Parking at Newbury (West Berkshire) Hospital

[BrianB]

I can't remember the last time that I went to our local hospital when the car parking machines were actually working.

Now if the revenue is going to a private operator, I'm not too worried. But if the revenue is going to fund hospital services then this is something which should be investigated.

Today all machines now have a special cover with a notice saying that they were out of order.

Anybody have any thoughts or inside information on this?

Be careful what we wish for!  Let's just pray that we don't end up like the Royal Berks.  Transport to and from there is truly discriminatory.  You are ok if you live in Reading and it's immediate environs, but heaven help you if you come from round here.  Car, public transport of taxi....talk about stealth tax, this is stealth NI contributions!
