Ryanair has taken out a full page ad. in the national press condemning Gordon
Brown for increasing air passenger duty and urging people to email Gordon
Brown to object to the increase in APD. Conveniently their chairman Michael
O'Leary provides the email address to write to:
ministers@hm-treasury.gsi.gov.uk.
DEF supports an initiative by 'Stop Stansted Expansion' and would encourage
you to send the precisely the opposite message to this same email address.
Please put the words "Aviation must pay its full environmental costs" in the
'Subject' box and email to say that Gordon Brown's recent increase in APD
did not go nearly far enough. Just a one-line to that effect would be
sufficient but you could add that aviation is the fastest growing source of
the emissions which cause climate change and ask why it continues to be
allowed duty free fuel and to be exempt from VAT.
