Very reminiscent of these homeless Londoners in 1989 in Don McCullin's haunting documentary. Here, nowadays, they include 'failed' immigrants, as well as the general homeless, alcoholics, both young and old, male and female. Some with dogs (seemingly) cared for, as an added lure to gain a few centimes from pet lovers, and more probably for friendship. Small tents are issued to some, so alongside the cardboard cities and anonymous coffin shape rolls of dirty bedding we have the tent cities, all still as depressing and shocking as London 1989 13 April 2010 Paris -21 years later there are numerous beggars on most streets in the city centre.
