Community to gather in protest against eviction
Members of Scotland's tenants' union Living Rent out campaigning

ACTIVISTS will gather in West Lothian tomorrow to oppose the eviction of a local family, despite government advice that tenants should not be removed from their homes.

Tenants union Living Rent will join its members, MSPs and members of the local clergy to resist the removal of a mother and her disabled son, currently living under Scotland’s highest level of coronavirus restrictions. 

The tenant, Lorraine Robinson-Moseley, has been waiting for a suitable home for her son for months since their landlord decided to sell their current home.
