I fear Michael Jefford may be too hasty in proposing that
the £10 billion tax subsidy to the aviation industry be axed. I believe instead the answer lies in making
that subsidy conditional on companies within that industry investing their
money into researching and building more fuel efficient or alternative powered
planes. With Airbus doubting it's future
in our country, we have every reason to give plane companies a reason to feel
driven and feel inspired. With the
President of the US seemingly uninterested in the potential of a green
industrial revolution, why should we not fill the gap?
