LABOUR will finally tear up "shameful" 200-year-old laws that criminalise rough sleepers.

- EXCLUSIVE BY DAVE BURKE Political Correspondent

Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner last night announced she will abolish the Vagrancy Act, which makes rough sleeping illegal in England and Wales.

The 1824 legislation has long been criticised by homelessness charities.

It will be included as an amendment to the flagship Crime and Policing Bill with new laws instead targeting organised begging and trespassing.
