Glasgow is blighted by "epidemic" levels of drug and alcohol abuse and has the same number of teenage gangs as London, according to a think tank.
The right-leaning Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) said the city's economic recovery had been hampered by appalling levels of social deprivation.
Its report predicted that half of all families in Glasgow would be headed by a lone parent eight years from now.
It is a sad state of events when a city is diagnosed with this kind of problem. The truly unfortunate thing is that in eight years 50% of families in Glasgow will only have one parent. That is the problem. The family is not strong in this Scottish town and that must change. If Glasgow wants the problem to be reversed then action needs to be taken immediately.
