Alright, I’ve heard some dumb ideas in my time, but this one might take the cake. The Government’s actually floating the idea of banning people from rough sleeping in our city centres — banning homelessness.Then they deny it. Then they confirm it. Then they back-pedal. It’s like watching a policy written on a napkin after a long lunch.But here’s the real issue — you can’t solve homelessness by hiding it. You can’t PR-spin poverty out of existence. We’ve got people sleeping under bus stops in Auckland because there’s not even a men’s night shelter in our biggest city.I’m joined by Ashley Church and former National Minister Maurice Williamson, two sharp thinkers who don’t mince words.Join this channel to get access to perks:
