House homeless families at Buckingham Palace
Today the Prince William, Duke Of Cambridge told the British People that we have a chance to save young lives (1). I would like to tell him the same.
Buckingham Palace has 240 bedrooms (2), some of which could be used to house homeless families now that homeless shelters are overstretched (3).

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for deciding who can stay in Buckingham Palace. You might like to sign the petition below, which calls for the proposed £369 million for Buckingham Palace renovations to be used to fund social housing instead:
