Boris Johnson could slash air passenger taxes to boost travel industry and cut prices for tourists

BORIS Johnson today hinted at cuts to air passenger taxes in a bid to boost the travel industry and regional airports.

He added a waiver on APD for “some years" would “make a huge difference in us being able to get travel back up and running.” Before the pandemic regional carrier Fly-be went bust, with APD one of the reasons behind their demise. “There is a very real concern that if our smaller airports close at this time, they may never open again which will make the government's levelling up agenda even harder to deliver.

Is there ever any joined up thinking in these ideas...Go on holiday & lower the taxes to appease the airlines & bring in tourists who then have to quarantine for 14 days, tourists can’t go out to spend & citizens can’t work so no taxes...And this helps how 🤔🤷‍♀️...Stay home, safer

BorisJohnson Sir' is one of the finest gentlemen for UK. People of UK should understand his ideologies of Brexit. Rather then hating him. After Sir' David_Cameron he is the next good dude.

Problem is you are limited where you can go, there are very few places you can go without having to do a 14 day quarantine when you come back.

Yessss

He might as well screw the environment up too, he's made a mess of everything else.

Not a lot of point if you have to quarantine for two weeks when you get back.

Ok if you get paid for being in quarantine when you land back in the UK.

ABYalley UK 🇬🇧 calling 😀
