    3. No way could they afford fees. They were proud I tried for the catholic priesthood & equally supportive when I returned to local school.

        It sells off unused and under-utilised land. What's wrong with that?

        Because they are being bribed, the only additional investment they will get is by selling - NHS needs money and so are selling

        https://fullfact.org/health/what-is-naylor-review/ … The facts are they are selling off land, including from beneath the hospital to private investors

        Once again, it is about selling unused land and using others more efficiently. Affordable homes for NHS staff then build on this landpic.twitter.com/6jrmnddhxg
