UK government to double funding for homelessness programme by Christmas
Prime Minister Andy Burnham has promised that by Christmas every homeless person in England will be given a route off the streets. On Wednesday the budget will add £432 million to the £442 million already allocated, bringing the total to £874 million. The opposition criticises the plan, pointing to record levels of homelessness and Burnham's record as Mayor of Greater Manchester.
