Ican’t understand this housing crisis. Nobody needs to be homeless. We have 200,000 empty homes in England, with 4,297 in Birmingham alone. And that’s only the houses. There are countless empty cinemas, theatres, hospitals and stations that have been derelict for decades, and probably a few bunkers if you’re worried about nuclear holocaust. What a waste. Within 30 minutes’ walk of my home, there is a huge theatre (empty since 1989), a hospital (empty for decades) and a nursing home (empty since 2003), all sitting rotting while dithering owners make up their minds what to do with them. Imagine what perfect flats, hostels, community centres and shelters they could have made in the meantime.
