REOPEN PLYMOUTH AIRPORT

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to force Sutton Harbour group to hand over the land and reopen Plymouth Airport as it's needed massively. Not only will it bring in revenue for the city. It would make life easier for locals to travel around the country

We have had this ongoing now since 2011 and all that has come is threats of building houses on the land. Yet the council refuse the plans every time

Why it was rejected

It was about a matter for a local council or devolved government, not the UK Government or Parliament.
