Having served as a kent county Councillor in Thanet I recognise the vital need for quality jobs in this area, to aid our economy. Thanet needs cargo & possibly aircraft recycling and of course travel both business & leisure.

The knock on effect with catering and cleaning in demand. it just makes good sense to build on what is already there. What we don't need is more land banking and/or housing. People need work before they can buy homes. We may even get to keep the hospital (more work) to say nothing of school teaches doctors etc. Anyone who is opposed to aircraft , noise is not thinking straight if they buy a house on a flight path. After all Manston has been there for over 100 yrs.
