Disgusting: Mother of one recieves widespread criticism after she disgracefully criticises Manchester Arena homeless hero Stephen Jones after he was given a new home




A 22 year old woman has been the subject of widespread criticism on social media in the past few days after she disgracefully begrudged a homeless man who has been dubbed a hero for his brave efforts whilst helping the wounded and dying during the Manchester Arena bombing.

The backlash of criticism which has been circulating across Facebook in recent days has come after the woman Emily Walton, 22, wrote a disgusting and harsh rant about the brave man Stephen Jones who was re-housed after his terrifying ordeal.

Mr Jones who came to the world’s attention just under two weeks ago was praised by many from far and wide after he helped the badly injured survive during the recent bombing that took the lives of 22 innocent people and severely injured 59 others.

However even though many feel the courageous but down on his luck man deserved his new home, Ms Walton doesn’t agree after she labeled the gesture as a disgrace and questioned why Mr Jones was given such generosity before her.

In the detailed post the disgruntled mum wrote: “F**k you world homeless man in Manchester offered a house and job for helping in terror attack and people like me and chaz cant get a place f**k you England.”

Although after a lengthy debate on the social media website the young mum refused to agree with those who believed that the courageous man deserved a new home, even when a friend tried to point out that the man had risked his life to help injured children.

The mum-of-one, who has been waiting for social housing for over a year, replied that she “didn’t give a s***.”

She then added: ‘He’s probably drugged up on heroin and still gets a place’.
