When RSPs proposal was given the go-ahead by the national government last year, despite its own Planning Inspectorate recommending a rejection, the Green party described it as a senseless act, which places the economic benefit of a small number of people ahead of the wellbeing of everybody else.

In interviews with dozens of people in Thanet for and against the airport, I heard allegations of cars being scratched and spat at, anonymous accounts hurling abuse online, boycotts of local shops and meetings having to take place in private living rooms rather than pubs or cafes for fear of sparking open confrontation.

Part of the reason is that, far from being a straightforward planning dispute, conflict over Manston has become inflected by many other dynamics such as housing, poverty, regional inequality and political disillusionment the same dynamics that Craig Mackinlay was tapping into when he described the governments transport decarbonisation strategy as an elite delusion.
