The children who live in shipping containers: Thousands of homeless youngsters are being given temporary accommodation in storage units
Around 124,000 youngsters are living in cramped temporary accommodation
Converted shipping containers provided to families who have become homeless
Critics branded them dangerous, not fit to live in and often far away from other family members, friends and schools

    I mean yeah its not ideal but I can assure you it is still better than the living conditions for 80% of the world. Not ideal but they have a roof over there head and a bed to sleep in.

    It's way better than many on the world live in permanently, & certainly beats living on the streets.

    It's not ideal, no, but there's no such thing as an ideal world. If I'd been sleeping rough I'd bite your hand off to live in these conditions.

    Do I wish we all loved in good housing? Of course. It's just impossible though, & will never happen.

    Maybe if the Government had allowed Councils to spend their Right to Buy receipts on building new houses it would be substantially better.
