Glasgow campaigner's petition calling for action on youth violence going to parliament

A petition calling for action to be taken to address the amount of 'disturbing' youth violence in Glasgow will go before Parliament.

Alex O'Kane, founder of the No1seems2care community group, set up the petition due to the number of incidents of youth violence unfolding across the city. He called for more to be done to prevent the violence and also to hold the perpetrators accountable for their behaviour.

The community activist said more police resources must be made available to keep kids and the public safe following a string of incidents - some of which have been filmed and circulated on social media.
