Of greater policy significance is the expectation that financially challenged public services pay ‘market rates’ rent for NHS health centres and hospital premises owned by private companies, PFI and LIFT schemes across England. The NHS should not be treated as a business in the marketplace. The NHS should own its new and refurbished hospital facilities and community health centres paid for from public funding and delivering best value for public money.

'This story makes me incandescent with rage. The obscenity of us having to pay money for land that they stole many years ago...'
Jonathan in Amersham tells @mrjamesob that he is 'furious' about the Royal Family making millions in rent from the NHS, schools, and armed forces.
The net worth of the British royal family is estimated at £22billion, according to Forbes.
King Charles’ own wealth of over £2billion is independent of this.
The Crown Estate is valued at about £16billion.
Why don’t we give this cash to the NHS instead?
Put that on a bus!
Absolutely huge. Are you watching @UKLabour and @SteveReedMP?
You cannot ignore this and need to massively up your game.
Huge congratulations to @RiverActionUK and everybody who took part 👊🪧
Has anyone else noticed the deafening silence from the @BBCNews@SkyNews@itvnews@STVNews after Channel 4’s shocking Dispatches programme on the Royals creaming off £millions each year from our public services including our NHS, which is already on its knees?
While the rest of us will be hit with an immediate 40% charge for IHT on our house, pension etc above £325k, Dyson will only have to pay 20% over 10 years on his £550M of farmland clearly bought for tax avoidance purposes.
But he’s still bleating.
Greedy.
Never buy a Dyson.

Michael Gove and Matt Hancock have been interviewed by the National Crime Agency (UK's FBI) over the contract awarded to Michelle Mone.
Let's get them both Michelle Mone and her husband all locked up.
RT if you want to see them on trial.
Well, well, well.
Out of touch Tory multimillionaire, Jeremy Hunt, says the Liz Truss budget is "ancient history".
It's not ancient history for people impoverished by their mortgage payments trebling in price because of it.
@Jeremy_Hunt@Conservatives
Stupid, entitled pillock.
The taxpayer funded billionaire royal family is costing too much and giving way too little. Their media friends and royalists live big lives by lying and bullying for them. The RF is a heavy burden on the🇬🇧 indifferent to real life struggles. They are takers. #AbolishTheMonarchy
🚨BREAKING: Six water companies in England OVERCHARGED customers by up to £1.5 BILLION.
Companies UNDERREPORTED true scale of sewage pollution for 10 YEARS, which allowed them to set HIGHER BILLS.
Our water companies are not fit for purpose.
Real cost of Royal Family to taxpayers is £510m a year - nearly six times official £86m of state funding
It's so wrong to cut winter fuel allowances to pensioners while spending £510m on royals who have private wealth of £2 BILLION!

Guys Rishi Sunak may have paid for his own suits but he sure as shit didn’t pay… for his helicopter, swimming pool, gave his wife’s company a few £100m, gave his mates a few £B through covid contracts (he was chancellor), wrote of those £Bs, sent £700m to Rwanda upfront (like a dick). Do you want me to go on?
Lord Bamford owes £500,000,000 to HMRC he has retired from the House of Lords and fled.
He expects his debt just like Michelle Mone's £232,000,000 debt to be written off.
We must recover every penny.
Pensioners are taking action outside #LabourConference2024 while Unite Chair Andy Green and the Unite delegation try to force a debate on conference floor.
We say: Tax the wealthiest. Don't pickpocket pensioners!
Agree? Pls share 💥
Ed Balls, "You weren't very impressed by us having Kwasi Kwarteng on #GMB"
Carol Vorderman, "No... When I switched on and saw Kwasi Kwarteng.. Old Etonian.. He crashed the economy along with his mate Liz Truss.. I just thought, good grief"
Susanna Reid, "You obviously didn't tune into the program where Adil Ray took him to task"
Carol Vorderman, "I love Adil Ray"
Ed Balls, "It's not bad to hear what people say"
Carol Vorderman, "No, but I wish you had people like Tracy Brabin (Mayor of West Yorkshire) on.. I want to close the disconnect in some ways"
Hi @edballs it's always good to hear from people, but not those who crashed the economy, put thousands into poverty, shot up mortgages for millions and laughed during the Queen's funeral. Who you put on affects the narrative, there's no shortage of decent people. How about some Green or LibDem MPs instead of recycling Kwarteng 🤷♂️
Lord Eric Pickles at the Grenfell Inquiry "I have changed my schedule to fit this in, but I"m missing important lunches to do it."
He was head of fire safety when Grenfell burned, and he thinks he is too important to be bothered by an inquiry.
He should be before a judge.
