SOME 119 organisations called on the next government today to address migrant homelessness and reform the immigration system to prevent it from driving people onto the streets.

Homelessness charities including Crisis, Shelter and St Mungo’s and refugee organisations including Refugee Council and Praxis have written a letter to the leaders of the main political parties.

The signatories demanded the next government take action on migrant homelessness, highlighting how many are made “much more vulnerable to experiencing homelessness, or face additional barriers to moving on from homelessness” due to the current immigration system.
