Re-open Manston Airport to provide jobs for the area where housing is increasing and unemployment is high. To open up a quick route to Europe, a flight to Schipol can hen take you anywhere in the world, without the trip to London and expensive parking charges. People from London can travel to Manston easily and there is plenty of room to provide parking. The long runway as an emergency runway is essential in these times of terrorism. Flights to other UK airports will reduce motorway traffic. Freight provision is excellent already and can be expanded. It will not affect the environment too much as it used to be an airport.
