GMB Union is happy to meet with the Prime Minister to discuss how she can save our members’ jobs
The Prime Minister must follow through on her vow to save Doncaster Sheffield Airport, GMB Union has said.
Speaking on BBC’s Look North programme last night, Liz Truss said ‘I do want to make sure that airport survives’.
The airport’s owners, the Peel Group, have announced they would be winding down operations from the week commencing 31 October, despite the offer of public cash to keep it open until a buyer is found.
GMB has described Peel’s decision as a ‘narrow minded failing of fat cat business owners’. [2]
Sarah Barnes, GMB Organiser, said:
"GMB welcomes Liz Truss' pledge to save Doncaster Sheffield Airport.
"We are happy to meet with the Prime Minister to discuss how she can save our members’ jobs
“Despite claims made on social media, the blame for this senseless closure is with Peel Group – and the PM has the power to stop this.
“She must keep her word.”
