Now we've discovered that c£300M will be saved by not providing a link between the city of Glasgow and Edinburgh airport, much to the detriment of the city of Glasgow, one would presume and he finds cause to complain.
Characterising the loss of the Dalmeny chord as a poke in the eye for Glasgow sounds petty and, in my opinion as a Glaswegian, typifies the low level of debate between neighbouring cities.

This rail development was about much more than a few Weegies getting to Embra airport and its cancellation is a blow to the whole transport strategy for the Scottish central belt, an area with poor levels of car ownership.

As was said earlier - at least provide direct bus links into the airport
