Last year @GlasgowCC broke the law 3,365 times by denying homeless people temporary housing. Today we'll deliver a letter to tell them we're ready to fight in court to stop people being denied their legal rights. Help by donating. https://t.co/Fe3Bi8PzAJ #standupforjustice

“This report confirms the systemic failure of Glasgow City Council’s homelessness services, which has led to thousands of people being denied their legal rights."

A newly-published report from
@SHR_news confirms that Glasgow City council failed in its legal duties to homeless people. The inquiry into @GlasgowCC finds that pre-pandemic they did not provide temporary accommodation to significant numbers of people when they needed it.

[Gordon MacRae @macraegordon]

Despite @shelterscotland taking them to court; @scotgov launching a voluntary review & @SHR_news opening an enquiry, last week @GlasgowCC admitted to a 13% increase in breaches of homelessness laws. This week they defunded the city’s advice & law centres that hold them to account

@PeterKrykant @PeterAdamSmith @GCMcare Do not assume it’s streets tonight. Present and see what’s available. Please

[Peter A Smith @PeterAdamSmith]

NEW: 2 people test positive for Coronavirus at the homeless winter night shelter in Glasgow - a guest and a member of staff. They have now been told to close with immediate effect.

Powerful statement by @GCMcare that’s worth 2 minutes of your time to read and consider. @itvnews

Victory! The Housing Regulator's 11th-hour investigation into Glasgow’s homeless services means we won't have to resort to court action. It’s a victory for all who supported us to stop the council ignoring this massive injustice. #standupforjustice https://t.co/6wkIf57YY2

Great news that Scottish Housing Regulator are launching an inquiry into @GlasgowCC.

We welcome any move to ensure homeless people receive the services & emergency accommodation to which they have a legal right.

It’s freezing outside. And decision just reached by the courts means it will be legal for #Serco to make hundreds street homeless by changing their locks....Watch @FerretScot for updates later.

So there is money in the pot for other things then? https://t.co/itfh23DcYG

[The People v GCC @People_v_GCC]

Time's up GCC. There's no other course of action - we've exhausted all other routes. Now we need to challenge the system to force the council to follow the law. https://t.co/2DfimsGDCH
