RAF Boulmer closure to be reviewed
BBC Look North tonight at 6.30pm. John Reid has written to Alan Beith (Lib Dem and local MP) to say that the closure of RAF Boulmer is now subject to review due to the excessive costs of moving existing ASACS units (School of Fighter Control and CRC).
So, closing a unit that has just been refurbished with state of the art equipment and moving it to a second world war station with limited infrastructure and under the thumb of English Heritage is expensive is it? Could have told them that two years ago before this shambles started.
Stand by for the mother of all fudges. No change on the decision to close but it will 'move right' and then 'move right' again. I really hope someones (2* or 3*) Gonads are roasting over an open fire this christmas.
