All the council tax payers in the area are going to be worried about is, how we going to pay for this ?
Plus we've cut services saying they cant afford them. But have leased an airport.
Hope everything turns out OK for them.

Re: Doncaster Sheffield - it's all over - or is it?
In a way you can see where PEEL are coming from. Sell it then later on down the line find out Russian money was involved opens a real big can of worms. As for the compulsory purchase order. Local council taxpayers are going to love that.
