A recent report shows that the number of Danes who have lost their homes have incresed by 23 percent. It explains that number of people I found sleeping in parks when I visited Copenhagen the last time.
They are not belonging to a group of people who is plastered all over both international media and even Danish media. They are not getting the attention down in the European Union.
They will have to stay homeless and sleep outside risking death every winter depending of how tough it is. Homeless shelters are few and poorly supervised so they can get robbed if they sleep inside. Outside they also risk being center of assault by rich Danes who don't like that they choose their neighborhood to sleep in.
It is not a very fun life to live.
Maybe they should migrate to Sweden and ask for asylum. It seems that it the only way to get help these days. I do of course realize that it is not fun to live in a country with a civil war going on. But do die due to the cold is not a fun destiny either.
The authorities claim that they cannot help the homeless people because there are no cheap housing available which is a lie. There are plenty of empty cheap houses in large part of Denmark but Danes cannot move freely if they are among the poor homeless people. They are tied to their case worker and other towns where housing are cheap don't want them as taxpaying citizens even if they manage to turn their lives around because the risk could also be that they end up of some kind of disability benefit and that kind of gamble they are not willing to take.
So people can come from countries thousand of miles from Denmark and get a cheap simple heated room to live in while Danes who had parents paying taxes for a full life, gets nothing.
Understand if you can. I cannot.
