North Wiltshire MP James Gray has called the imminent break-up of North Wiltshire Leisure Ltd a scandal.

He said: "This is an absolute shambles. The whole history of the relationship between North Wiltshire District Council and North Wiltshire Leisure Ltd has been incompetent.

"It is shameful, incompetent and a shambles.

"Lots of children and their families will be deprived of their sport and exercise over the weekend not only in Wootton Bassett where I have been campaigning but in Chippenham and Corsham too.

"It is a disgrace. Surely they could have thought of this and headed it off at some point in the last three months.

"Somebody here has made a terrible miscalculation."
