Caitlyn Jenner has been the subject of fierce criticism once again as she suggested homeless people be moved to "big open fields".

In the last few weeks, the former Olympic decathlete, 71, has sparked much controversy after voicing her conservative standpoints on social and political matters amid her campaign for governor of California.

Some of her most divisive viewpoints revolve around her support of the death penalty and her belief that trans girls should be banned from playing alongside their cisgender teammates in school sports.

The outspoken reality star's latest take on social issues in California saw her slam the sight of homeless people in Venice Beach.

During an appearance on Inside California Politics, a show on the local network KRON 4, she said: "They're destroying Venice Beach. They're destroying all the businesses down there. They don't need to be there. The crime rate is going up … It's mostly homeless-on-homeless murders. We can't have that in our streets."

She went on to say: "We have to provide someplace for those people to go, whether it's an open field out in some place, or if you notice at the veteran's facility. There are these big open fields and a lot of places there."

Perhaps unsurprisingly, a number of people have since taken to Twitter to share their thoughts on Jenner's suggestion concerning the issue of homelessness - and the response was overwhelmingly negative.

One person wrote: "Caitlyn Jenner, whose net worth is roughly $100 million, proposed moving homeless people to ‘big open fields’ out of sight & out of mind from the rest of us. Political cowardice & inhumane disconcern. Problems are to be solved, not swept under a rug."

Another user asked, "Is Caitlyn Jenner’s entire platform just complaining about homeless people?"

Another person wrote: "Britney Spears can’t have her IUD removed, Bill Cosby is free and Caitlyn Jenner said that we should take homeless ppl to an open field somewhere and leave them to pitch tents there because they’re ruining Venice Beach."

A final person wrote: "I wish Caitlyn Jenner had access to the kind of money it would take to build a shelter for the homeless people in Venice Beach…oh wait!"
