    Really sorry to hear about this. Jobs shouldn’t be at risk..however do we need so many airports in the UK when we need more land to build more houses as so many people need accommodation

    It's not profitable….

    Our local council handed over the reigns of our local airport (Plymouth) to a local property developer, and there was a hidden clause that if after 3 years they couldn't make the airport pay they could build houses on it. So the inevitable happened, despite previously being a profitable airport, the take over caused it to lose money and guess what the local developer (Sutton Harbour Group SHG) wants to do. There is so much corruption in councils and all forms of government.
    SHG asset stripped the airport by selling off the landing spots at the large destination airports, Plymouth being a feeder airport, and leave it with no connections. They basically killed it.
    The fight back has been massive and will continue.

    There is an airport in North Manchester called Barton airfield run by Peel Holdings. Very poorly run. But they also used to run Ringway airport…..badly….till Manchester corporation took over and mad it huge.
    Peel Holdings are cowboys. Charlatans and I'll bet Doncaster council have shares in there somewhere…..just saying…..

    If this so called government actually cared about the economy, they wouldn't have had such a hard Brexit. Still waiting for the sunlit uplands…

    It will only suffer if the elites let it happen, GREED is the order of the elitist and the little people who actually work for a living have to pay for it day after day, and the mainstream media is a classic doom mongering bunch, like they did with the big virus issues in the past few years, profit before people that is why the economy is in a mess because big businesses don't put the money back into their business and pay those workers a good living wage, instead it goes to off shore accounts and super yachts and aircraft and property abroad, just as many over paid MP'S are in the same category.

    In the grim dark future, only our betters will fly.

    Peel Airports did the same with Teesside. As soon as they took over it went down, with the intention of selling it for development. Our local MPs bought it and now it's steadily growing.

    it's not going to be saved, net zero demands less air flights, and by less air flights they mean us plebs, the more northern the better

NEW: Andy Burnham takes swipe at Brexit and Thatcher as he sets out vision for Britain

Published

on

By



Andy Burnham takes aim at Brexit, Thatcherism and Britain’s economic record as he sets out his vision for the country in his first speech as Prime Minister. Burnham pays tribute to Keir Starmer and outlines his plans to deliver economic growth, promising “fiscal responsibility” while arguing that Britain has taken “a series of wrong turns” since the 1980s. He says Brexit “compounded the damage” and pledges to build a pro-business, innovation-led economy across the UK.

Burnham also addresses some of the major issues facing Britain, including the small boats crisis, prison early release and the privatisation of water companies and utilities. Drawing on his experience as Mayor of Manchester, the Prime Minister explains how his time in local government has shaped his approach to leading the country. He concludes by promising that Britain can “believe again” and “bring back hope” as he sets out his ambitions for the future.

Opposition Leader Kemi Badenoch wastes no time in challenging the new Prime Minister, mocking Burnham’s first day in office and warning that being Prime Minister is “a very different job” from being Mayor of Manchester. Badenoch grills him over defence spending, the small boats crisis, tax rises and his criticism of Thatcherism, accusing Burnham of wanting to take Britain “back to the 1970s”.
