This week, I wrote in The Mirror about the dire state of service accommodation. Nationally, two thirds of service homes need extensive refurbishment or rebuilding. Until 2022, it was considered acceptable to allocate homes that had known damp and mould.
Now that I’m a new member of the Defence Select Committee, my colleagues and I are pushing for some effective change. Our first report, released today, is damning about serious failure to address these issues under the previous government.
