Meanwhile, current tenants in council housing face broken lifts, delayed repairs, and crumbling conditions—despite being the very people the city claims to serve. It’s time for Holyrood to stop rearranging deck chairs and start delivering real, scalable solutions that match the scale of the crisis.
