another missed target

Governments are constantly being trapped by over-ambitious targets.
If I can't earn a fortune then I won't bother working for a living wage.

Remember? no child shall live in poverty. Now it's the demand to "end" rough sleeping. With the number of rough sleepers trebling since the target was set. (5th Aug)
Setting an impossible target prevents us from attempting to "reach the low hanging fruit" of simpler, achievable yet still worthwhile goals.


Not everyone wants a 4br 3-bath d-bt mcMansion.

In India, entire families live in sewer pipes that are waiting to be laid. The pipes provide shelter and security and a place to call home.

Forget the home for everyone mantra. Begin with shelter and security that is quick and cheap. And that is better than illegal camping on streets and in parks.

Begin to pick the low hanging fruit. At least it will help some people.
