Easterhouse

Of course, for sainthood, a miracle would be needed.

Father Riley and Father John Fitzgibbon ran a large parish in Glasgow's Easter House dedicated to John Ogilvie.

And their congregation included a docker called John Fagan, who in 1965 was diagnosed as having stomach cancer.

An operation removed part of his stomach, but from x-rays afterwards, doctors declared they had done all they could.

The Prime Minister has committed to visiting Glasgow's East End.

Andy Burnham made the pledge during the Prime Minister's Questions on October 27 after being invited by Glasgow North East MP Maureen Burke to return to Easterhouse.

The Prime Minister previously visited FARE Scotland in Easterhouse while serving as Mayor of Greater Manchester.

During a recent visit to Motherwell, he spoke publicly about the lasting impact of that visit, championing the Easter House principle, which puts people at the centre of policy by focusing on names, not numbers, to guide efforts to tackle youth unemployment.

In her question to the Prime Minister, Maureen Burke invited the Prime Minister to return to Easter House with Working Pension Secretary Pat McFadden.

She said, having lived my whole life in Easterhouse, one of Scotland's most deprived communities, I know the challenges our young people face, but also their enormous potential.

I was therefore encouraged to hear the Prime Minister commit to the Easterhouse principle, inspired by the work of Ian Montagu and charity FARE Scotland's approach of names, not numbers.

Will he accept my invitation to return to FARE with working Pension Secretary? to discuss making that principle a guide for supporting young people across Britain.

Speaker.

Having lived my whole life in Easterhouse, one of Scotland’s most de-deprived communities, I know the challenges our, our young people face, but also their enormous potential.

I was therefore encouraged to hear the Prime Minister commit to the Easterhouse Principle, inspired by the work of Ian Montague and charity Fair Scotland’s approach of names, no-not nun-numbers.

Will he accept my invitation to return to Fair with the Working Pensions Secretary to discuss making that principle a guide for supporting young people across Britain?

Hear! Hear!

These days, you know, with computers and phones, kids aren't moving around so much, are they?

Raymond, this is slightly different from a recent episode when Bobby Williamson was in, and his book is called Out of Easter House.

Glasgow's toughest housing scheme, would it be fair to say? And he was talking about being there when Frankie Vaughan, the pop star, came up to lead a knife amnesty.

I don't think that happened in Hampshire.

yes mate November I think my couple of my teammates I think are in there oh no

way so 14th November Easterhouse I'm sure it is

probably

are mate they've got like 20 odd fights or something I think they're doing really the first event was mental mate it was really see for a first event it was like I would imagine these things can get, especially the first time you're putting on an event, it can be a bit like fucking the Wild West, but it was really well done.

So Burnham's in Motherwell talking about deindustrialization, talking about its proud manufacturing past.

And he's talking about learning about crime prevention by providing opportunity in Easterhouse and how he brought those lessons back to his mayorality in Manchester.

This feels very fresh to me compared to the last 16 years of British prime ministers, to be frank.

And I do think that this address was much better than that address.

Lackhall, two.

Easterhouse, one.

And Port Glasgow, two for that.

Two.

Craig Mark.

if they're having a tremendous season last season it's kind of falling apart a wee bit for them but I think that they're good enough that they'll stay up and we've got enough quality in their squad that they'll stay up so aye I think that great result for Craig Martin to pick up a bit

Yeah, Glasgow Uni beating Dorai 1-0, as expected, maybe they didn't expect it to be as tight, I fancy Glasgow Uni to take care of them fairly comfortably, same with Larkhall and Easterhouse, but Port Glasgow 2 for that too, Toby's just saying there, he said they was robbed yesterday, the ref was hopeless.

the port were robbed clearly

Did he stay in his running?

Ah, he was, he was at Lanark, then Easterhouse, then he moved to Blantyre.

Right.

Um, but, like, we, we...

I came up against him when he was at Easterhouse, and he knows how to set a team up, and he's not one of these managers who just try and play, play, play for the sake it.

Like, he's, he's got an identity, and he's got a sty- a style he's playing.

He, he's, he's good at it.
