‘LION OF LONDON BRIDGE’ ROY IS OUT OF HOSPITAL – AND LIVING IN A HOSTEL AS NO FLATS AVAILABLE FOR HERO.


Millwall Fan Roy Larner: "I have been living on friends sofas,I have been trying for flat for two to three months"

HOUSING LONDON BRIDGE TERROR ATTACK


Roy Larner suffered several stab wounds after taking on three terrorists during the London Bridge attack on June 3



Millwall Fan Roy Larner: "I have been living on friends sofas,I have been trying for flat for two to three months"


Millwall fan Roy Larner has been discharged from hospital but is now living in a hostel

The Millwall fan who took on three terrorists during the London Bridge attack has swapped his hospital bed for a hostel.

Roy Larner, 47, who shouted ‘F**k you, I’m Millwall’ at the attackers as he confronted them, has been placed in a hostel in Brixton by Southwark Council until a council flat becomes available.
The father-of-one, from Peckham, was discharged from St Thomas’ Hospital last Thursday, June 15, after having surgery for several stab wounds. He was rushed to hospital by two Peckham police officers after he was stabbed while attempting to fend off three terrorists in the Black and Blue restaurant and bar in Borough on June 3.
Roy, hailed a hero and ‘the Lion of London Bridge’ for his brave actions, said he was unsure how long he would have to stay in a hostel – but that it could be months or even a year. “I could be there for three months or six months – or a year,” he told the News.
“They [the council] have been quite quick to put me in a hostel in Brixton because they’ve got nothing in Southwark.
“It’s just a room with a shower in with shared kitchen facilities.”

Roy said he had been trying to get a council flat for the last two or three months and had been staying on friends’ sofas. “I think I have to go through an assessment that take 56 days, but because of what’s gone on they [the council] are sorting it quicker,” he said.
Roy, previously unemployed before the attack, should be starting a security job in the near future after being inundated with job offers since his story went viral.
He said he was recovering well and felt lucky to be alive – and had even been back to the Black and Blue at the weekend for the first time since the attack.
“It’s still painful around my stomach and chest and I’m having to have therapy on my arms, but so far so good, I haven’t had any flashbacks or anything,” he said.
“It was nice going back to the Black and Blue; the staff met me and the manager and it just helped me get my bearings of what happened on the night.


“Millwall have got me a season ticket now,” he added. “They’ve given me and the other Millwall fans caught up in the attack complimentary tickets.”


Cllr Stephanie Cryan, Southwark Council’s cabinet member for housing, said: “We have arranged temporary accommodation for Mr Larner and will assist him in finding suitable accommodation.”

There must be flats available?

Even if only a temporary measure for a few months and they can help him find somewhere else. I've seen it been done before.

Agree with the word disgrace.

Bang out of order. The sooner Roy is sorted out the better-which means Sadistic Khan MUST get it done first thing Monday-and if it means he pisses off his own then so be it.

Millwall and Chelsea simply don't mix and he had enough trouble with an Arsenal supporter! LOL :laughing6:

Seriously, this is disgraceful treatment. IMHO he saved lives and (football matters aside) deserves huge credit for standing up to the evil scum that purport to act in the name of a 'religion' they so plainly have no real knowledge of or respect for! :evil:

Dando,

This is actually nothing to do with Tories, in fact these areas are Labour run areas.
Maybe Jeremy Corbyn can help out, he helps out everyone but the British people, oops he's in Glastonbury.




The prob is its the do-gooders that have messed the UK up big time and they've got their priorities wrong.

This guy is a genuine hero - if anyone deserves a decent place to live then it is him. Does anyone have any links to a main official epetition or similar that we can all sign and share to get this prioritised. I'm happy posting up on all the Championship and other league forums to get this out there.

If he was muslim he would have had a house no problem. You have hate preachers sprouting hate on our streets and are put up in million pound mansions because they have 8 kids and 3 wives and guess what they dont pay a penny. The whole country is fucked and it wont get better only worse. Why should my kids eat halal food in they're school. I wasnt told they were going to do this just put upon us. Imagine serving pork to muslim kids in school, it would never happen. We cannot say a thing these days as we would be racist...total bollocks!!!

It is a disgrace that he hasn't been homed, he won't be a priority though, assuming he is on his own, its people with kids that will get priority whatever their religion or colour.

I am as far detached as your can possibly get from being branded on the left but why people have to bring out the 'if he was a Muslim' line etc is beyond me and just plays into the hands of antifa and other far left groups who brand everyone with a view different to their own as racist.

Its cos he is a single bloke with no dependents under 16, it would be exactly the same if he was Muslim, Jewish, Hindu or from Jupiter.

Lets just call it what it is, a disgrace and leave it at that :thumbup:

While I agree with the main points, the guy has had 55 grand donated to him via various funding sites. He can afford to sort out his own flat. Also, I I agree with RV's post, it's nothing to do with his colour/religion, all about his circumstances. In fact when the authorities find out about his unexpected windfall, all his benefits will sadly be stopped.

Exactly, on top of that the council have found him temporary accommodation down the road and say in that article that they are rushing his application due to what happened. Not sure what else any of you expect :laughing5:
