William to be homelessness patron

Prince William has been named as a patron for the young people's homelessness charity Centrepoint.

The 23-year-old will be following in the footsteps of his mother, who became a patron to the charity in 1992.

Clarence House said William had spent the past two days working as a volunteer at Centrepoint

He said he was "deeply concerned" for people, especially the young, "who find themselves living on the streets or without a proper home".

4. Well, I'd pay to see that.
Unfortunately, the Halfwit lives on a different planet, and rarely sets foot on this one.

5. William should try out homelessness
The ultimate patron would walk out on the street today and ask britain
to offer a home to every single person who is homeless, as their future
king was amongst them.

William may be the real deal underneath all the appearances. Its good
to see rumors of wisdom.
