Liam, an army veteran who quit the forces in 2003 due his opposition to the Iraq War, has been homeless several times in his life, but says this has been the most traumatic.

CRAIG BROWN: Not so long ago, when you could distinguish a businessman from a rock star. There was a distinct divide.

Their hair was long. They looked like Rasputin, travelled by private jet, and relaxed by turning smart cars into hotel swimming ponds.

The shocking extent of the wildfires that have devastated the Hawaiian island of Maui, where whole communities have been razed to the ground, has been shown by shocking images before and after.
