All those doubters who said Peel just wanted the land, only for them to let the lot go for a fraction of its true value at the first time of asking

It truly is a day of giving the people what they want!!

In fact, as noted previously, the Mayor is on record as saying if all else fails he will build all over the airport and no-one batted an eye - why is it perfectly ok for him to do it but not Peel?! Same as he stops public money going to TUI via Peel for a base and then the next day sets up a public money airline incentive fund with no-one questioning why it hasn't yielded results?! Madness.
