What did they expect would happen when Infratil sold Manston to Ann Gloag for £1?
Stagecoach did not get to rule the world by paying any attention to upsetting local feelings.
All is not lost, I have submitted a bid for £2 and it is presently receiving due consideration.
I am counting on my experience at setting up Victoria Park International, seen here with a low cost airline flight coming in to land, to swing the bid.
