There are 4,134 people estimated to be sleeping rough in the UK according to Crisis – up 16 % since 2015 .
The figures are more than likely to double amid a global economic crisis following the COVID-19 outbreak .
The Shelter campaign has already seen over 1,619 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Luke Hall MP that NO ONE should be sleeping rough amid the pandemic .
Rhys said : “ Around 18 months ago I was living on the street .

” “ It was good to see the government show compassion towards those sleeping rough by funding councils to offer them hotels during the pandemic .
It saved lives .
I want to thank you for that.

Travellers Henry Long, 19, Albert Bowers and Jessie Cole, both 18, caused outrage in the UK last week after shamelessly laughing and pretending to ‘snooze’ before being convicted of manslaughter at the Old Bailey.
The trio smiled as the court heard how a witness mistook the officer’s body for a “deer carcass” being pulled behind the getaway car reported The Sun.
The group wrote: “PC Harper and his families loss is both horrible and tragic. Those that did it got sentenced. At the same time they did not intend to murder PC harper hence manslaughter. At the same time it is not ok to use this to attack a whole community. This isn’t hard.”
Instead of calling out the vile criminals giving Travellers a bad name, the group attacked the press for being angry at a pair of killers who showed no remorse for their sick actions.
Maybe they should be offering support to PC Hapers widow and children, rather than defending cop killers.

US CONGRESSMAN Paul Gosar has slammed Big Tech in Silicon Valley following a shocking amount of censorship on sites like Twitter and Facebook.
Twitter, Facebook and Google all banned a video by the President in which a number of Yale PhD’s supported the controversial hydroxychloroquine anti-Malaria drug that is tipped to be a ‘cure’ for COVID-19.

“Half the population is being denied a voice. People who speak the truth are being shouted down using the most defamatory terms possible in an effort to intimidate and threaten.”
NEW BILL TO FIGHT CENSORSHIP

“The alternative to speech is action. It is no small matter to block free speech.”

politicalite--2020-07-30--BIBLE BAN: Bishops Fear Owning Bible Could Be ‘Hate Crime’ Under SNP ‘Hate Laws’

SCOTTISH Bishops have raised fears that possessing a Bible could become a ‘ hate crime ’ under the SNP ’ s draconian new blasphemy laws .
A number of Catholic bishops north of the border made the shock claims amid the controversial reforms being put through the Scottish Government ’ s new Hate Crime Bill by Nicola Sturgeon ’ s SNP .
The Scotsman reported that bishops have made a submission to MSPs ( Member of Scottish Parliament ) on Holyrood ’ s justice committee .
The Bishops ’ Conference of Scotland said : “ Any new law must be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the right to free speech , freedom of expression and freedom of thought , conscience and religion.
” With section five of the legislation creating an offence of possessing inflammatory material , they fear the “ low threshold ” in the proposed new laws “ could render material such as the Bible … as being inflammatory under the new provision ” .
The new Hate Crime and Public Order ( Scotland ) Bill will , if passed , also create an offence of “ stirring up hatred ” against a protected group @ @ @ @ @ @ @ groups .
The bishops warned “ how hatred is defined is not clear which leaves it open to wide interpretation ” , adding this “ could lead to vexatious claims having to be dealt with by police ” .
In their submission they also stressed “ criminalising conduct is a serious step that should not be taken lightly ” .
They argued rights to freedom of expression “ must be robust enough to protect the freedom to disagree ” .
The bishops highlighted their belief , published in response to the Scottish Government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that a person ’ s sex and gender are “ not fluid and changeable ” .
Anthony Horan , director of the Catholic parliamentary office , said : “ Whilst acknowledging that stirring up of hatred is morally wrong and supporting moves to discourage and condemn such behaviour , the bishops have expressed concerns about the lack of clarity around definitions.
” Its submission comes after The Law Society of Scotland said it had “ significant reservations regarding a number of the Bill ’ s provisions and the lack of clarity ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ claimed the Bill “ appears to paralyse freedom of speech in Scotland ” .
A Scottish Government spokesman said : “ Religious beliefs are an integral part of Scottish society and this Bill does not change that in any way .

The Scotsman reported that bishops have made a submission to MSPs (Member of Scottish Parliament) on Holyrood’s justice committee.
The Bishops’ Conference of Scotland said: “Any new law must be carefully weighed against fundamental freedoms, such as the right to free speech, freedom of expression and freedom of thought, conscience and religion.” With section five of the legislation creating an offence of possessing inflammatory material, they fear the “low threshold” in the proposed new laws “could render material such as the Bible … as being inflammatory under the new provision”.
The new Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Bill will, if passed, also create an offence of “stirring up hatred” against a protected group, expanding on existing laws protecting racial groups.
The bishops warned “how hatred is defined is not clear which leaves it open to wide interpretation”, adding this “could lead to vexatious claims having to be dealt with by police”. In their submission they also stressed “criminalising conduct is a serious step that should not be taken lightly”. They argued rights to freedom of expression “must be robust enough to protect the freedom to disagree”.
The bishops highlighted their belief, published in response to the Scottish Government’s proposed reforms of gender recognition, that a person’s sex and gender are “not fluid and changeable”. Anthony Horan, director of the Catholic parliamentary office, said: “Whilst acknowledging that stirring up of hatred is morally wrong and supporting moves to discourage and condemn such behaviour, the bishops have expressed concerns about the lack of clarity around definitions.” Its submission comes after The Law Society of Scotland said it had “significant reservations regarding a number of the Bill’s provisions and the lack of clarity”.
The Scottish Police Federation has also claimed the Bill “appears to paralyse freedom of speech in Scotland”.

LEADER of the Scottish Tories Jackson Carlaw has resigned from his post revealing he is not the best person to lead the party into the upcoming Scottish elections.
Carlaw said in a statement: “Given the importance I attach to the job, I’ve therefore decided to stand down with immediate effect.”
[I] simply believe that a new leader will be able, as we recover from the Covid-19 emergency, to make the case for the Scottish Conservatives and the union better than me,”
“That is all that matters.”
“Given the importance I attach to the job, I’ve therefore decided to stand down with immediate effect.”
The Scots MSP took over the Scottish wing of the party in February 2020 but was given the boot with his poor handling of holding Nicola Sturgeon to account amid the Coronavirus pandemic.
Ruth Davidson has been tipped to help bring the Scottish Conservatives back with a chance of winning, though sources close to Davidson said she will not return to lead the party.
