We ask the people of Glasgow if they feel safe walking the streets alone at night

With an increase in calls to strut safe people generally feel less safe walking at night than they used too.

00:00I'm 70, so I'm not out and about at night very often, but I'm not a nervous person.

00:06I grew up in Glasgow, I feel fine walking around actually.

00:10I'm 77 almost, so me and my wife, my partner, we go out in the afternoon rather than at

00:17night in Glasgow. Now I used to go out every Friday, Saturday night, but now I go out in

00:21the afternoon for a few pints, watch a bit of live music and go home because the city's

00:25like Sodom and Gomorrah on a Friday, Saturday, well especially a Saturday night.

00:29In the city centre, it's a very, very bad place to be at night now, whereas before,

00:35years ago it was kind of okay. But I don't think it's lit up enough, like I don't think

00:39a lot of Gow Street's lit up enough and all the wee back streets are quite kind of like

00:44dull and there's somewhere where people can hide and things like that. And I just, I just

00:50think it's not a safe place anymore in the city centre. And obviously not just the city

00:54centre but where people stay too. We've got our concerns, but I'd like to see more policing.
