Don't be surprised if politics actually do play apart here.

Ann Gloag's, brother Sir Brian Souter, has been a big supporter of the SNP financially . The BBC reported in August 2014 that Souter had donated £1 million to the campaign for independence. There are no reports of if and by how much he may have financed the SNP in the recent election.

The UK Government have recently shown their support for Manston and now Thanet District Council is Ukip run, who want it reopened.

I can see a CPO backed and underpinned financially by Riveroak resurfacing.
