Glasgow City Council - In Denial (April 06, 2024)

Glasgow council's SNP leader Cllr Susan Aitken says that Covid is to blame for the city's graffiti problem, but this is baloney - almost as bad as saying that all Glasgow needs is a wee 'spruce up'!

I've been writing about the issue for years, since way before Covid, and the real problem is the lack of joined up strategy for dealing with the issue - which requires political leadership from Glasgow council and the city's politicians.

But this won't happen while the council is in denial about the scale of the problem with litter and graffiti. 





Wake Up, Glasgow! (January 06, 2021)

 

Glasgow city centre has a real and growing problem with graffiti - lots of buildings have been spray painted and the area around South Portland Street suspension bridge is a real eyesore these days.

So I hope Glasgow council has a strategy for cleaning up the city's streets and for tracking down people who think this kind of moronic behaviour is just harmless fun.

Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
