Ross Kemp, 2012 yılında Glasgow'da çektiği belgesel, şehrin ekstrem yoksulluk ve sosyal yardım sistemiyle mücadele ettiğini vurguluyor. Ancak belgesel, Glasgow'u 'üçüncü dünya savaş bölgesi' olarak tanımlayan bir yaklaşımla eleştirildi.
Visiting Glasgow in 2012, Ross Kemp filmed a documentary detailing the struggles in the city with extreme poverty and the welfare system - which was soon criticised for a ‘ridiculous’ framing of Glasgow as a ‘third world warzone’.
He goes on to compare Glasgow with cities in Pakistan, Mexico, and Kenya which are plagued by organised drug gangs, religious terrorism and people trafficking. With a dull grey filter across the clips featured, Kemp talks to the homeless community, people suffering from addictions, sex workers, and the charity workers attempting to help them.
Stuart Patrick, chief executive of Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, was the leading voice of backlash against the documentary. He said at the time: “These comparisons are clearly ridiculous. It’s lazy journalism of the worst kind, is based entirely on outmoded stereotypes and sends out a dangerous message.
More Glasgow nostalgia stories “Nobody is denying that the city has had its share of problems, what this programme seems determined to ignore, however, is that for more than a decade we’ve been fighting back - and winning.”
