Homeless in Glasgow

- There is a homeless crisis in Glasgow.
To be honest it is across much of the UK.
My hope is that my documentaries raise awareness for the struggles people have to go through, so that we can try and solve the crisis. I also want to spread compassion. I think sometimes there isn't enough compassion in the world.
That being said i think the people of Glasgow seemed both very kind and very friendly.

It's terrible all the homeless people so sad in this day and age . Don't know how they survive in this weather so sad.
Much colder in Glasgow than I thought it would be 😔

Thank you Lisa, you are sharing an important message
Hey mate. Liked the video. Ma heart goes oot to the genuine homeless. This opens a lot of people's eyes to how it is for them jst to exist. A shame on Glasgow 🤔🙏
Thank you Derek. Hopefully glasgow will be able to fix it over time. I'm sure it's not an easy problem to solve.
Shame on London too and all the places that have homeless people. Please be kind to these people and feel lucky it’s not you!
I bought a walking stick and gave it to a homeless man. As quick as a flash he ran into the shop l came out of and told a member of staff it was broken and he asked for his money back. Happy days here again! Is his words to the public.
Someone that featured in the documentary? Which one was that James?
09.25 James is explaining how it is for a lot of people upon release from prison, prisoners are just being released from one broken system into another.
And that was a get out of homeless card going to bar or wherever now there libbing you off the bat it's right to the street we used to be better than this 😢🎉
great job my friend keep up the good work
Appreciate it garry
The Streets are doing a great job exposing this. Well done to you for taking the time to do this also.
What mike skinner ever done for em
Nice one mate, Reapect, I've been there and anything helps, KEEP SMILING DEREK
Thank you john
The entire Earth is a shit hole, sadly, please God let it be over soon.
I wouldn't say that. I would say that we have serious problems that we need to solve. And with the right leadership we will solve them. And if we look after eachother
This is heart breaking. We help so many other people we need to help our own now.
@Chumba-iv5xb it's good to help people
I hate the people who have helped create this unnecessary suffering, these people being the Tories, Labour, the SNP, the Liberals, the Greens, the local authorities across the UK and the Monarchy.
Plenty resources available for illegal immigrants, lovely NHS on site, heating, food, ciggies, bikes, jobs, travel cards, lovely hotels and grounds to enjoy, 🏴❤️🏴❤️🏴❤️
I cant pass people who are homeless as ive been there myself i hate to see people in this day and age with no shelter , heat even as a kid i NEVER understood why people actually pay for their basic human needs and never will
I'm not sure what you mean by the last bit, but that's really good of you to stop and to want to help people that are homeless
@OperationAndrewDocumentaries I meant WHY do we pay for shelter and heat its our human right and need as usual in this place having free stuff is just not possible a price tag on everything
Much respect
Take him
And pay hostel up front for a night or two or a coffe / something to eat 🙏
In short drugs are gettin bought with cash😢
Here's a wild idea -
Maybe they could open up some hotels for the people of this country to sleep in free of charge. I don't see much diversity in these homeless clips.
It's bad when you have to leave my own country
The dude at 14min you gave him £10 which is good
You should of gave him £20 brother
You know he is getting a bag with that. I'm sober now so I'm not hating.
Defo lol don't blame him lol
Scotland has the reputation for being cold and wet... you're from England mate, it's hardly Barbados!
Fair feedback. I went to dover and glasgow recently. The difference was stark
If you build up rent arrears because of being in prison, you're always going to end up evicted. Universal Credit will not pay rent for a house not being lived in. So that's 100% on him. Council should have accommodation for him coming out though.
I'm not sure that it's a good system where prison puts you essentially into debt that is hard to repay (because you weren't working but your rent owed keeps rising). A difficult one though. If it's a housing association you would think they would be able to make am agreement to terminate the contract.. although he still probably has the problem of where to put all of his stuff
You find some people choose too become homeless do it because they don't have much family around and don't like following certain rules that Ara set out in certain accommodation places so they end like out on the streets so they don't have too then follow those rules
well put together story bro well done would like interview you some time
@ramongeorge1 hi ramon, I've seen one of your videos before about homelessness. Which part of the UK you based? : )
@@OperationAndrewDocumentaries south yorks but travel
Is St Enochs hotel still used for the homeless, next to hootenanny, I was in there years ago, back in England now, also the wayside centre, not far from wetherspoons Crystal Palace Andrew?
I don't know it but thank you for sharing
I had to leave Scotland to get somewhere to stay I'm still homeless
I stopped at a tent in Glasgow City centre at Xmas to give a homeless person a couple of quid but a man pulled me out my wheelchair and stole my wallet then ran off laughing. We're away for a jag! Was the last words l heard.
Stop trollling with your lies!
Typical Scottish weather, i reallh hope that £10 got him out the rain , got a feeling its going elsewhere
That was my first and only thought 🤔 you can go into charities get food wash clothes shower for free. But you know what the government have a lot to answer for😢😢. There is housing in Glasgow but it's not going to people from Glasgow on the streets it's going to people from other countries. I'm not racist in any way shape or form but we have to look after the people that are from here first.
Glasgow changed since lockdown the 4 corners is cross 4 way McDonald's pizza hut . To kfc then the other corner is a Chinese just near the bridge central station where alot of the homeless sleep and theres allsorts going on . But going into Glasgow that very area for 30yr nothings happened to me . One of my friends was hit with a pole outside a night club but thats all in 30yr. But if your looking to get drugs then your putting yourself in danger
@@Carson-pv4hr interesting to get different perspectives on it. Thanks Carson
