Thank you Billy for walking around the various housing "schemes" in the United Kingdom. I like it when you show the actual front yards, doors and backyards, fencing around the houses or area, the schools and the gardens and grounds around schools and schemes. I live, and am from, central Ontario, Canada. I live in a small town of around 6,700 people (I live on a river) so what you show us is very, very interesting to me. I get a feel for how the common folk live in each scheme in the wider U.K. Thank you for taking the time to show us buildings and house fronts and life.
Hiya to you over in Ontario 👍 It's brilliant to hear how far these videos are reaching .. and great to know that you get a proper feel for the way people live .
@@mol588 If nothing else I like reality. Not fake. I do care and want to know how you are doing in the U.K. I'm a U.K. "watcher" so these videos are wonderfully informative and I appreciate them.
@@gazzy9136 And I love the U.K!!! I may never get there, but I can, through videos like these from Billy Moore. Keep safe as things sometimes rock 'n roll a bit on the streets in your country. (As they can everywhere.) I'm watching and praying!
Always kind always compassionate. Bless you Billy. We are witnessimg death not by but post a thousand cuts with more to come. Stay safe and keep spreading the truth 🙏
People need to take responsibility for their local environment. You can’t complain when you dump mattresses and sofas outside your front door, or smash up and burn facilities put in place for the kids. Being poor is no excuse.
And lives ruined be smack dealers who everyone knows who they are but nobody tells the polis as they aren't grasses. No, they would rather their kids be around gear and inevitably hooked or victims of desperate addicts. Then blame the government.
Phew! So glad Billy knows how to carry himself. Also…has always amazed me how Scousers and Glaswegians understand each others language and accents. Being Glaswegian myself, the only other region/group i’ve felt that affinity with is Geordies.
Amazing isn't it! I can understand every word perfectly! I have worked around the Glasgow area a lot fitting boilers over the years. I was in the Drum in 2018 (when Steven Gerrard was the manager of Rangers) for 6 months. Stayed in an apartment on the never ending Dumbarton Road! And wegians always spot our scouse accents and have a good chat. Usually about the footy. Been to a couple of Rangers games over the years and oh my God, what a stadium!!! A bit like Goodison but bigger! 🫡🫵
I went with a girl from Wellhouse in Easterhouse 30 years ago (now demolished). We went to visit her parents and her dad gave use some booze to take with us when we left. He insisted on wrapping them in newspaper so the locals wouldn't hear the clinking when we went for the bus.
Another great vlog billy, always look forward to watching always gutted when there’s not one on every day, but you have a life too, it just goes to show how good they are, even if it can be sad to the decline on our streets, but it’s real life so that what you get! Thanks again billy.

@@Debbiebarker88 People shouldn't be judged by where they live. I've met some great people who grew up in disadvantaged areas but are great people with good morals. It's how you live not where you live that matters. 💯

So we have a housing crisis? Raynor goes on about building new houses, why can’t we just regenerate what we have? And tidy the country up? Surely it can’t be that hard
if you tidy anything, or make the existing infrastructure better in either of these areas, the locals will destroy it as it's in their nature to destroy,
Studied housing estate management in Edinburgh in late 90s...a trip to Easter house was unforgettable the Scots have had it harder than us down south ..the schemes are next level the best people but it pays to know a few as tricky places
I was born in Glasgow, stayed there till i was 8, my dad got transferred to the Highlands with the railway, never looked back, still say im a Glasweigan though. Wasnt as bad then 😢.
Not all bad was born in Easterhouse worked all over Glasgow , just no money been spent on the place , but plenty off money spent in the new shopping centre .
Drumchapel, Easterhouse, Castlemilk, Arden were really rough, as were many inner city estates like the notorious Red Road Flats at Blackhill, Pinkston estate at Sighthill, Gorbals/ Calton /Bridgton / Maryhill / Hutchesontown etc. Superficially much better now, just like Ferguslie Park at Paisley just down the road
Red Road flats weren't in Blackhill. Their bit was Springburn/Balornock/Barmulloch/Gringo. Blackhill is the other side of Royston Rd heading towards the the top end between the M8 and M80 motorways.
Nice one billy , welcome to Glasgow, glad to have you here bro , I think drumchapel and easterhouse are 2 of the biggest housing schemes/ estates manors whatever people call them us in Scotland 🏴 call them schemes

