I support the noble Lord, Lord Rosser, because he has approached the issue from the other end. Many airports cannot stand these charges— Ryanair has just given notice that it is leaving Manchester—and they and the people who use them operate on very narrow margins; there is not a thick crust that people can take a slice of without killing the business. I urge the Minister, in spite of his words to me, to take this matter away, give it a radical review and try to bring out something more sensible.
