[QUOTE]An MoD spokesman said: “This chapel is an integral part of our national heritage and the minister for defence personnel, welfare and veterans, Anna Soubry, is already working to find a replacement source of funding. “In order to ensure that the defence budget is spent in the most appropriate way, the MoD will look to relinquish ownership of St George’s Chapel by March 2016. However, we remain committed to its preservation.”
So you've announced you wish to relinquish it, don't have a plan in place, but "remain committed"....
This is either a very stupid way to go about it, or dishonest. Seems to be the modus operandi these days.[/QUOT]
F3WMB: maybe the incompetent fools hoped to slip it out during the Christmas stand down hoping nobody would notice, unlucky for them they were rumbled. As it's a church maybe all the religious denominations could throw a few pounds in each to contribute to its upkeep.
Who supports St Clement Danes, the Cof E?
