    When someone has to resort to sleeping in a tent I wonder where & how they are expected to find £1,000 to pay a civil fine.

    Let's not be like this or Brighton or all those other communities that seem to believe the answer to homelessness is to move the problem to someone else's patch.

    It is important to remember that the vast majority of people, especially in places like Dover, are no more than 1 month's income (from whatever source) from running the risk of homelessness. We should be more understanding and compassionate.

    Of course we should monitor, manage and punish professional beggars, those causing nuisance e.g. day drinkers and those shoplifting for whatever reason.
