I note that of late, there has been a considerable amount of correspondence concerning the cost of car parking and availability of spaces at our local hospitals.

One recent letter was bemoaning the fact that private companies running the car parks are maximising their profits at the expense of visitors to the hospital.

I wonder how many people who are unhappy with the parking situation actually voted for the Tories knowing full well of their privatisation agenda for the NHS — a case of 'chickens coming home to roost' perhaps?
