The Welsh Liberal Democrat Shadow Transport Minister, Jenny Randerson has called on the Welsh Government to scrap its troubled North-South Air link.
Her call follows the news that the Government has suffered a further set back after no operators made suitable bids for the latest tender.
“It is astounding that even at the shockingly high level of public subsidy, Ieuan Wyn Jones is offering operators, not one has come forward with a suitable bid,” she said.
“We have always said this subsidy was unsustainable in environmental and public expense terms, this news shows it is unsustainable in operational terms as well.
“This is a service for the few not the many and it will be scandalous if the Labour-Plaid Government re-act to this by just upping the level of subsidy offered. Ieuan should scrap it for good before he wastes any more public money on a dead duck instead of spending it on sustainable transport for all.”
