Summary
A seventy-three-year-old resident in Edinburghs Muirhouse neighborhood is stalling the demolition of his ten-story tower block, Inchmickery Court, which has been mostly empty since November 2023. The city council plans to replace it with a new block, but the man refuses to leave until he has proper alternative housing. His stand has drawn support from family and neighbors, who criticize the council for offering worse accommodations. The council maintains essential services and is working to resolve the situation through the sheriff court. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
