 minutes generation. You are standing for something important and of innate value. You are the “new hope of a future”. You are revealing the pink elephant in the room and it’s impressive. You clearly have moral fibre and a backbone, with a compassionate heart and an intelligent over sight. You make the unseen seen and the unheard heard-you give a voice and a face to humanity-bravo!! All I can do is encourage you to keep on keeping on and to please continue with your endeavours-because the world needs more people like you in it. 🙏❤️.x

Wow! What a lovely comment. When you believe in something, we have to fight for it. When we see injustice (which is what Adikia translates to) we have to fight even harder than we’ve fought before. This country is lost, because of everything you’ve said. It’s heartbreaking, Liverpool itself has lost its character. I always think of my Grandads could see this now, they’d be embarrassed and this is what makes me want to do something about this. I’m a small channel, but if it can cause a slight ripple, who knows where it can lead and what it can do. I appreciate your comment, support and honesty more than you know. Thank you so much.

Unfortunately the boats do not have a direct impact on the people that were shown as homeless in this video, the people shown as homeless did not originate from Blackpool, so these people should be transported back to the local council areas that they have migrated from to let their own local council take are of their needs.

God bless you All.🙏

3 years I did on these streets in Blackpool and know most of these people. Sad to see.. The truth is anyone in Blackpool knows there’s 2 ways out when struggling with addiction. Prison or Body Bag.. I found rehab after losing my best friend in Blackpool I’m now clean in a good life but the amount of people who died next to me on these streets is uncountable

After more than half a century being miserable in the UK, next time I visit dear old Blighty I would like to pay a visit to Blackpool for the first time in over 40 years. Sad how the place has gone down; almost as if someone has given it a jinx :)

I'm sure the government could find a hotel willing to take in the homeless and give them food, money, phones, bikes, clothing grants etc or is that just for dinghy Divers

I grew up in Blackpool in the 50s and 60s and it had its seedy side but was nowhere like it is now. I saw a sign in a Hotel recently’No Needles’The arrival of the cheap foreign holidays in the 1970s started the decline ..it was a great place when I grew up with a football team feared by many too!!

6k for some paint on the ground. Wtf Well thats means a few local councillor back handers

One off licence for every 250 people; 50% of pregnant women continue to smoke; drink and drug addiction everywhere. So many lost souls with troubles seem to wash up in places like Blackpool. The most hedonistic place in Britain and one of the poorest. Wonder if there's a connection between the two?

Let's be honest do you really think that some of these homeless people up and down the country would pay there rent, council tax, Gas, Electric, water bills if they were given a flat or house.

I think the least the government in this country can do, is give them the opportunity to attempt to live a ‘normal’ life (if we can even call working round the clock and paying stupid amounts of money on council tax, rent, gas etc ‘normal’) as every person interviewed on this channel is different, some admit they prefer to live on the street as they dont want to be back in that rat race of work, bills, sleep repeat but there are some on here who want nothing more than to have their own home to go back to every night.

I feel depressed just looking at a video of Blackpool, ive not been since 2017 and it was awful then, homeless everywhere drug addicts all over rubbish all over the streets.

It absolutely disgusts me how the homeless are treated but the non contributing people that arrive in boats with their hands out get put straight into a nice warm hotel with top security, so we can’t see or question where our tax money really gets spent. If they (government) can do that then they show us that they don’t care about the British homeless or even the British culture when they let towns crumble like Blackpool.

Hats off to you for paying it forward at that cafe! Shocking scenes for these homeless fellers particularly the ex vets. As he said i agree i am far from racist but the metropole is a shocking example of how this country has gone to the dogs. Someone whose pledged his life for this country is sleeping in a tram shelter overlookikg a warm building that provides washing facilities and hot meals. Shocking

The people need help. Having said that the police should be keeping them from begging on the front and in the town.

Why not let the homeless rent unused shops & buildings for a small fee, as long as the amenities are turned on, also furnish them with charity shop furniture. At least they'll have somewhere dry to live.

There shouldn't be any reason for anyone to be homeless when there's so many empty buildings.

This is the first time I have seen your video's on youtube. I have lived in Blackpool all my life and unfortunately your video does not show the full cross section of the local society. The first guy who spoke to who was homeless was Scottish, and the second guy I am unsure where he originates from but he did state that he had lived in Liverpool. People complain about the Blackpool council not homing the homeless population, unfortunately there is limited housing stock available for the council to home people like you have shown in your video. Perhaps it would be helpful if you asked the homeless people you interview where they have come from and why have they come to Blackpool. I love living in Blackpool, I think the place is great, but someone seriously needs to look at the population that have moved to Blackpool for various reasons as I believe some of the reasons are misguided beliefs. I am not trying to be disrespectful to anyone and in this day and age no one should have to live on the streets! However this is the reality of the state of the world we now live in.

He didn't go rehab cos seen him pissed out head yesterday..
