00:00What's your view of Sheffield getting a public space protection order in the

00:04city centre? I think yeah obviously but you know obviously a lot of these people

00:13yeah it's essentially it's a good it's a good move yeah I've worked in social

00:20services for a long long time and a lot of these people have got nowhere else to

00:35house you can give them everything you give them money you can give them food
