Brother who lives in the area says they have abolished parking charges at
the main hospital. Which means you can never find a parking space.

The Welsh Government have mandated that all hospital parking should be free.

there was an item on the telly about one hospital which is in a (major) town
centre where everybody now park in the hospital to go shopping etc, so
genuine hospital visitors can no longer get a space

that's a nutty position to get into because of idealism
