Fair Tax on Aviation Fuel

Time to stop unsustainable cheap flights?

Well, the UK government has repeated its wishes to see airports expanded, or new one's built. How long can this shortsightedness continue I ask? How long will we have to put up with congested skies over London and the South East? How long until aviation fuel is taxed fairly - like the fuel that goes in your train/bus/ferry/bicycle(food is fuel is taxable!)? How long will this unsustainable industry be subsidised by governments worldwide? Cheap flights? - They make me sick!
We all pay the price in the end, just because someone wants to be in the sun for a couple of weeks. Time to think local and act local - Time to organise resistance to this global menace.
Time for people to pay a fair price for their flights.
