Parish Council Doris Jones showing her true colours about the airport and telling more lies, hope the new Mayor can take her aside and tell her to stick to more parish council stuff like dog mess. Note, no idea why the quote comes out like it does.
Cllr Doris Jones, Conservative ward member for Sadberge and Middleton St George, has been both a backer of the airport deal and a critic of the housing boom.

The veteran councillor said she didn't know anybody who'd bought a house in Middleton or Long Newton who hadn't considered they lived next to an airport.

Cllr Jones added: "I don't object to it to be honest. It's four minutes of a plane landing and taking off and then it's gone."

But training flights which used the airstrip for "touch-and-go" landings irked her more.

"If it's a trainee pilot, they shouldn't be doing it over the top of houses - that worries me more," said Cllr Jones.
