    Sounds sensible of the last Government to reserve military land for training soldiers when there’s a war on.

    Almost like that’s the MoD’s primary job or something.

    Huh…

  2. This sounds like a Brass Eye headline. Cut to a family sat in a field somewhere saying how they couldn’t believe it, they moved in six months ago but just found out the house was never even there. 

  3. One site at MoD Stafford was released to Homes England but remains undeveloped.
