Elusive Edinburgh neighbour leaves fuming note in tenement for 'despicable coward'

An Edinburgh neighbour has hit out at behaviour in their tenement in a furious note that was stuck to a wall of the close.

In a rant that quickly escalated, the elusive individual had kicked off at previous signs posted by other residents being removed from the building in Gorgie.

Speaking to Edinburgh Live, one local resident said there are new signs up "all the time" from the neighbour, with the latest taking quite the dramatic turn.

Printed off on an entire sheet of A4 paper, the note was difficult to miss, with the rant reading:

"To this person/people who went behind the couple’s backs and took down the signs on the stairs?

"These signs were extremely polite, even friendly - and the fact is I believe this couple have a newly born baby - so not only is it ‘cowardly’ to go behind someone’ back and do the,,, but it verges on despicable, particularly considering the circumstances!"

Continuing on, the rant turned to current affairs, with the neighbour managing to relate his tenement problems to the ongoing crisis in the Ukraine.

We are fortunate to live in a ‘democracy’ which means respecting each others feelings.

The people of Ukraine are fighting for their very lives, for the very rights one of use unfortunately take for granted!

They risks their lives for one another, and for a better future for al!

"An example we could all live by?"
