I do hope any Chinese airline makes APD a deal-breaker. That'll test his
resolve
I fully agree. Will he be willing to 'put his money where his mouth is', or, will it all just be hot air as usual.
Its going to be interesting to see how much he genuinely 'supports' an new air link. Lets not forget he was a champion for milking the airport for compensation for the residents of Mobberly etc.
