This councilor is an idiot, one of the homeless men interviewed is waiting for a housing NZ house, he is obviously trying to get off the street, but has nowhere to go in the meantime, so where does this councilor propose they should go?

This one of those zero tolerance conflicting conundrums society has to make a decision on. If Boobs on Bikes is OK, why aren't homeless people? It is make-your-mind-up time folks.
