So the poor woman is thrown onto the streets while her bastard husband gets to live in comfort. Look after yourself mate. Don't give up.
This story makes me ashamed to be British why is the government not helping our own, this poor lady needs help. It makes me sick to the stomach, our Government have loads of money to chuck at the illegal immigrants but this poor lady needs to be looked after and housed. This government is disgusting, they don't care about British people only themselves and the illegals who live a life of luxury compared to this poor soul. Its disgraceful her being on the streets.

What she's saying is just not adding up 5:28. That "wife cannot give evidence against her husband" is patently untrue. If she filed a police report she would be given shelter to the many women's only shelters that exist in the country. And that she cut ties with her family so that her husband doesn't hurt them? It just doesn't add up. Her unreliability aside, it's really up to her to save money for emergencies, be employable so that she can get a job and not be homeless, or else divorce her husband and take his money if she was a housewife. Her story doesn't add up at all...

Hi Sandra, if you see this please try contacting the women's refuges. I have stayed in a few because of DV, you shouldn't be on the streets. I'm not sure what their criteria is in terms of your homeless status tho, but find out & ring around. You might have to move area to find an available bed

The thing is if she has the ball rolling where she is with her health and homelessness, she would have to wait from scratch again. Like the lady said she has to comply with what they want. There are a lot of homeless women in Westminster
good luck girl
This is awful a lady of her age should be a prioriaty, its sad and shocking to see this hope she gets support, i know a guy who was living in sheds, at 67 but now hes in a shelted place in a nice area its not simple but there's hope, the guy did choose to live like that but in the end he was to old.
Sandra hoffe du wirst es bald wieder gut haben !!
Call framework to see what they can do please Sandra
My heart goes out to you,I hope you get all help you need,and I wish you all the best,
Because of domestic violence, would she've not been elligible for a Women's shelter. I find this so mean of the government that homeless people with no address are not qualified to get a job or appartment.

She has a prority need for housing so I don't know why they aren't helping her.

This is what happens to the poor and vulnerable native Brits because of the liblabcon parties we have had running the country for decades.
I just wish politicians would see this, it is so heartbreaking , British born people are not looked after but immigrants whether illegal / legal/ asylum seekers are put first we are know longer the land of milk & honey those days have long gone & why because our system has been abused, , the government can find millions for these people , we send money to countries in foreign aid, but our own British born regardless of colour or creed are forgotten or put to the bottom of the pile to just exist, what sort of life is it to exist when they have no hope of being able to turn their lives around ,
Why hasn't any organization stepped in to help her? Disgraceful. Can we have a follow up on her situation?
she looks 86.

This woman has lung cancer and she is living on the streets??? This is despicable and shocking!
Can she not get sheltered accommodation from the council because she's over 55 and ill??? It's expensive but she should be able to claim housing benefit to pay all or most of the rent.... even if it means leaving London?? Better to move if necessary and have a home.

So sad, but she's not intentionally homeless, she's 'fleeing domestic violence' and that's when she can get her local safeguarding team involved in rehousing her, surely, even the medical people she's involved with would know that, and they have their social workers who can help to refer her to the right departments for rehousing.
This is disgusting an homeless elderly woman out in the cold while illegals who have no status in the Uk are hosted in hotels.So wrong in so many ways .This government need to be abolished and sunak needs to be arrested for neglecting the poeple of the Uk and letting 3rd worlders into our borders. Get him out lock him up
This is how the government care s shame on you
When she gets a key worker,she can get a bank account.
Why didnt you call domestic vilonce office. They would have helped you... ❤❤ God bless you xx
She should be able to get a flat, or at least a room in a hotel for the presant.If the councils can do it for other countries citizens surely they can do it for their own citizens more so.😢

cant you use the job center as a home address to get benefits ?
This a o.g original granny but a g Stil. She seems like she's telling the truth. ❤. By Allah the almighty magnificent if i had a spare room id gladly give her it. She's correct tho if She has cancer she can get housed. About her benefits this is where she tripped up. You can be paid by npes national payment exemption service where you are sent a text message and you go to the post office with id and claim your money all you need is a care of address to get universal credit so I sort of believe her but still one should be cautious when engaging with road people's
First thing this Lady needs to do is ... GET OUT OF LONDON to somewhere where their more compassionate and understanding of your situation. They wouldn't allow this up north..I don't so think so anyway?????

Sorry ,she is lying.She would see an oncologist and have radiotherapy or chemotherapy .I dont believe she has cancer ,she claims not to have even seen an consultant..So she can not have been tested MRI CAT blood or diagnosed with lung cancer. Maybe she has mental ill health or drinks.Either way if she fled domestic violence, she should be rehoused.IF she drinks and didnt pay her rent after being housed the council are not required to house her again. What she says about not being able to charge her husband because as can't testify against him is also a lie.She is lying .
