Bob the builder's rep as estates and capital guru is based on the fact we rinsed the fucking awful Candy Brothers for something like £70m when we sold the absolutely knackered old Middlesex Hospital on Goodge Street in a blind auction and they spent a metric fuck ton of Icelandic bank cash at way over market rate for the site.
Personally he is really sound and politically left leaning despite being absolutely minted and living a Regents Park pad/DB7/Old Trafford box life.

This is scary shit, so short sighted and completely fails to answer the real problems within the NHS
Independent do a good piece on it, privatisation here we come!

I was expecting some kind of smoking gun on the Naylor report in the video but it was all a bit crap really. There were some things he clearly misunderstood (he seemed to be under the illusion that it would require £10bn of costs to sell the properties which wasn't what the document said at all) and some leaps of logic.
It's something that needs to be discussed sensibly, there is an argument that the sprawling estates of a lot of hospitals could be used much more efficiently and it is true that the expertise of the NHS isn't estate management (nor would we expect it to be) but a lot of the responses to it are just "Raaaaaa, privatisation" which doesn't really seem to match up to what's in the document where the suggestion that profits, plus public funding, will go back into the NHS.
I'd be more concerned about who is involved with the deals and seeing assets sold off cheaply with grand promises which are not fulfilled than this leading to privatisation of the NHS.
