Glasgow Prestwick is a large international airport, and yet for years Westminster has used the British Airports Authority to meddle in its affairs and stop it growing into a major direct route to and from North America in particular, even though its an hour closer!

The BAA must be excluded from any interference in the buyout of Prestwick, now owned by omniport to allow its natural growth into THE major stop after the Atlantic. If thats bad for Heathrow, too bad.
