Everyone share this, Leo says he has housed more people in Ireland over the last few year, but what about all of these Irish people still on the street with no hope, whilst Leo brings in the worlds homeless and gives them the best of houses

I live in Britain and the mass virtue signalling from the government is sickening for illegal immigrants while there is no care for UK nationals big contracts to help them no money to help us but we are the one's who creat the funds for this

Its good to see the homless people sticking together safety in homless people numbers

[@PhillipplaistedPlaisted-qu7nc]

If i was homless and had other homless friands and if i made a lot of money from begging i would give little bite to my homless friands and then at night wii would stick together for safety at night and look after each others stuff so no one takes our stuff and stick up for each other

[@annbarron7415]

We all know that this is the issue. It's time to close the border and start sending people home.
