LSoE support for Heathrow.

I think Heathrow have really tapped up some people in their campaign. I can understand to a degree why a business might benefit from being well connected globally where time is important and they are moving people and goods around a lot. But a language school? You thrive on your reputation, if it is good enough people will travel to spend presumably some days, weeks or months studying with you. If they are travelling thousands of miles to join a course, then an extra hour by surface from MAN, with or without an en-route connection, is hardly going to sway their choice away from the Liverpool school. Is it? Connections to Liverpool via Heathrow would seem to have no clear advantage, it's still an indirect journey.
