Commitment seems to be about rough sleepers rather than generality of homeless. Agree that on day we take office bit isn't capable of delivery but starting the ball rolling would be more than has been done in last few years. One of Major's achievements was to get to grips with endemic rough sleeping in the late eighties/early nineties.
Examples like that in BBC are tough to crack but I think that if living on a bench really is a lifestyle choice then there's a difficult balancing act between their rights and duty of authority to keep facilities maintained.
