Ban anti-homeless spikes, campaigners urge

It comes after several Tesco branches were forced to remove “anti-homeless” spikes from near their doorways.

Say No to Spikes campaigners will join the massive People’s Assembly march and rally in London on Saturday, racheting up the pressure on companies and councils who dare to use similar devices.
