Glasgow’s super-hospital – We and our children, irrespective of ‘class’ or ‘wealth’ are all in the poorhouse now

By Anonymous

Those who instruct the architects and engineers were aware in 1910 when the sewage works were opened…next to a poorhouse with a hospital wing…who gave a f*** about segregated families in a poorhouse.

They were aware in the early 1980s when the sewage works were renewed/enlarged. Who gave a f*** about Govanites. They were aware in 2000 when GGHB ignored its own ‘consultation’ which basically said “Cowglen FFS!”

They were aware when Janis Hughes (Labour MSP) led a debate against the GGHB ‘consultation’ manipulations again describing the sewage problem as did John Young (Conservative), Dorothy-Grace Elder(oh please read her speech “You Couldn’t Make It Up, Could You?”) and Bill Aitken (Conservative) https://www.theyworkforyou.com/sp/?id=2001-01-17.307.0 

They were aware when Labour’s Malcolm Chisholm ignored the MSPs who protested when he signed it all off in 2002: https://www.theyworkforyou.com/sp/?id=2002-09-12.13633.0&s=%22Acute+Services+Review+%28Glasgow%29%22 

The SNP opposition led the debate and Nicola Sturgeon, Robert Brown (LibDem) and John Young (again!) all protested regarding the sewage works. Read the references – including the protests against the other hospital closures…who gave a f*** about anyone using the NHS.

The decision makers were well aware but went ahead anyway – there is a rumour (nothing more) that envelopes were dippped in Shieldhall Shit to provide brown colouration. Private medicine only treats profitable conditions – VAT free! We and our children, irrespective of ‘class’ or ‘wealth’ are all in the poorhouse now
