The person I spoke to won't stay in free shelters, her phone got stolen and she said addicted people make it difficult to sleep, some are also aggressive. A few others are the same, at least the Belfastians are generally sound and give food/money.
Of course treatment for drug addiction is another area the UK is not great at...

Even in greater Manchester where there is the ‘bed every night’ scheme, it can’t be done.
Some refuse and others find it more chaotic/dangerous than being on the street.
