If a person so very unfortunate as to have no home is strong enough to maintain their dignity in the face of that public adversity, I'd imagine they can manage public consumption of a cup of hot soup without shame.

But I'm sure they appreciate Dublin City Council's concern.

No, they weren't talking about their shame.

They were talking about the shame of real people who count, not the poor that Dublin City Council would rather fuck off out of sight and die.
