Sean Clerkin, campaign co-ordinator of the Scottish Tenants Association, said: “The closure of this homeless unit means that 40 homeless men could be turned out onto the streets of Glasgow or at best put into squalid hellhole hotels in the city centre all because of financial cuts to our most vulnerable citizens.
“It is clear that the large cuts to Homeless Services is severely damaging to homeless people in the city and must be reversed with more monies being given to deal with the growing housing and homeless emergency in Glasgow.”
