Thousands of people are going to be made homeless due to public spending cuts.
These cuts are going to mean a rise in unemployment, further repossessions and cuts in housing benefit .
Shelter says that retired people, disabled people, working families and carers are going to be the hardest hit and that this will trigger more homelessness than we have witnessed since the 1980s.
London is predicted to be the worst affected, forcing a movement of less well off people from the centre of London to outer boroughs, placing greater financial pressures on local authorities, which have to find homes, school places as well as social care for the newly arrived families.
This is going to mean a "cleansing" of central London of not so well off families.
Shelter states that specific London households presently receiving housing benefit are going to find a shortfall of about £1,548 per month to meet their housing costs.
The future in terms of home repossessions looks bleak.