Thanks as always my mate good content... Gb 💯
Once you've visited Castlemilk, Pollok, Milton, and Ferguslie Park (Paisley) you'll have covered all the worst schemes in Scotland. There's also the "Chernobyl" scheme doon the M8 in the wee town of Port Glasgow too.
Its the people around a youngster that matters i grew up poor but people can get an education i heard the expression poverty of aspiration. So true young people have to be told THEY CAN ACHIEVE 🙏
great work billy its a sad indictment of our Government (s),that you are exposing the decay and the abandonment of the working class, cant see any political party having the desire to change it for the better you are creating a social record of the dismal circumstances that people live in . much appreciated
Lived in possil in the 70’s, Easter house as well, then the drum, then Patrick, Scotstoun Yoker in the 80’s as bad as it may seem now it was esp easterhouse and the drum wasteland communities stand or fall based on what they’ll tolerate most had the soul ripped out of them
On a serious note good stuff Bill as usual...good little piece when ya mentioned the kids playing with rubbish growing up with No inspiration and hardly any hope! None of government that's for sure and it's as you said Billy... "SAD" 😱 4real thanks for your time,passion & content pal 👍🏼
It's a shame in a way that Glasgow lost its tough side, the 90s were certainly a lot more violent, but a combination of political chages and the Internet have raised a different type of youth nowadays.
It's a shame you glorify mindless violence and think it's some sort of badge of honour. I see a few agree with you too and no doubt at the same time wonder why it's a 🚽 round there.
..excellent vid as always Billy your a 'Legend' ..many beutyfull houses yet its a shame the area is high in crime,poverty also its being neglected by the council who are doing nothing, no parks, not many shops ..alot of over-grown areas ..back in the early 90s I bet it was absolutely beutyfull
You're alright round there if you just move in with nothing, plenty furniture about, but same, I'd always heard drumchapel was one of the roughest schemes in Glasgow.
I used to do deliveries in easterhouse and I can honestly say I never once had a bit of hassle in it. Some of the people are the most genuine you will come across and they have it bloody hard they where put there with the promise of a better standard of life and have been let down by a number of governments since.
Same story where I am.Everytime a Kids playground is built(the one's with the Rubber flooring)within a day or so,it's set alight.The Kids have nothing nowadays
If Billy saw that he'd just let them get on with it and have a little chuckle about it, then complain about how terrible things are in the area. Same like he did with the bike incident yesterday.
My elderly neighbour moved out , it’s a beautiful house in a street with half council & half private. The council have turned it into a scatter flat . There’s people coming & going all hours . The last tenant was a junkie now we’ve got an ex jail bird. They are deliberately lowering the tone of the neighbourhood . You’ll only get a council house these days if you have problems & are a criminal.
Gangster my arse. Just a wee jumped up bellend same as the brother. The Dubai wan doesnae own a thing, ignore the tik toks they arenae his cars. There aw no even paid min wage to put their lives own the line, the high ups real gangsters take the majority of the dough. Mugs game
@@Sansmissione Part of that is their history. Most of them are at odds with the government but they've forgotten the reasons why or are too dumb to use the correct language to express themselves, over time the societal isolation turns to nihilism(I'm not sure how to fix this as more recent incomers from poor backgrounds tend to have a similar mindset as well and the money to make a difference is not there). If you co back in history they'll be Irish immigrants, Scottish people from rural areas forced into the central belt due to industrialisation, housed traveller families etc. Clan law is still king in the scheme not the Germanic common law we tend to know on civvy street. The legal framework of the land is of course a mixed one not just common law like you see down south.
I certainly think they don't need people like you trying to fix them. As for them being too dumb or being able to use the correct language. You know nothing
@@blairrobert3438thanks feel more educated. I understand but it doesn't make it better if it as you state then it's those you need to talk to organise clean up and safe places for the kids to go. To me it looks like the people can't be arsed and just given up
Been like that for decades. It's the people that make a place what it is. The mind set is it's someone else's problem just like you yesterday with the bike incident.
Nah don't blame the people ,I'm sure if there was enough decent paying jobs about ,and aprentaships were people have hope for the future ,again when theyv finished course they know that will ,have a decent chance in life to get a home and quality of life ,then you wouldn't see so many slums .

