Ryanair Chief Gets Is Spot On

[Barrs Court Red]

Not a bigfan of his, but the man certainly talks sense here.

Yesterday, when asked what message he had for campaigners who might not welcome news of more Ryanair flights from Bristol, Mr O'Leary said: "They badger us and bang on about how the end of the world is nigh because of global warming - but it's not.

"Aircraft account for less than two per cent of pollution.

"The biggest polluter is the Government. Taxing to the hilt of petrol and cars hasn't stopped people driving around in huge vehicles.

"Ryanair has reduced CO2 emissions by 50 per cent and noise pollution by 52 per cent. No other industry has a record like the airline industry when it comes to that.

"We're doing this despite tighter demands being put on us all the time - but it won't stop the Swampies of this world climbing up trees to protest about airlines and airports. They should all get a job and get a life."
