Oh well here we go
Look, these sort of things are always brought up by the unelectable BEFORE they get anywhere near 'power'.
Doesn't anyone remember the fiasco of Neil Kinnock saying that Labour would abolish Nuclear weapons! That bit of
PR had the desired effect ie: getting people talking about Neil Kinnock!
Cameron is in the same situation as Kinnock was, although no-one particularly likes/trusts/or even wants the present incumbent there is as yet no credible alternative and the Tories are running around trying to garner support from fringe interests, just as the Labour party did during their 'wilderness' years so Cameron is making himself available to the regular groups of greens, gays, hug a hoodie, anti-war etc etc in a desperate attempt to extricate and entrenched opponent.
However, as always the realities of Government, the pressure exerted by the 'professionals' (Civil service) and 'the enemy' (Europe) means that generally speaking nothing too extreme ever actually happens, also, especially these days, if anyone truly believes that the British Government of any colour can reduce the global expansion of air travel they are asleep at the wheel!
So, for my two pennyworth, as always, dont believe what the papers say, dont believe prospective Governments 'wish lists' and definitely dont believe elected Governments 'plans for the next 10 years'
Ultimately cash is king and while there are paying customers there will be services to satisfy them!
