It's a huge controversy within the dole at the moment because the vast amount of claimants with homeless are out the bounds of working because of the council rent charge. Whatever my faults I'm not stupid so I understand a rent bill.

Hi people. Thanks for the thoughtful responses. I think I've worded this post wrong, essentially what I'm looking for is anybody with any media experience who can advise me on getting something up and running where I document the modern homeless experience.

You see them so little now they do stand out, as for my opinion. Each to their own. I mask up pretty often. I'm the guy who posted about losing gf, job and health through illness and becoming homeless, so I have to go to the soup kitchen under central, the mask stays on there, it acts as a barrier between me and the degenerates and as disguise from people I knew before the wheels fell off. βΉοΈπ

The stats do speak and by many metrics Glasgow and especially its surrounding areas have the highest rates of murder and violence. I can't remember the councils name but believe it's that paisley or Greenock area has uks highest murder stats. I do agree that it's a hugely different city to years ago

It's not categorically false, it was one of the council wards that's surrounded Glasgow. Those areas are among the poorest in the uk and always have, why the shock? I don't have time for this I'm away for a date. Get offline. Do the same

I worked in and was unfortunately involved with different bodies to do with violence reduction/gang culture, used to hear these stats all the time I'm not giving it a huge amount of thought rn. Perhaps north Lanark or west Dumbarton, one of those outskirts parishes or wards have topped uk murder a number of times. Anywhere that contains ferguslie park is gonna do that from time to time. It's not outlandish. It was the year the violence in London really kicked off because I have a clear memory of being shocked by it. Maybe the acid attack boom year.

The racial profiling things isn't a huge issue in Glasgow but working class profiling is. If you are arrested, cautioned or asked to pop by the station just look to the floor and keep your mouth shut. If they're gonna charge you with anything with or without you talking they will.

Genuinely not joking here. On a weekend night do a figure of eight from merchant city to the to central station. Every walk of life Scotland has to offer will be on show, students, drunk business men, hen dos, dealers, immigrants, families visiting the city, teen gangs, the lot. Everything is there.

I'm in the process of contacting charities about material help if possible. But beyond that I don't really want anything to do with them or 12 step stuff, they work well for lots of folk. But myself and lots of other ex addicts hate that whole movement/recovery cafes etc. tons of ex addicts sitting about talking war stories like old soldiers. I don't want my entire personality defined my drugs. To be blunt I'm sick to the back teeth of recovery, I just wanna live my life and put all that drug chat to bed and to learn to be around people who never lived that life. I just can't listen to tales of trauma and deprivation any more.

Knowing myself a vlog is definitely my best route. As for homeless, it's so bad the dole of all people are leaving the homeless be, and not stressing us to find work.

Good idea. Over the next few days I'm gonna set up socials across the board under one name. The main issue is until I've some decent content out together I'm just screaming into the void. I'm not a snappy one liner type so my best bets putting a camera in front of me and leaving me to talk long form. And use twitter etc as a funnel to the main YT channel.

It's impossible to explain it's weirdly arbitrary. My rent all in is almost 600 a week to my hostel. The council pay that. If I got a job I had to pay the council roughly 250 per week. But a pal in the same place was quoted 312 per week. Yet another was told he was gonna have to pay the full 600. Other people are given a 70% pay plan. So this is yet another issue, it's this weird Kafka world where nobody knows any of the why's. Throw in the fact you can contact homeless all day every day and never get any response. One guy here called 70 times over a month. Every time told he'd get a call back, not one call back. Grown men from the streets are broken and sitting around crying cos' of the system.

That's the plan. I've spent the last few years since I got sober studying online marketing and analytics. I've a fairly well thought out funnel system in place. I've carried out market research, focus groups (seriouslyπ). I'm now at the stage I'm confident I can pull this off. I also had to think long and hard about putting what's quite a private thing I'm ashamed of into the public. For one it'll kill my dating life "oh the homeless ex junkie guy has a tinder". π₯Ή

by

They're privately owned, GHA Needs them cos' they've only those six hostels so the owners can price gauge. There's also the fact they use public hotels, I know prem inn used to charge 120 a night to house homeless. What needs to happen is GHA build more hostels. That way rent is controlled and people can work. Mass Privatisation of homeless acc is relatively new.

