ARE YOU NOT ASHAMED?

THOUSANDS of families are preparing to spend Christmas in temporary accommodation as Scothousing land's emergency deepens.

Shocking stats show that parents with children who declare themselves homeless in some parts of the country can now face a wait of more than a year before a permanent residence is found.

In Edinburgh, the average wait for families is 611 days the highest in Scotland. In Glasgow it is 381 days, and in Midlothian 483 days.

The number of Scots with mortgages who fear losing their homes due to the cost of living crisis has also risen by 30 per cent in the last year.
