Proceeding contribution from Adam Holloway (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 December 2020. It occurred during Debate on Winter Homelessness Support.


Winter Homelessness Support

I recall sitting outside Charing Cross station watching a guy drink water from a puddle like a dog, and up to several thousand people passed him before anyone did anything about it. Likewise, kids in the summer have a bit of a party and take loads of drugs, but the weather changes and they are addicted. They need to be got off the streets before what started as a party ends as a nightmare. Does my hon. Friend agree?
