I sometimes wonder if the airport CEO is a liability!

Absolutely woeful performance this morning re Heathrow finances.

£225m for shareholders , fair enough, I guess keeps them on board but with public finances being squeezed this won't go down well with certain MPs who can actually add up.

Especially when it's now been dislosed thst tax take is only 4%. £2 billion profit but only £54m to treasury.

Offering a fraction of the cost for infastructure whilst keeping shareholders sweet won't go down well with Labour MPs that have just been won over.

The dithering when pressed was an embarrassment.

It needs strong management to take Heathrow over the top.
