Seriously? And they say Boris Johnson is mad! This is La La Land in extremis! What about all those container ships keeping England supplied with essential goods? They use minimally refined heavy oil and would likely produce more pollution in one trip from Hong Kong to Britain than all the Exec Jets flying into the UK would do in a year. One of the major by-products of burning jet fuel (essentially kerosene) is a chemical consisting of hydrogen and oxygen known as H2O ... water! How evil! And don't get me started on contrails, pleeeese!

Dihydrogen monoxide (hydroxylic acid) is one of the leading causes of death!

They don't recognize that that will cut off the source of jets promoted to corporal and sargent /s

Until then, all Labour Party loyalists are to remain on that island and never ever take a vacation again until ALL aircraft are electric. What?....? You think that Ryanair or BAW or EZY flights don't leave a carbon footprint either - hypocrites!!!

These men are completely crazy: every ban is a form of totalitarianism, I would never cast my vote for politicians like them. I thought communism was dead 30 years ago today, when Berlin's wall was torn apart, but when I read things like this I sadly understand I was wrong !!

Time to stock up on candles and make sure that bicycle is in good working order! Of course you probably won’t have a job to go to anymore so it really doesn’t matter.

These are the same people who lined up in a row and marched while beating drums to face the enemy: who promptly shot them from hidden positions.
In the mean time just give me another fill up of 100lLL.

PRIVATE jets, people. Read the story.
Nothing about banning commercial airliners.
And nothing about doing anything immediately.

Might as well shut down any and all airshows as well.

This stupidity has no end? Instead of looking at the bigger, serious issues, they just do mediatic ones, like the French say "pour appater le borgeois"...

Compromise to be, like politicians love to setup, as planned from the start is higher fees on corporate landings and takeoffs. Meanwhile they will accept donations from flight service companies to change their mind.

Does the aviation industry and it's regulators consider FedEx, UPS, and DHL private carriers?
Just for starters.

Corbin is the UK version of Bernie-boy while Johnson is their Frump. Putin is winning without using a single nuke or any weapon. :-(

Would your Alabama and LSU colleges be ones that pay millions to the coaches and give the students a live time of student debt to pay those millions, so you can watch a "game" that 6 grade school kids play? facts matter in my book, not your feelings!

Nothing new here the EU operates on there own with no idea if its good or bad but wait until there private jet or airline cant take them where they want to travel. This contrail deal is going to cause big problems. Pull the plug on airline travel will ruin peoples travel and also cause economic problems for there destinations.

Too bad the Liberals have taken over the UK. It's time some truthful scientific data on "climate change"; (formally global warming) surfaces in the mainstream media. Who are you afraid of guys...
