Almost 30 charities and organisations will meet on Monday to discuss a route map designed to permanently end rough sleeping.The groups, including several charities, will meet on Monday to discuss a route map designed to permanently end rough sleeping and destitution as the country emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic.The group, named Everyone Home, has agreed three priorities to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on homelessness. These are more homes, no return to rough sleeping and no evictions into homelessness.The route map considers issues facing people who do not have access to the welfare benefits and housing options that are available normally in Scotland for people at risk of homelessness.This is described as having no recourse to public funds and most commonly affects people seeking asylum.There are around 1600 destitute asylum migrants in Scotland, of whom around half are in Glasgow. We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us.

themselves, or rather, their players.”The players are the ones breaking the rules, hit them where it hurts, in the pocket, unfair for the fans or workers to be punished because of some twerps“Unfair for the fans or workers to be punished because of some twerps.”This not the player's stupidity but arrogance and with no consideration to his fellow players not to mention family,friends and all he has been in contact with.What does he think we have all been following these past months?She added: “With no consideration to his fellow players, not to mention family, friends and all he has been in contact with.“What does he think we have all been following these past months?”Red card: Football season at risk after Celtic violationBonnie Boyle, 26, ran to the aid of an elderly man who collapsed after suffering a cardiac arrest.Bonnie Boyle, 26, recently moved to Glasgow from Belfast and was driving around to familiarise herself with the city before her first shift at Glasgow Royal Infirmary.However, when she stopped at a shopping centre to get her bearings after getting lost, an elderly man collapsed nearby after suffering a cardiac arrest.Ms Boyle rushed over and began performing CPR – the first time the junior medic had ever carried it out on a real patient.The man, believed to be in his late 70s/early 80s, had turned blue by the time Ms Boyle reached him, but her fast actions saved his life.She said she didn’t know if it was luck or divine intervention – but hoped it was a good omen for her future career.Ms Boyle said: “He had gone blue and there were kids around that were quite upset.“It did take me a couple of seconds before I realised ‘oh yeah, I’m a doctor now’, so I went over and was just assessing the situation.“There were two security guards there and another guy, so we called an ambulance and checked where the nearest defibrillator was.“There were three of us recycling chest compressions.“I’ve never given CPR in real life, just on the dummies they give us.“Then he started to come around and we continued with the CPR until the paramedics came and they took him away on a gurney.“I don’t know how he is, but we have always been told that nine out of ten cardiac arrests die.“Even in hospital you rarely ever get one that can be brought back so he was very lucky.“I don’t know if it was luck or some sort of divine intervention.”The man regained consciousness and was taken to hospital for treatment from The Lochs Shopping Centre in Easterhouse, and is said to be recovering well.Ms Boyle, who had been feeling nervous about her first shift at the hospital last Wednesday, added: “I hope it is a good omen.“When I was going into it I was thinking this is going to be a really bad start to the day if it doesn’t go well.“I was feeling quite nervous that morning about the first shift and being the only person in charge of people, but when something like that happens the rest of the day can only get better.”The Scottish Government is urged to revisit decision to withhold the vast majority of information related to the Judicial review.The Committee on the Scottish Government Handling of Harassment Complaints was given documents last week but parts were redacted on the grounds they concerned legal advice and were therefore legally privileged.Committee convener Linda Fabiani said detailed descriptions of the documents being withheld are needed as a matter of urgency.The evidence seen by the committee describes the process leading up to the £512,250 payout former first minister Mr Salmond after his successful legal challenge against the Scottish Government.In a letter to Permanent Secretary Leslie Evans, Ms Fabiani said the committee is particularly concerned by “the limited information the Scottish Government has offered to justify the grounds for applying legal professional privilege”.The convener said she wanted to express her colleagues’ “frustration and disappointment at the very limited amount of information the Scottish Government has chosen to disclose to the committee in relation to the judicial review”.She said: “Amongst other elements where the public has the right to expect the Scottish Government to be willing to be scrutinised, is the judicial review which cost the public purse in excess of £500,000.