You're alright round there if you just move in with nothing, plenty furniture about, but same, I'd always heard drumchapel was one of the roughest schemes in Glasgow.
I used to do deliveries in easterhouse and I can honestly say I never once had a bit of hassle in it. Some of the people are the most genuine you will come across and they have it bloody hard they where put there with the promise of a better standard of life and have been let down by a number of governments since.
So much fly tipping what a mess it's a shame good solid houses too
Jeez all them wheely bins 😅
Even in the sunshine that would look shite, i lost count of the boarded up windows
Our uni insisted on a private security firm to escort us around Easter house 😂
Same story where I am.Everytime a Kids playground is built(the one's with the Rubber flooring)within a day or so,it's set alight.The Kids have nothing nowadays
If Billy saw that he'd just let them get on with it and have a little chuckle about it, then complain about how terrible things are in the area. Same like he did with the bike incident yesterday.
Thanks for the vid, Billy. Only recently come across your channel. My, you visit some desolate places.
Always interesting thanks
Got lost as a sales rep. Back in 90's in Easterhouse, it was rough then.
I think you're in Lilybank at the start there, just off London Road. Pretty sure I was at some parties behind those boarded up windows,
that Rachel at the start was a bit of alright - if she dont like the scheme she can move in with me in Nottingham :) xxx
Top content as always mate
My elderly neighbour moved out , it’s a beautiful house in a street with half council & half private. The council have turned it into a scatter flat . There’s people coming & going all hours . The last tenant was a junkie now we’ve got an ex jail bird. They are deliberately lowering the tone of the neighbourhood . You’ll only get a council house these days if you have problems & are a criminal.
Born there in 61,now in sa.easterhoos bhoy.
By SA I take it ye mean South Africa? The big E will huv ye well prepared for the Cape Flats. 😉
Just like the 'projects ' in New York but with fewer guns, for now
Billy Mcguire was a gangster, that's why the killer has got a contract on his head 🎯
And idolised by the locals yet the government are to blame. Same mind set as it is in Liverpool.
Gangster my arse. Just a wee jumped up bellend same as the brother. The Dubai wan doesnae own a thing, ignore the tik toks they arenae his cars. There aw no even paid min wage to put their lives own the line, the high ups real gangsters take the majority of the dough. Mugs game
@@Sansmissione Part of that is their history. Most of them are at odds with the government but they've forgotten the reasons why or are too dumb to use the correct language to express themselves, over time the societal isolation turns to nihilism(I'm not sure how to fix this as more recent incomers from poor backgrounds tend to have a similar mindset as well and the money to make a difference is not there). If you co back in history they'll be Irish immigrants, Scottish people from rural areas forced into the central belt due to industrialisation, housed traveller families etc. Clan law is still king in the scheme not the Germanic common law we tend to know on civvy street. The legal framework of the land is of course a mixed one not just common law like you see down south.
I certainly think they don't need people like you trying to fix them. As for them being too dumb or being able to use the correct language. You know nothing
@@blairrobert3438thanks feel more educated. I understand but it doesn't make it better if it as you state then it's those you need to talk to organise clean up and safe places for the kids to go. To me it looks like the people can't be arsed and just given up
My ex husband was hurt badly in the crush at ibrox. A young policeman saved his life.
You should visit La Linea mate, makes that place look like Disneyland
Been like that for decades. It's the people that make a place what it is. The mind set is it's someone else's problem just like you yesterday with the bike incident.
Nah don't blame the people ,I'm sure if there was enough decent paying jobs about ,and aprentaships were people have hope for the future ,again when theyv finished course they know that will ,have a decent chance in life to get a home and quality of life ,then you wouldn't see so many slums .
@@mickharrison9004or you could instil some morals in your kids if you weren't aff yer heed on blues all day.
@@Sansmissione nothing wrong with my kids ,and has I've said these people on drugs for me ,wouldn't of started that shit if there was positive vibes around ,the community,with decent paid jobs and things so what your saying ,could of and would be prevented if leaders cared enough .
@@mickharrison9004Exactly Thatcher changed all that. Anyway that Mmm seems to think they know what their talking about
@@mickharrison9004wasn't directed at you specifically but I get it looked that way so fair play.
Glasgow looks like Ballyfermot or Clondalkin in Dublin Ireland, Billy Moore is a legend.
Ruchill was bad back in the 70/80s when I lived there.
I knew someone who almost got carjacked in Ruchill St while driving through there late one night in the 90's.
@@l3awjawz I grew up there in 70s and 80s , it’s a nice area now ,but used to be dodgy like possil and loads of other schemes
@@johnmcdonald9295 Aye m8, back in the 90's Ruchill was viewed as one of the worst places just like Milton & Posso. It seemed to have quietened doon by the 2,000's and after the Barnes Rd bit was pulled doon.
My da had a butcher shop in Drum.People were great.Went through hard times after the demise of the shipyards.
I came from Easterhouse brilliant scheme like everywhere has its bad people i done nearly 200hrs community service painting that nursing home in the 90s 😂😂😂😂Drummy is sound lol aka lochend that was my old secondary was called the hash factory in papers i was lucky i had family all over there and still do so never had any issues even gang fighting 1 the boys who killed bill got slashed in lowmoss few weeks back 👀
You don't know Hazie and Sandra that stayed not far from the School around 98 do you nate ?
Jane looks like she doesn’t put up with anything .
Quite the opposite really, looks like she would put up with anything hence the state of her.
Get yerself doon to the backend of Milton billy 👍

I can't remember if you've been to Mountblow/Clydebank and the Paisley area? Paisley's wild just now; that's where that fella was chasing the police down the road with a chainsaw in broad daylight.