(Thu 7th Jul 2022 12:52am)
Right I'm no fighting or getting heated with anyone tonight but I'll try explaining the prices and how it works. I don't know the op but ..,,,,,, The places mentioned in the article are council owned. They're not rented to the public. They're private GCC facilities. So they're cheaper. GCC sold off most their hostels from the early to mid 00s and the homeless thing was mostly handed over to private business. Go into booking.com and look at hotel prices, the average is about 70 to a hundred, so if you are out in a hotel by the council the hotel will charge the standard rate, so X that 70 or whatever by a month and you get? The other issue is these 'hotel' owners have sussed the council are totally reliant on them so they can price gauge. Most homeless know the exact price cos when you move in, you receive your paperwork from the council and this tells you exactly what they are paying for you to stay where you're staying they have to tell you by law. I thought mine was 660 but had a look at my forms just now and it's 580 a week. I also know prem inn charge 120 a night to house homeless. Only way out the mess is for the council to build more housing or hostels. And despite the council ones being cheaper they tend to be by far the most violent, it's not always but most the time the worst are out to them.

Just skim read, so maybe missing something. You'll not get any medical info off the nhs. But homeless tend to beg/hang out in specific spots (they kinda 'own' them) just make a point of going past it and eventually you'll see him. Keep asking the pal. If he were still in the hospital and you've a wee bit of friendly charm, they probably won't guide you to his bed but a decent receptionist may in a roundabout way answer what you're asking.

She's always about the far side of central. Not much you can about her drug issues. Rather than buy her food(there are lots of options for food if homeless, and she uses them) give her some cash if you afford it. A few quid could save her from jail, a beating or worse.

Gonna put my head above the parapet here and probably get murdered by downvotes. I worked in management (broadly speaking medical) for a good bit of time, and a huge issue I ran into was hr employing African/Eastern Europeans and a majority of them just not having a high enough standard of English. I was desperate for as many native English speakers as possible tbh. I do believe in institutional racism but as often there are pretty prosaic reasons why a non native speaker may not get the job.

Some butchers or those farm style stores. they'll vacuum pack it, does that count as sealed? Bit trickier to find but definitely better than tinned.

I've no idea where you're from, it's probably no even the language thing and more the master's. I don't know if it's something you'd consider but turning point and love group are definitely taking folk on just now. You'd earn more and be treated far better than retail.

I don't sorry. Technically it's cooked when you buy it, you just heat it up at home. I'm sure there's a butcher about Partick, should be one in the city centre as well. I'd deffo buy it from a butcher, tinned stuff isn't quite the same.

Kinda depends, are you a student, middle class, jailbird? Etc. different crowds go to different meetings. The CA in finnieston on Wednesday evening* is good, all different addictions in there and different walks of life. *id double check it's wed evening I stopped meetings ages ago.

I've no faith in them whatsoever, I can't stress enough how horrific they are to deal with. People are flat out dying all over G cos' of them. These privates like first should be at the mercy of huge fines and contract cancellations (that really happen) for bad service or breaking set agreements. Possibly overseen by an elected and independent board/committee.

An incredible way to help the people of Glasgow (and gain those skills) Offer your services to addiction/homeless charities, the soup kitchen at the back of central always need hair dressers, city mission, wayside etc etc. I know these places get a bad rep but I'm yet to see anyone anything but grateful toward the staff* * there are lots of security.

It'll be fine, For a band I think I'd prefer it to the club nights(I hated the few I'd been to). With the odd exemption (peak barras) idgaf about the venue, if the acts good a everything else is good. The club nights are much loved, I'm just an old raver who thinks modern club culture especially trendy places like sw3 are crap.

This is exactly what I've heard but from fans. Two pals both said he was a total prick. I've seen him about Byers road loads (years ago now) and he struck me as too fucking weird and unapproachable. Never spoke to him so my personal take isn't worth a lot.

Exactly how he came over to me, I was worthless to him and he let it be known. I spotted him not realising who it was initially, went up n' just said I liked his work, once he sussed I was a nobody he started giving me loads of bullshit answers. I had a camera and the tool then gave me a made up address in the fucking Hebrides or somewhere and to come shoot him one day. I get home, google the stuff he mentioned. All of its crap. I'll never get the motivation there.

Worked in a charity where they were often left in the toilet so I'd have to get rid of them myself. If you are having trouble getting anyone and do want them gone, maybe try yourself? To do this safely go into almost any chemist and ask for a 'sin bin', realistically you don't need gloves but to err safe get some surgical gloves, pick up the sharps and put them in. It's not impossible but it is extremely unlikely** To pass on the disease it has to go into the vein, even then it's not a guarantee. ** no confirmed needle stick transmissions since records began in 99. ***sharp's training is essentially wear gloves put in sin bin.

I'd definitely ask for a sin bin in a chemist, once in the bin just hand it back to a chemist. It's basically just a wee black tub that secures medical equipment. Tattoo places would be a great shout they'll go through that whole process daily! Cheers for helping Glasgow!

I'm quite confident an able bodied adult is more than capable of picking up a needle to dispose of safely without sticking them self. What's happened to your pal is dreadful, sorry to hear that, but it's also almost nonexistent. What happened that it got so serious?
