Leeds Bradford - General Thread

[Aviador]

Can we be mindful how much GALBA are discussed in the public part of the forum. As I've said before, they get more than enough press coverage by our media friends without us giving them free coverage on here too. I'm happy for the discussion to roll but it needs to go to the private part of the forum.

I'm sure today's press coverage published on the same day as our new Wizz services start was no coincidence.

Oh boy, I enjoyed that!

A nice young lady from the Labour party in Leeds just knocked at my door to see if I was a supporter and was there anything I wished raise.

Oh yes, says I!!

10 minutes later, she left saying she would definitely feed back what she had heard and that :

a) I wouldn't vote for Sobel or any of the other 4 Labour MPs if they were the last MPs on the planet.after their objections to LBAs new terminal.

b). Sobel in particular ratted on the constituency he represents by opposing the new terminal and cosying up to GALBA and ER, and this after winning his position after extolling the virtues of LBA and proclaiming his support for future growth.

C) Whilst the Labour Councillor looks decent, she is seen on her leaflets cuddling up to Sobel and is therefore not an option. The young girl said this was to show solidarity. Well yes, but solidarity with the MPs who are opposing LBA means no votes from me. They should be brave enough to express support and, incidentally, comply with the Leeds Labour Councils policy, which is to support LBA and its development.

d) The Labour objectors shot themselves in the foot with the terminal as we now get another extension to an inadequate building with the same passenger growth - and no big forest to offset C02.

I think she got.the message. To be fair she listened , and understood, - something the MPs seem incapable of.

Anyway, it put a smile on my face, for the first time this week after losing my only sister on Tuesday.

Condolences Heather sorry to hear your sad news but I'm glad to hear you've managed to have your say with the Labour canvasser. I will be doing exactly the same if or when they knock on my door.

Dense fog in the valleys surrounding LBA earlier this morning with probably less the 75m visibility. There are sometimes when LBAs dizzy heights of 674ft does have benefits.
