Likewise Grumpy my comment was that people are being naive if they think they are entitled too it! Remember there are usually 2 signatories to a contract and one in these circumstances doesn't have to give out that information as such 'commercial sensitivity' is an actual thing.
Would you be willing as a taxpayer to pay for the indiscretions of an elected figure or a public body.... no you wouldn't.
The airport is bound by commercial contracts. If you want companies to leave quickly and loose all confidence in Ben and the public body that runs the airport then go ahead publish those commercially sensitive contracts. You won't get any company doing business with the airport.
You can't have it both ways! Crying foul when you say hes damaged goods while advocating to make it even worse!
