A trip out for a couple of hours today, Monday 22nd June 2020, to North Weald & I was very fortunate to see Aero L-29 Delfin G-BYCT was being prepared for departure. She's gone to St.Athan for her annual ! It was great to hear Jet Noise at North Weald again :-) Gnat Display Team

FATE OF SCAMPTON - Pls RT! So, it's not good news, having talked to West Lindsey District Council this morning. They're expecting an announcement from the Home Office on Monday. They urge everyone to do what can, such as sign this petition: chng.it/Bbb2xbwH

Sign the petition here 👇 chng.it/vxmfZpXqfV

An Open Letter to Suella Braverman - signed by 40 historians and interested persons. SAVE SCAMPTON! Pls RT, people! Home Office Robert Jenrick Emma Squire and Claudia Kenyatta

SAVE SCAMPTON’s FUTURE! Can I urge people a second time to sign this petition? It’s important! change.org/p/stop-raf-sca…

Sacrilege! My piece on why the decision to turn Scampton, the home of the Dambusters, into an asylum seekers' detention centre is not only historical vandalism, but a disaster for the local economy that flies in the face of the Govt's levelling up agenda: dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

SCAMPTON - what the heck? So, there’s a brilliant plan in place that promises £300 million to the site, 1,000 jobs, safeguards Scampton’s heritage, converts the Officers’ Mess into a hotel and continues the airfield’s aviation story. Please RT. WW2 Pod: We Have Ways of Making You Talk Shout loud, folks!

This evening I had a very useful planning meeting with Scampton Parish Council, Lincolnshire County Councillor, West Lindsey District Councillor, and officials, to discuss our legal moves to stop the perverse decision by the Home Office to house illegal migrants at RAF Scampton.

Good news - Legal action being taken against the Govt about their plans for Scampton. The fight back begins!!@WeHaveWaysPod

Dr Beeching and why we should save RAF Scampton

RE: RAF Scampton Read this thread to see the danger of the Govt's arguments: they bypassing local planning for inhumane camps at mil bases on basis it's an "emergency" What's the emergency you ask? *Conservative failures at the Home Office* replies the Government lawyer...

On the immigration bill: The Home Sec claims to be going ahead with RAF Scampton because it will be "appropriate, sustainable, and cost effective". Nonsense: it'll cost *at least £18.2mn* more than status quo for a year which is all the law allows: 🧵

This is absolutely right in every detail. The Government are custodians of our culture - of our arts and our music and our institutions. They have a duty to protect and enhance them for future generations - not to treat them as collateral damage in a pathetic culture war.

West Lindsey District Council has now applied for judicial review of the proposal to house illegal migrants at Scampton. They have my full support. It is clear that the best future for Scampton and Lincolnshire is the £300 million regeneration deal we have spent years crafting.

The RAF is trying to remove the grave of Guy Gibson's dog from Scampton, but are content for the Home Office to house illegal migrants there, threatening our £300-million regeneration plan for the site.

A look back to this fantastic moment a week ago - the #RedArrows sharing the skies with a classic Folland Gnat jet to help launch the team’s 60th diamond season display calendar. 📸 Cpl Phil Dye
