No one really needs beer but it would be shitty without it!

They are both nothing by comparison to LAX or JFK.. bonkers places!! Folk will moan all they like but it will happen oneday!

We are taxed more on beer than we are air travel! My point being that its literally the white elephant in the sky, in our industry we are forced to be ripping out adequate heating systems to install electrification when its not the best choice for the user, pushing electric cars and engine tech that other countries dont need to, and buggering ourselves/country silly over it in the process, yet air travel gets cheaper fuel for leisure than anyone else. Roads are hardly fit to drive on - why do we need MORE air travel and another runway? Air miles should be rationed, and if you don 't use your ration due to choice or cost then you get to sell your share

I can’t stand manchester airport - much prefer to fly from Liverpool wherever possible.

Don’t mind it now most of the work is complete, I think they have fixed the pickup area in T2 now.. because that was a bloody mess of a design! I do always try Liverpool but the flight times never work for us.

BBC world service is worth a listen to even if you don't trust the mainstream, a bastion of journalistic independence
