Yes, Glasgow has problems. Some huge problems.
I work in literacy in the charity sector. 31% of women giving birth in Glasgow for the first time aren't literate enough to fill in a CB claim form. It's a disgrace, but it's bourne out of years of poverty, illness, neglect, poor housing. Many of these women are asylum seekers that Glasgow welcomed. I was at a community meeting once (about immigration) where a wee old lady stood up and said "aye they are furriners! But they're OOR furriners!!"
Yes, HLE in Glasgow is shockingly low. But if you live in Pollok, or Castlemilk, or Possill, you are condemned to it, especially if you are male, from an early age.
But I've never lived in a more community focused, caring, amazing place (our very middle-class family voluntarily relocated to Castlemilk to be involved in community poverty reduction schemes). It's only been reinforced by what we've heard/seen since then.
Yes, Glasgow is poor, unhealthy, divided. But we know how to pull together (and I'm only an honorary weegie. My dc are not born, but certainly bred here!
So stuff KH and her attitude. I've signed the petition because of the awesomely bad deliberate timing of her tweet. But we don't care about her, and I doubt we ever will!
