I am a local resident and in my opinion reopening the airport will be a great asset to Ramsgate, with other airports in the uk at saturation point it makes sense to utilise Manston to alleviate pressure on other airports. Long term employment for local people will be great, much better than using Manston for housing, such a waste of a valuable asset. Ramsgate and surrounding towns cannot provide enough doctors, dentists, school placements and adequate health care for the local residents without bringing more people into the area. I strongly believe that reopening Manston will be best for us all, it will regenerate the area and give us a future to look forward to.
