They don't build for families or the poor.
Profiteering, debt, tax dodges are the game.
They expect govt contracts and land to boost business.
Councils can build cheaper, eliminate profiteering.

One person from the Government reversed the decision of the council. This can't be right. I agree; it needs to be taken down.

As a member of Stockbridge and Inverleith Community Council, I attended the site visit with the planning officer and an elected councilor for our ward during the planning application process. The community council objected to the proposal before it was rejected by the planning committee.
