There are all sorts of stories circulating about which fleets are going to be stood down, or is Waterside going to be turned into a hospital, etc etc but when pressed the "informed sources" often as not seem to turn out to be a mate on a Whatsapp Group.
As far as that rumour goes I have no doubt the LGW operation is going to be massively scaled down but I don't buy the "permanently" bit....
The fact so many rumours are running around is down to pretty much total radio silence form the top..
