Now that's what I call value for money...

WITH the cost of healthcare becoming more and more expensive, the body that governs our hospitals appears to have built a new wing for next to nothing!

Our disbelieving news editor opened an email this week, from an East and North Herts NHS Trust official, that read: "Mount Vernon Cancer Centre: official opening of £21 New Radiotherapy Wing."

Now unless trust chief executive Nick Carver managed to construct an entire medical wing out of cardboard and sticky-back plastic, I presume the odd zero or five were left out.
