How Many is "Not Many"?

Jonathan Nicholson [CAA] is quoted as saying "you cannot just shut off airspace".....well when there is a commercial consideration such as Farnborough they have no problem.
I hope some-one will ask how many Air Transport Movements are needed to qualify for controlled airspace, it is truly a British outlook to insinuate that the cheeky airlines are operating into the wrong airports.....like the head-in-the-sand attitude on the Railways....wrong kind of snow/leaves/rain too wet etc. etc. ...always somebody elses fault !! Heaven forbid that people actually want to fly from a convenient airport at a fraction of the cost with no hassle!
