Obvious that Yorkshire TV are mates with G***A. They just did a short item outlining the oroposed changes, quoting G***A (nobody else) then inviting the public to add their comments in the portal before the 15th. Without actually saying so, it was a clear invite to object. So much for media taking a neutral stance.

Report them for being biased - submit a standard broadcast standards complaint to Ofcom.

They are meaningless as only the objections are logged plus any 'own words' support. The vast majority of the support remains invisible to the public and apparently we wont know the true amount until the figures are included in the Planning Officer's report and recommendations.

Bradford Council’s response to the planning application has just been put on the portal. Broadly supportive with reservations regarding some of the statistics on aircraft movements and its impact on road traffic patterns with a suggestion LBA pay for the A1, A2 and A3 airport buses to become a 24 hour service.

Well that sounds very positive from Bradford council, a few minor amendments here and there but generally supportive of the amendments to night flying. With the weight of Bradford Council surely Leeds City Council must take note of this, mind you this is Leeds we are talking about so anything can happen.
