I have read the manifesto's that are available for the South Mainland ward on the Shetland news website, and am certain that I wont be voting for the present incumbent, time for a change and some new faces, I wonder how much as the council's "transport spokesman" he truely knew about the SLAP investment in Scatsta?

I dont think you should be under the illusion sudden stop, that the public money wasnt the reason that the consortium stayed at Scatsta, as long as the the public aren't conned into thinking that loganair or whoever operate the contract for the scheduled service to Shetland are going to get a better deal than they do at present. It is good that there is a diversionary airport that can accomodate both services in shetland but a pity that once again the local purse strings have had to be loosend to pay for it again, When the principal users are more than able to afford to pay for any such improvements they should wish to make.
