IN response to your reader in Monday’s Glasgow Times regarding groups of young people.

As a secondary school teacher, I can assure him there is no physical distancing in classrooms, and less than half of young people are wearing face coverings in school.

NICOLA Sturgeon had been calling for the Prime Minister to convene a Cobra meeting due to resurgence of the virus and it fell on deaf ears.

She was then asked by a BBC reporter, rather gleefully, at a recent briefing if she knew that a Cobra meeting had been called by the Prime Minister.

In his usual spiteful and childish manner he, of course, deliberately did not tell her in order to embarrass her. However, she handled it very professionally, as always.

This Prime Minister is really the bottom of the barrel. No class, no professionalism, just a vacuous Tory voted in by England.

GOOD luck and best wishes to Chief Superintendent Hazel Hendren on her retirement.

Unfortunately I do not agree that Glasgow is now a “better and safer” place.

The safe Glasgow that I remember did NOT have the large numbers of drug addicts, beggars and homeless on most street corners of the city centre.

Gangland shootings were unheard of. Muggings and senseless assaults were rare and NOT everyday occurrences.

Pubs closed before midnight and bookmakers closed at 6pm and criminals were locked up, NOT given useless community tasks

Alas Ms Henderson, my “dear sweet Glasgow” is, sadly, no more.

I NOTE the council launching another consultation strategy on transport.

The council didn’t do any consultations on the food waste bins, the proposed new drug shooting gallery, the new hideous red and white pedestrian traffic barriers or the removal of the free bulk uplift service.

I think Anne Richardson, left, and the SNP administration forgets the council missed the boat of bringing the bus services back into public ownership, the monorail to Glasgow Airport has been talked about for more than five years and no new Subway stations have been built to increase the connectivity with the most deprived communities in Glasgow.
