And here's a handy graphic, the UK shows what bad planning looks like, setting an example for others to not follow (we remain optimistic that Labour will get going on this soon, 30% more homelessness money for English LAs is a good sign)

Does Gen Z have it tougher than previous generations? Almost one third of 25-27 yr olds live with parents and the barriers to independent housing are rising and rising, an impossible situation, there has to be more investment in social housing.

Quite. Let's be careful with a lot of (well intentioned) oversimplification and individual pathology (and not really acknowledging the evidence base or the huge efforts of everyone already actively working to end homelessness) from people who wear shiny things on their heads.
Homelessness isn't only rough sleeping. The legal definition of homelessness is lacking a secure place where you are entitled to live or can reasonably stay. This includes sofa surfing, living in a B&B, hostel or other temporary accommodation. #Homewards
