At the risk of sounding harsh - do they have a choice? Is it perhaps some of those who bought under right to buy that are holding out for a better deal?

However, back to Norfolk Court and multis in general. I know some folk who used their Right to Buy discount (70% I believe) to buy what was already valued at quite a low price for cash. If their council decides to demolish their tower block and use compulsory purchase orders to force them out, their payment is likely to be no more than £20,000 - £30,000. A great deal more than they paid for the flat but nowhere near enough to buy somewhere else to live.
