Andy Burnham has said the government needs to be more “radical” to end homelessness, telling ITV News that the Home Office and the Treasury are making the problem worse.
In an exclusive interview ahead of the government’s publication of its long-awaited homelessness strategy, the Mayor of Greater Manchester called for a permanent return to the “everyone in” policy adopted during the pandemic, which saw the government house all rough sleepers to protect them from the virus.
Burnham vowed to end street homelessness in Greater Manchester when he was elected in 2017, and since then, rough sleeping has fallen by 42%.
He said the region’s ‘Bed Every Night’ policy is providing 600 rooms each night for rough sleepers, but nationally, there wasn’t funding to sustain it.
