"Amazeballs"

is that the term UK "youth" to describe something jawdropping ?

well kop for this one people of Mancunia, this one gets an Oscar !

The MEN went out to get the views of "local" business re Heathrow expansion.

In terms of incompetence this really does take some beating !

Who could they have asked ;

Manchester Airport - Charlie Cornish has been super critical re cost of LHR
Maybe Lawrence Jones, powerful Mancunian Business leaders/opinion makers who push the MAN agenda !
Maybe somebody from within the Northernpowerhouse how about Jim ONeill ?

What this utter imbecilic reporter from the MEN has come back with, is an interview with a complete and utter nobody in terms of Manchester representation and one whose bias is 100% London Centric.

And why not.

This mob will be heavily involved with various partners building the bloody runway !

I'll bet the guy could not believe his luck !

This is nothing more than a propaganda exercise for Heathrow in OUR regional paper !

OK its one thing giving a begrudging nod to LHR expansion absolutely no issue there ....

but hang on its quite another to applaud and start putting the bloody bunting up around Olympic House by way of celebration.

Given that the MEN "appear" to get the inside track on all news stories ex Man Airport to the detriment (in my view) of every other news agency I would have thought this would go down like a Led Zeppelin at Olympic House.

Charlie Cornish must be burying his head in his hands with exasperation !

Why did Lucy Roue (that's Lucy Roue if anybody wants her email ) not go one better and do a one to one with LHR CEO John Holland-Kaye and splash that across the front page !

What was the quote from Capt Mainwaring...
