I would like to see the reinstatement of Manston airport because:

  1. It would provide many needed jobs
  2. It would raise awareness of and improve tourism and inward investment into a deprived area.
  3. It would provide some relief to the other airports supporting London and the south east as both a cargo and passenger airport and as a diversion option.
  4. Improving transport links mean it would be a realistic alternative to Gatwick, Luton and Stanstead.
