Helping Homeless Asians in Southall

Do you have sympathy for homeless Asian people who are here illegally? Plus Nihal catches up on your weekend whinges in Letting Off Steam.

Do you have sympathy for Asian homeless people who are here illegally?

Tonight's Asian Network documentary looks at the problem of homelessness in Southall. It's estimated that around 200 people - mostly illegals - are living on the streets and under the bridges. It's created tensions within the local community with some residents saying the area has become a no go zone with problems of theft and drug abuse. Do you think enough is being doing to help these people. Would you be reluctant to offer a place to stay to someone who was illegal and homeless? Is it the responsibility of the local community to help people that are homeless?

After 2, we'll catch up on your weekend whinges with 'letting off steam' What has wound you up this weekend? Maybe its knowing you're going to be hosting at Christmas? Maybe you feel pressured to go to your work Christmas party? Or maybe you just need to get something off your chest?
