Homeless Evicted Ahead of G7
Homeless people housed temporarily in Cornish Hotels have been evicted ahead of the G7. Cornwall Council say 130 people are affected but reports in other media suggest several hundred more are affected.
Homeless newspaper ‘The Big Issue’ says:
“A rough sleeper who was given accommodation during the Covid-19 pandemic has claimed he was kicked out of his hotel to “make room for the G7 summit”.
“Stuart Lee, 44, told The Big Issue he had been staying in the Premier Inn hotel in Helston, Cornwall, for five months through the Everyone In scheme before he was asked to leave on Friday May 28.
