WHILE I was in St Helens town centre walking I found that in a number of shop doorways beggars were sat in them with bowls.
I realise that things might not be easy for all people but I thought that most people were eligible for some sort of assistance when times got bad. Or is it easier money to start begging?
The point is that a lot of people might not like walking past beggars shopping, which could result in yet a further decline in the town centre.
