I'm going to pretend that you didn't say that. Lord Sugar is a gentleman and a scholar
I think that, strictly speaking, he is neither of the above. But that doesn't mean he is any of the other things mentioned either.
Now about that airport. I'm kind of with Meadows in bemoaning the business of everything ending up in London, though I do see zomg's point about the economic impact. What worries me a bit is the likelihood that it ends up not only near London, but on the wrong side of London for nearly anywhere else to get to easily, unless and until Crossrail happens, and even then it is a hell of a journey from where I am.
But I think the argument could go the other way around. If there were a huge transit airport somewhere, then that's where the people needing outside investment would move to, unless you're telling me that all the investment bankers who would apparently up sticks and shift their operations to foreign parts at the drop of a hat would somehow not up sticks and move to, say, York if that's where the airport was and where the customers were?
Nice place York. Can't say it would be necessarily be made better by having an airport next door, but then you can't have everything can you?
It would still be a bastard for me to get to though, unless you shove it in somewhere equally nice like Cardiff or Taunton.