Those guys cant run a house thay dont know how to there are many big building lying empty in our city centre find them and make them habitable for them to go and keep warm you may ask why i say this but theres a great glasgow saying we are all jock thomsons bairns thats so true so come on glasgow city council get the finget out for all our rough sleepers male & female 😮😮😮
2.7 millions and he’s own his arse aff his heed pure fantasia…most councils house the migrants first before our own thsts the reality of Scotland these people don’t ask for much 🏴 😢
😊😊
hi paul
@@OperationAndrewDocumentariesshold go Bexley heath and help the homeless up their
@jordonsky why do you think bexley heath? Is the homeless situation bad there?
Hey Andrew you think lack of compassion and inverse ethical and moral values pervasive now in society from media indoctrination has anything to do with it? Me me me? Sin is abound mate and UK used to be a good place to live
I'm not sure what you are saying jay
@@OperationAndrewDocumentariesis selfishness the problem?
Nah, come on - he never had 2.7 million. Silly sausage. Ive heard all the fantastical stories from being homeless myself. Its their way of making themselves feel better about their situation.
Yep, absolute tosh. You hear the story alot about the GF having it away with someone else too.
Neither of you know this gentleman you shouldn't assume these things.
@@colourfulcrafts5492 I gave away 40 million the other day, so don't judge me either.
I think colourful crafts is correct. You can't know for sure. Even if the stories sound hard to believe. He seems like a really nice person
@OperationAndrewDocumentaries social media has made people ugly and allowed them to disrespectful without getting called on it 😢🎉
To the poster. Schoolboy error to come to Glasgow in the winter without a set of thermals on. 😬
The poster?
@OperationAndrewDocumentaries As in 'original poster' of video and not all us armchair commentators. 😯
Yeah fair enough haha I haven't been up there much recently. A lesson for next time : )
@OperationAndrewDocumentaries good video btw. Glasgow does have a severe homeless issue, however all is not as it seems. I was homeless (technically) but in a suburb of Glasgow. I was given temp furnished accom then council house. Was I just lucky?
Also, you were a bit misinformed about Homeless Project Scotland. A few years ago they sat on over £330K in bank while annual expenditure was just £72K.
Currently sat on change from half a million but they'd rather play politics with the City Council than lease the premises they are seeking. I make my donations to homeless people directly on the street having walked their journey. Homelessness is a political issue, but it feckin shouldn't be. It should simply be something society refuses to accept.
That guy had 2.7 million lies
The people get homeless because of family feuds mostly on financial problems
@@ercieyyy you are right family challenges seem to be common in the reasons I am told people have gone onto the streets
🥶
But they don't care in England either
Oh human life / Oh Goddess mother Kamakhya
Iv been homeless for 6 yrs with no help or support and iv got physical and mental health issues.All the systems are fecked up from docs to social work from housing ti homeless teams .Iv just been tossed aside and forgotten about Or it's oh your case is a very complex case ??
Sorry to hear that gary
M8 you look worn out with what you just seen tip my cap to you m8 nice to ask if they need help 🎉 Glasgow used to be smiles Better 😢
Beautiful place but definitely a homeless crisis there. Unfortunately when it comes to major cities.. it's not alone. In fact I rarely come across a major city that doesn't have this crisis
@OperationAndrewDocumentaries not racist by any means but did you happen to stumble across any immigrants? Can't just be coincidence 99.9 are UK residents with in today's world is normal 🎉🏴🇬🇧
Hellish=Chaos
What are you saying?
I bet none of the 250 deaths were from another country..they're all in hotels getting fed and watered..nice and cosy
If you were a ilegel immigrant everything would be great
Bad luck you're British
Learn to spell
If only the virtue signaling flag bearers put the same effort into the homeless situation
Gary, the documentaries are not about me. We need to raise awareness and we need to be more compassionate as a society.
I'm sure your comment comes from a place where you want the best for people on the streets. I appreciate that : )
@ I wasn’t referring to you. I was talking about the flag wavers near the end ? As in,if only they were more passionate about this situation here
It took over a month to edit and upload this
Do I need to speed up 😅 it's a long video. I was also making this one while I was in Scotland ua-cam.com/video/47B2ueMnYcU/v-deo.htmlsi=Gg2TeridnCJBgzfN
@ No probs, especially if you have a day job. But there are extremes like Billy Moore and Charlie Veitch who are pretty relentless. They obviously do it full time.
2.7 my arse.
Come on mate there’s already a posh guy who ventures out of his quaint little posh village every week and winds up the homeless we don’t need another… and he can Sparta kick
Was that all £10 this homeless guy made this shit predictable crap watchable Give him most of the credit or
Your place in the next game is it
24:29 stolen valour.
The money doesn't come out his own pocket the homeless project out of all the different charities have near £1.000.000 in their accounts from donations, it's the many different charities around Cadogan street, and kindness in George square that do it off they're own back.
Out of all the charities, Mel in cadogan St is the one who deserves the most praise in my eyes. How do I know because I've used all these different charities.
@@JJT330it's not that m8 nowadays this shirt could happen to anyone used to hear the mindset and seen it rather go to jail than homeless but that option isn't there anymore they make it so hard bc they know we don't have patience for the BS 🎉
I don't doubt many people benefit from the services of Homeless Project Scotland but they're a politically biased organisation so I won't donate to them. Incidentally, you're a bit out on the financials. Year end 2022 they had income just short of half a million with expenditure of £232K. They could lease the premises they want but would rather play politics with GCC.
p.s.just re-read your post and you may be right on £ if more recent figures?
fell for that one ,tenner bag lol
Walk into any restaurant in the whole of the British Isles and ask to be a dishwasher. You will get fed and get paid.
those that want to work work. The rest sit on their arse in the rain.
