(ANSA) - LONDON, FEBRUARY 27 - There are too many homeless people in the United Kingdom that for a decade have boasted macroeconomic data on GDP growth. And in recent years the total has grown. Conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson admitted it today, calling the emergency "totally unacceptable" and launching the headquarters of The Connection, a charity that deals with homelessness, a national initiative of the ad hoc government. Ilpiano foresees the extra allocation of 236 million pounds (almost 280 million euros) to help those living on the road. People whose numbers "are far too high", observed the prime minister, evoking data according to which it would have seen a slight decline in the last 12 months but after several years of constant increase. Now, Johnson added, it was about "addressing the situation and affecting these numbers to a very, very relevant extent". "These wonderful people - he said addressing the homeless people present - can change their lives if they have help".
