coppercrutch Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Another example of your beloved Union at work......how the people in the East End of Glasgow have benefitted. The delusion of JKB strikes again. Yes it is the fault of the Union that the East end of Glasgow is full of **** who live their lives like the useless human beings they are. You really think if Scotland was Independent the East end would turn into some sort of Monte Carlo... and what is your problem with the east end of glasgow Eh. Well the question wasn't directed at me but I will answer anyway. I have walked through it before. I was more disgusted and in fear of being robbed by some little wretched excuse for a human being that when I was wondering around El Salvador for 3 days on my todd. The East end of Glasgow is a disgrace to Scotland and the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 The East End is by and large, an extremely deprived area. Much of Glasgow and Scotland's problems stem from this area. I remember reading that 3 of the 4 poorest post codes in the UK were in East Glasgow. It's not somewhere i ever go if i can help it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of your post is just bigoted crap. there are well documented reasons for the health blackspot that is the east end however there has been a massive regeneration of the area in the last 10 years common sense tells you that as health problems are long term so are there solutions as for this dangerous bit there are many towns in ayrshire i would be far more worried about going out for a pint in than here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Findlay Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Pesonally I think the East end of Glasgow is a perfect example of ignorant people. They dont give a hoot who is in government as they will lead the lives they have always led and that is to do what they please and when they please and to hell with the consequences to themselves and others. They could lead far healthier lives if they so desired but, they choose not too. So I hope they stop moaning soon and those that sympathise with them and blame everything on poverty and low standard of living etc etc. Wise up and let them get on with it.

Drew Busby ! Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 The Commonwealth Games will help but flipping burgers for a few months on minimum wage is not a long term answer. Given that the games will probably be held against the backdrop of a UK Tory government, then Glasgow East punters can expect no favours from that quarter once the games circus leaves town. What the area needs is serious targeted investment and some "tough love" to overturn the dependancy culture that Labour has bred into generations of voters there.

John ah your part of the health mafia(whitch im sorry means your always moaning:p:p:p) i had never picked up on that from your posts which i have always enjoyed btw but again your making sweeping generalizations about a massive area which i suspect you know **** all about apart from a constant barrage of statistical annalists that does not take into account the massive concentration of one specific demographic group. Added to a Glaswegian social backdrop that(historically)meant the second your doing well for your self you moved to the west end or out off town ,a social phenomenon that leads to the creation of ghettos worldwide now at the risk of being a condescending ***** i know from your post you are well traveled enough to have seen these things before and also to know there are lies damn lies and statistics so i suspect there is a wee bit of Edinburgh anti weggie bias going on here i will repeat the east end is far far from the hell hole its life expectancy figures paint it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
