Homeless people have been shuttled out of Edinburgh, Scotland ahead of Taylor Swift<\/strong><\/a>‘s “Eras” tour stops … but a nonprofit fighting the injustice isn’t laying the blame at her feet.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Shelter Scotland Director Alison Watson <\/strong>tells TMZ … the country’s capital should be able to host such a major event without creating a huge impact on the city’s homeless population. Alison makes it clear though — the org has no beef with Taylor.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Instead, she says they’re pointing the finger at the “decades of underinvestment in social housing.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Here’s the deal … TS is set to arrive in Edinburgh next week — playing 3 nights at the Murrayfield Stadium as part of her international tour. The homeless community there, however — who would’ve previously been given tourist accommodations as housing — are now being sent out of the city to make way for the influx of people expected to show.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Of course, understandably, this has left Shelter Scotland very upset … as they hope this doesn’t set a precedent ahead of the city’s other big event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Alison had previously said… “A family going through the trauma of homelessness in Edinburgh should not have to move miles from their job, school, and community to find emergency accommodation.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

She added, “At a time when the City of Edinburgh Council has declared a housing emergency and the Scottish Housing Regulator says the city\u2019s homelessness services are experiencing systemic failure, we need a different response from the Scottish Government.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Still, we can’t say we’re surprised priority is being given to the tourists … as Swifties are spending money on housing, food and travel — reportedly giving a “Swift lift” to economies across the globe. Granted, it’s still pretty crappy to see that it’s happening at all.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

A complicated situation, no doubt … but in this instance, Taylor’s not taking any heat for it.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
