I am sorry I disagree. I wish that you were right but they only have a duty to advise you unless you fall into certain groups. Homelessness act 2002.

Don't mix up homelessness and being destitute they are separate entities.

Section 18 of the Care Act 2014 Part 1 makes it obligatory for Councils to look after adults from both their own local authority area as well as adults from other LA areas.

Prior to the Care Act 2014, some of the obligation was under the National Assistance Act 1948.

Children are taken care of under other legislation.

It's quite saddening to read the replies to my earlier post, according to them i'm not only mental, i'm a conspiracy theorist and a supporter of child molesting... all of this because I dare challenge a point of view.

Very sad, especially in this day and age of information available to all frown

Bye Wiki Wirral, i'd rather not associate myself with such intolerance wink

Jeffrey you don't need to leave, my reference to kiddie fiddling was not directed at you personally but at the church and all religions. We all have different opinions.

I wouldnt take such comments to heart jeffrey , at least one was aimed at unsavoury aspects of religion , not at you personally , and other ones (like David Ike one) , just the sort of blunt and teasing banter you get on forums when people are challenging each others beliefs . Everyones views are welcome here , we wouldnt have a forum worth reading,without many different and varied points of view .

Many forummers here are perhaps a little less staid, formal and serious in their approach than others,and their dark humour , takes some time to appreciate. Why dont you hang around a bit , and you'll see that seeming intolerance is balanced with humour , friendliness not to mention a bit of 'Devils Advocate' and baiting if things get too boring .

Jeffrey, why be such a defeatist and walk away from the debate? You quote the Scriptures but don't feel you want to defend your views. This is a forum and we all have different opinions and like to thrash things out on here, that's what makes it so interesting. Whether you right or wrong if you don't like being criticized and questioned on your posts then maybe Wiki is not for you.

Jeffrey, don't go because already people are asking you to stay. That must mean something to you. It means you have been listened to. You should have seen some of the comments I have had about my choice of religion. Sometimes I felt like a battered fish. I don't care, because it means something to me and I'm not about to deny,just to please others. Some blame religion for a lot of things, without understanding that it it's some of the rogue people that give it a bad name and not the religion.

A bit like saying all people who live in Wallasey and Birkenhead are thugs and drug addicts living on cloud cuckoo . The very same people would not like that opinion.

All you need to do is come back and say, OK I'll stay. Then listen for the cheers and all those thugs and druggies from Birkenhead and all the pirates of Wallasey can take a running jump laugh .

Granny I am neither a druggie or a thug ! I may be a bit of a pirate though smile. But in answer to your post I have to say I have never heard of Wallasey or Birkenhead being used for an excuse for wars and terrorism. Seems to me religion can cause a lot of suffering and I have yet to hear a good explanation of any good it does. Churches that hold more wealth than a lot of international businesses do but still beg for our coppers. I've yet to hear of any proof of your god and his lad. Religion to me is just a cult like any other. I don't say this to offend it is just my opinion. X

So you admit yourself that religion is used as an excuse for wars.

How do you know the Churches beg for our coppers ? You don't go to Church. Do you give your coppers to charities ?

For someone with very strong views there are no answers. It's something you would have to find for yourself. For those who understand, no explanation is needed, for those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.

Lollipop, that was exactly the intention, and both feet ! laugh
