From BBC UK today:
The number of people living in temporary accommodation in England has hit a 25-year high, according to the latest official figures. Almost 105,000 households were in temporary accommodation, including more than 131,000 children, on 31 March this year.

From the Scottish Government in September 2022:
The latest statistics show that on 30th September 2022 there were 9,130 children in Scotland living in TA.

All things being equal (they’re not), England with 10 times the population might be expected to have 10 times the number of homeless children, 91 300, but has 131 000 or 30.3% more.
While the Scottish figures are, of course, unacceptable and further evidence that we must stick with the socialist policies of the SNP and its new FM as opposed to the brutal conservatism of the Labour Party under Starmar/Sarwar, it remains in the public interest to be aware that homelessness for children in England under the Cons is 30% higher than under the SNP in Scotland

Still, we can shout, “BBC left speechless at latest record breaking homeless figures in England.” and be totally accurate.

Never mind, they found a “Ferry Story” for the evening news 🙂

I have been a bit busy, and wondered if BBC Scotland also reported this story?

“Gap between number of richest and poorest students at university shrinks”
