There was a whisper going round my neck of the woods a while ago that one local Councillor (non-Aviation minded) wanted to introduce landing fees to all aircraft at the two airstrips in the area.
He was firmly told by fellow Councillors in words that could not be misinterpreted or misunderstood in any possible way to
''Fuggeddabowdit!"
(I think the term actually used was something along the lines of STFU.
)
