Gipton, East Leeds

TRANSCRIPT

I first met and wrote about Dave and Elisa Hynes in 2008, when I covered their story for the Big Issue in the North. Their ex-council house in East Leeds was down for demolition and they had just applied for a judicial review of the decision making process. When I returned again to record their story in audio, they were in negotiations over the outcome and things were progressing a snail’s pace.
