A couple of errors in Nav's post. All of the airport lies within the juristriction of Warwick District Council - the non airport side of Rowley Road is within Coventry as are the sites along Siskin Drive.
Neither Baginton or Stoneleigh are within James Plaskitts constituency they are both in the Kenilworth and Rugby constituency as is the airport. Its the village of Bubbenhall or rather a few vociferous people who live there he is playing up to. As he is also my MP a take comfort from the fact that as a labour MP with one of the smallest majorities in the country the chances of him remaining an MP in a few months time are slim.
Warwick District and Coventry might not have been the best of pals in the past but with Warwick District hoping to met its new housing target by building on the border of Coventry - not on the airport site -there will be favours needed from Coventry. Also significient in this world of politics is that Coventry Council has just left the West Midlands strategic group of councils to form closer links with the councils within Warwickshire.
