I wonder how many pilots/navs/air trafficers and a whole swathe of mil personnel, whilst moving around the world, bought property next to a "home base" to get on the property ladder. Linton is not unique, there is a very large number of retired personnel here, and rental homes owned by currently serving personnel who just happen to be posted elsewhere.
Linton can hold but a small fraction of the current and expected loading, and Priti Patel has made it clear that hotel accommodation is too costly. She has her sights on other Defence Estate properties. Linton is the experiment where the end result has already been determined (it will go ahead no matter what) and if you live within 5 miles of a red edged road sign pointing towards your rural idyll, don't be overly surprised when you wake up to the same news we did.
Advantage you have, is you have been fore-warned.
By all means hide this away in Jet Blast, bury your heads in the sand if you want, but we won't be the last to be seriously affected.
