VHF and UHF is now far too much in hard cash to ever be given over to
any CB or Amateur use - they're already stealing 70cms for taxis in
London...

27MHz is worth nothing - noone will have it.

The same £75 a year VHF PMR licence I hold in Ayrshire would cost me
£1500 a year if I was in Central London! That's just for 2 12.5kHz
channels, so you can see how much they'd lose.
