satans budgie said:Service accommodation is not subsidised, its graded according to size, condition and location. MOD sold their housing stock many years ago to the highest bidder and as a very rough comparision rents are comparable with social housing rents for the area the accommodation is located. HMG subsidising rents heaven forbid!
I am sorry to disabuse your opinion. But service accommodation is very heavily subsidised. Servicemen pay for their accommodation, but the contractor extracts more money from the Defence budget as well
