And please don’t condescend us by claiming the WRC and indeed Shannon airport are parochial, self centred concerns. The loss of the Heathrow slots at Shannon will have been a major blow to the the competitiveness of the entire Western region, evidenced by the srong opposition to the plan from the CEOs of major international corporations, not just councillors, TDs and priests. .

I laugh at this. Shannon lost its Heathrow slots because it gave Ryanair a sweetheart deal to compete on the London route and then Aer Lingus began to consider its options. It’s the management’s own fault and the ceos etc should have been complaining to them rather than believing that a listed company should serve their interests.
