If it were true they'd still be here holding out for near half a billion and the airport would be long gone.
Building houses costs money. I wonder if the
£4billion debt pile of a certain company which has been increasing for some time had anything to do with the quick sale of the airport to raise cash?
There was talk of a Hong Kong company putting money in, but dont think thats now happening. Might be a few shopping centres up for sale shortly.
I also heard that the airport staff had a rough time under the other company.
