I guess what I am saying is that the airport services are here to stay. No major stakeholder in them or the airport has any desire to stop this being the case, and so the next thing that is needed is the proper investment that will allow both them & all the other services in the area to offer more capacity, more services & more efficiency. You can bemoan them all you like, blame them for all manner of ills, but those involved are not interested in what you might like to believe but in what solutions are needed to deliver the capacity needed, not what might be convenient for a bit. Or at least they should be!
But fundamentally the airport traffic is not and will not be anywhere near as large as the traffic to Manchester city centre. Therefore, the tail cannot be allowed to wag the dog. At present, it is being allowed to do so, and the effects are disastrous.
