Freeport a Real Missed Opportunity
The news that the Clyde Green Freeport bid has been unsuccessful is bitterly disappointing to say the least. Despite this blow, I congratulate both successful bids, Forth and Cromarty Firth. Back in August, Edinburgh Airport were good enough to present their plans to me and there’s no doubt that it was a strong bid and I wish them well. I am particularly pleased for Cromarty Firth and the wider Highlands, this could be transformational for an area with so much potential. Howe
