How very unusual for this govt.... 
Disgraceful. This shouldn't be happening, no one should be homeless.
It wasn't always like this. It doesn't have to be like this.
Once upon a time decades ago, in 1935 " Then Minister of Housing Walter Nash told New Zealand it could not prosper or progress with a population that "lack[s] the conditions necessary for a 'home' and 'home life', in the best and fullest meaning of those words".
So basically saying that no one could prosper until all were housed. Which is a very different view to the present & some previous govts.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
