Heaven forbid the councils have to put some money into the airport! They have taken enough out of the airport over the years! The bulk of the debt is from money raised to pay the councils for Copenhagen’s 49% stake in the airport, they then let JP refinance the airport paying them another £80m and himself a few million, could have been more if the present management had not stepped in! This is on top of the dividends they have received over the years and still are receiving, not bad for an asset that was given to them by the government for nothing!
