Attacks by Rohingya Muslim insurgents on the Myanmar security forces in Rakhine state triggered a response by the army and Buddhist vigilantes so brutal a senior U.N. official denounced it as a textbook example of ethnic cleansing.Days, weeks and months after the Aug. 25 violence, more than 600,000 Rohingya fled to Muslim Bangladesh, trekking over mountains and through forests and rice fields inundated by monsoon rain.

Many of the refugees were traumatized, exhausted and hungry, some wounded by bullets, knives or clubs, many with burns. Many women said they had been raped.
All of the refugees brought accounts of a campaign of murderous violence and arson by the Myanmar security forces and Buddhist civilians that they believed was aimed at driving them out of the country.
Mostly Buddhist Myanmar denies the accusations.

Myanmar says the rebels responsible for the Aug. 25 attacks on about 30 security posts and an army camp - the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army - are terrorists and it is they who unleashed most of the violence and arson that reduced hundreds of Rohingya villages nestled in emerald-green rice fields to grey ash.

The Rohingya have long faced discrimination and repression in Rakhine where bad blood with ethnic Rakhine Buddhists, stemming from violence by both sides, goes back generations.
Rohingya are not regarded as an indigenous ethnic minority in Myanmar - the government even refuses to recognise the term "Rohingya", instead labelling them illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. Most have been denied citizenship under a law that links nationality to ethnicity.

They have long lived under apartheid-like conditions, with little access to even the limited opportunities in education and employment open to their Buddhist neighbours in one of Myanmar's poorest regions.
About one million Rohingya were believed to have been living in Rakhine state before the latest violence. Bangladesh was already home to 400,000 of them who had fled earlier repression.

Bangladesh, one of the world’s poorest and most crowded countries, initially said the Rohingya were not welcome and ordered border guards to push them back.

But it quickly changed its stand in the face of the scale of the exodus and began gearing up, with the help of U.N. and other aid agencies, to cope with the fastest-developing refugee crisis the world had seen in years.The crisis has raised grave doubts about Myanmar's transition from military-ruled pariah to budding democracy, and about the commitment to human rights of the democracy leader who struggled to end nearly 50 years of harsh military rule - Aung San Suu Kyi.The generals remain in full charge of security under a constitution they drafted, even though Suu Kyi runs the government.

Analysts say Suu Kyi has to avoid angering the army and alienating supporters by being seen to take the side of a Muslim minority that enjoys little sympathy in a country that has seen a surge of Buddhist nationalism.Nevertheless, the failure of the Nobel peace laureate to speak out forcefully in defence of the Rohingyawould seem to have irreparably damaged her reputation overseas.The international community is demanding that the Rohingya be allowed to go home in safety, and Bangladesh and Myanmar have begun talks on repatriation, but huge doubts remain about the Rohingyaever being able to return in peace to rebuild their homes and till their fields.

Outside London's Piccadilly theatre where tickets cost up to 110 pounds and a banner advertising the musical "Annie" reads "It's a hard knock life", Bryan and Kevin sleep in small tents on the street.
They are among almost 1,000 people who sleep rough in the British capital, according to official figures, while more than 4,000 are on the streets across the country every night.

Andrew, who now has a place to live but returns to hang out with his homeless friends under the bridge, recalls how he was offered drugs on his first night on the streets: "I said 'no mate, I'm not into that' and he said 'It’s a free trial, no strings.'"While he has escaped the streets, Andrew is pessimistic about John's future. "He won't get himself off the streets, it’s almost impossible without help," he said.As to the financial impact, the National Audit Office, parliament's spending watchdog, said local authorities had spent 1.15 billion pounds ($1.54 billion) on homelessness services in 2015-16. 26 OCT 2017.

But critics say the Conservatives, who have been in power since 2010, have done little to find solutions and warn that the problem could get even worse."We heard that over the next 10 years, if the current trajectory stays as it is, the 160,000 people who are homeless in a year could increase by 25 percent and the 9,100 people sleeping rough could rise by 76 percent," the PAC report said.

Bryan, 51, who last year nearly died from pneumonia, became homeless after personal problems led him to drink and drugs.
"It's worse than it used to be right now, but I think it's down to a lot of things," he says. "The way people are now - everything is going up and costing more and then the other stuff, services and care, humanity, it's going down."
There is wide agreement that the problem has become worse in the last seven years, leading to criticism of the Conservative government's approach and accusations that its austerity policies, including changes to welfare payments for housing, are partly to blame.

In a report this week, parliament's Public Accounts Committee (PAC) called the extent of homelessness across England "a national crisis".
"The latest official figures hammer home the shameful state of homelessness in England and the abject failure of the government's approach to addressing the misery suffered by many thousands of families and individuals," PAC chairman Meg Hillier said.

"People come from out of town into the city at Christmas - you make more money - so it's harder for us who are here all the time," said Jimmy, 51, who originally hails from Glasgow in Scotland.

NAO head Amyas Morse said in September the government's "recent performance in reducing homelessness therefore cannot be considered value for money."The government has set a target of halving rough sleeping by 2022 and abolishing it by 2027. Last week, Prime Minister Theresa May told lawmakers the government would spend 500 million pounds on tackling homelessness and was putting in projects to tackle rough sleeping."We do not want to see anybody who is homeless or anybody who is sleeping rough on our streets," May said.

There is both a human and financial cost to the problem. The average age of death of someone who is rough-sleeping is 47 and people living on the street are 17 times more likely to be the victims of violence than those in settled accommodation.
"I'm getting to a point where I can't do it anymore, I'm trying to save my money but it's hard," said John, 19, one of a small group of men living under Waterloo Bridge

Meanwhile for some of those who have been homeless for a number of years, getting off the streets can be difficult, especially for those battling drug additions.
One of those is Bryan outside the Piccadilly Theatre. Despite his problems, he says he refuses to take any money from children, recalling how one girl recently tried to give him her pocket money.
"Afterwards I sat and I cried," he said.

The charity Shelter estimates more than 300,000 people in Britain are homeless, a figure which has risen by 13,000 in a year. It says one in every 200 people in England are homeless and 128,000 children will be without a home this Christmas.
Official figures show that there were 4,134 rough sleepers counted on a single night in autumn 2016, an increase of 134 percent since 2010 when there were fewer than 1,800.
