Default Scotland Yard could be sold as part of £500m savings plan

Well, I thought I'd heard it all but I guess I have now.

Whatever next?....The crown jewels or have they already been sold off or melted down to pay for the palace heating bill?

The Metropolitan Police is planning to sell off its headquarters to help save £500m over the next two and half years.
New Scotland Yard in Victoria, central London, would be put up for sale under proposals designed to deliver savings and boost frontline policing.
Police stations across London would also be under threat, with five already approved for sale, as the force seeks to dispose of a third of its estate.