“The committee insists that you revisit your decision to withhold the vast majority of information related to the judicial review, with a view to markedly increasing how much you share given the need to act in the public interest.”Ms Fabiani added: “Therefore the committee expects, as a matter of absolute urgency, a detailed description of the forms of the documents being withheld and the specific grounds for doing so.”She said the Scottish Government could choose to waive its right to legal privilege over the advice it received.The Holyrood committee is due to meet on Tuesday August 18 to determine the next steps it will take.Ms Fabiani said it will “not hesitate to explore all options available to it to receive the documents it requires”.Former SNP leader Mr Salmond took the Scottish Government to court over the way it dealt with the allegations, and the Court of Session ruled in January 2019 its actions had been “unlawful”In March this year, he was cleared of 13 sexual offences by a jury following a trial at the High Court in Edinburgh.The education secretary will outline the government's next steps at the Scottish Parliament on Tuesday.Sturgeon 'sorry' after fierce criticism over exam resultsThe education secretary, who has faced calls to resign, will outline the government’s next steps in the Scottish Parliament on Tuesday.With no exams this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) applied a methodology whereby marks estimated by teachers were downgraded based on criteria including the historic performance of the school.This criteria saw Higher pass rates for pupils in the most deprived areas reduced by 15.2%, in comparison with 6.9% for pupils from the most affluent backgrounds.On Monday, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon backed her deputy as she apologised to pupils affected by the decision.Both initially defended the system, stressing that the appeals process would allow eligible pupils to challenge their results and arguing that it would not have been “credible” if teachers’ estimates were not downgraded.But following protests from pupils in Glasgow and cross-party criticism of the system, the First Minister said Swinney would “rectify” the situation.She said: “We will be taking steps to ensure that every young person gets a grade that recognises the work they have done.“Our concern – which was to make sure that the grades young people got were as valid as those they would have got in any other year – perhaps led us to think too much about the overall system and not enough about the individual pupil.”She added: “Despite our best intentions, I do acknowledge we did not get this right and I’m sorry for that.“The most immediate challenge is to resolve the grades awarded to pupils this year.”The moderation process has been widely criticised by opposition parties.Scottish secretary Alister Jack described it as “disgraceful” and called the system as a “postcode lottery”The Conservative MP said Swinney had shown “a lack of judgement”.Scottish Labour are set to mount a no-confidence vote against Swinney in Holyrood with the Conservatives saying they will support it.Presiding officer Ken McIntosh explained that the motion would have to be debated if it is backed by 25 or more MSPs, but it would be an “expression of parliament’s opinion” and not legally binding.Scottish Labour and the Scottish Tories have a combined 54 MSPs.The Scottish Liberal Democrats and Scottish Greens are yet to state whether they will support the motion.The motion was tabled on Monday morning, meaning a debate is not likely to take place before Wednesday as MSPs are normally given two days’ notice ahead of a no-confidence vote.Sturgeon 'sorry' after fierce criticism over exam resultsMichael Dineen was inspired to create the Forth Bridge from Lego after seeing it every day at work.The 42-year-old civil engineer from Clarkston, Glasgow says he thought it would be an interesting challenge to recreate the iconic Scottish structure using thousands of modelling bricks.“When I first saw it, I thought it would be an interesting challenge to design it and build it to a reasonable scale,” he explains.After discovering that the bridge hadn’t been made into an official Lego set before, Michael spent some time researching his idea.He discovered that if he managed to crack the design, he could pitch it to Lego and it could become an official set distributed by the company.
A further group of 2050 destitute EEA migrants in Scotland are also at severe risk of destitution.Chief executive of the Scottish Refugee Council (SRC), Sabir Zazai, said: “People in the asylum system are forced into destitution due to the No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) policy, a deliberate decision by the Home Office.“Today’s route map provides a clear solution to prevent destitution.
