NEARLY a quarter of all hate crimes in Scotland involve alcohol, according to statistics obtained by a Glasgow equality charity.
Anti-bigotry Charity Nil by Mouth has teamed up with students at City of Glasgow College to launch a campaign encouraging drinkers to consider the possible consequences of their behaviour on a night out.The trio won Nil by Mouth’s latest Pitch Perfect Competition, which sees more than 100 marketing students compete to create a campaign which challenges people to act against hatred.
For sexual orientation hate crimes, the figure rises to 34.9 percent. For race hate crimes, alcohol was a factor in 24 percent of cases; for disability, the figure is 19.6 percent, and for transgender identity hate crimes, it is 7.6 percent. Euan Telfer said: “Everyone knows Glaswegians love a night out, so we aren’t wanting to lecture people about alcohol or be preachy, but we want to create an opportunity to talk to them as adults and ask them to consider the impact of alcohol on their behaviour or that of others around them.He added: “At the Union, we had a drink with people and listened to their experiences in a social setting and it can actually be an effective environment to reach people.
“We want this campaign to encourage people to consider their behaviour and to help ensure that everyone knows their rights and responsibilities.”
