News today of cutbacks at Lydd Airport on Romney Marsh, Kent currently wanting to expand...

Please watch both Meridian ITV and BBC South east TV news tonight (if in this region)

They have run a story since mid-day saying that LAA have announced 25 job cuts because, they say, of delays in processing their expansion plans.. and a lack of support from regional authrities... mmm hmmm.. getting cold feet are they ?
after a newpaper poll resoundingly came out against 78% NO and two local town referenda emerged 2 to 1 NO just two weeks ago.

So, during an election that's "Oh look, we've had to cut jobs, cos of the delays" a bit of arm twisting for after election there perhaps ??

meanwhile, I hope someone is booking a field and marque for the victory celebrations....
