This popped up from nowhere, it seems. It’s not dated but still there, telling lies about Glasgow and no doubt still feeding these ghouls with a reputation for being able to deal with hard men.

The link to the IEP report gets you an error message.

It needs to be taken down.

The crime rate in Glasgow is currently 68 per 100 000 people.

Scotland’s crime rate average is 45.1 compared to England’s 96.4.

Glasgow is thus even more peaceful than England’s average.

30 cities in England, Wales and Northern Ireland have a higher crime rate than Glasgow.
