That story is two and a half years old.

When I'm Supreme Ruler of Britain I'd ban feeding the homeless and begging too. But I would provide proper facilities for the homeless instead, which I doubt the tories would bother with.

Yeah my bad, I obviously missed the story at the time and just assumed it was recent when passed on to me. I wonder if this council got this idea -passed?

Apparently, they reached a compromise. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-13379005 I think they didn't like seeing homeless people, spoiling the look of the area. It was Westminster, under Shirley Porter (Thatcher Mk II) who hatched the plan to ship council tenants out to neighbouring boroughs so that they could attract better-off Tories to live there instead. Just Google "Shirley Porter gerrymandering", you'll find it.

The last "Labour" administration didn't bother too much either.
