A Soup Kitchen Under Siege: The True Face of Britain's Homelessness Crisis The plight of Friends of Essex & London Homeless (FOELH) in Charing Cross, Westminster, highlights a disturbing trend in how local authorities treat vulnerable individuals.

Council complaints about "crowds of vulnerable people" gathering at the soup kitchen are disingenuous. They know that homelessness is a symptom, not a cause, of deeper social issues.
