BANNED FROM MPS FACEBOOK GROUP BECAUSE I DEFENDED MYSELF

Our local conservative mp @NickFletcherMP who is my mp
has posted on facebook this morning
His views on me and the facebook group are quite interesting

see quote/copy here

---------------------------------

"10. The Save DSA page is run by an admin that has been seemingly captured by the local Labour politicians and will now be used to help their local election campaign.
11. I am prevented from commenting or posting on that group page so please visit mine for the facts and any rebuttal to their nonsense.

---------------------------------------

i replied back to defend myself with these comments he doesnt like my version
HE BANNED ME FROM HIS PAGE !!!

What's up Nick Fletcher MP what's with the comments about me and the Facebook group

It's an airport group
HERE TO SUPPORT GETTING THE AIRPORT OPEN

Your constant scrutiny and divisive comments will not help

Your dysfunctional relationship with our Authorities will not help

If anything it's embarrassing

I sincerely hope that non of the investors looking at Doncaster and our Airport don't run a mile

There is an opportunity here to get more funding for Doncaster towards our Airport

You say
your on it and doing everything you can

Yet you don't support getting more money for our city and airport

I would think it would be in your Constituents best interests to support this issue

As mentioned before I actually voted for you your my MP

I'm an independent person who runs a Facebook group to support getting our airport open
Yet you and your supporters seem to think its OK to constantly have a go at me

Take a look at yourself old lad please

I have asked you and Oliver Coppard to work together along with Doncaster Council to get our airport reopened Yet all we see is this crap from you

Why don't you want the City and region to have more funding ??
It would benefit your Constituents and that's why your here isn't it ???

✈️ #saveDSA – YOUR CHANCE TO QUESTION SOUTH YORKSHIRE MAYOR OLIVER COPPARD!

Another public meeting has been arranged to discuss the future of Doncaster Sheffield Airport, following the recent decision to proceed with purchasing the airport and associated development land.

Cleared for Take-Off – A Q&A on the Future of DSA

📅 Monday 9th November 2026

📍 Club Doncaster Sports Village

🕠 5.30pm – Arrival and refreshments

🕕 6.00pm – Meeting starts

Oliver Coppard will be taking questions directly from the public about the airport's reopening and what comes next.

We've come a long way in four years, but there are still plenty of questions about airlines, cargo, radar, reopening dates, jobs and the opportunities DSA will bring to our region.

This is your opportunity to ask those questions directly!

I'd encourage as many #saveDSA members as possible to attend. Whether you're a supporter, local resident, business owner or just interested in the airport's future, everyone is welcome.

We've fought for over four years to get our airport back. Let's keep showing our support and make sure our voices continue to be heard!

Happy Yorkshire Day Everybody

E-mail sent to all party leaders at Doncaster Council Ahead of the meeting tomorrow
Good afternoon everyone,

I felt it was important to write to you all before tomorrow morning’s EGM.

Over the last four years, I’ve reflected often on what we achieved together through #saveDSA during my time as an admin of the campaign.

Together, we secured around 130,000 signatures across the Change dot org petition, the GMB petition, and the Nick Fletcher petition.

Collectively across social media, more than 42,000 people followed, supported, and participated under the #saveDSA banner.

Before closure, the airport supported:

800 direct jobs

1,900 indirect jobs

Around £100 million added to the regional economy

That is despite claims from Peel that DSA itself made no money.

The decision tomorrow is another stepping stone, another hurdle in the ongoing fight to achieve our collective goal of reopening Doncaster Sheffield Airport.

Over the last four years, I have often returned to this quote because it perfectly reflects what has happened here in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, and the surrounding areas:

“There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.”

Margaret J. Wheatley

Margaret Wheatley, a leadership thinker and expert in organisational behaviour, reminds us that lasting change rarely comes from authority, pressure, or individual effort alone.

Real transformation begins when people recognise what truly matters to them and choose to move forward together with shared purpose, courage, and determination.

Real change begins when people care together.

Tomorrow’s meeting is an opportunity to recognise exactly that.

Doncaster Sheffield Airport means far more than a building or a runway. It represents opportunity, connectivity, investment, jobs, pride, and future growth for the whole region.

Yes, this project may not make a profit for many years, but the wider benefits of a reopened DSA, jobs, investment, opportunities, and increased business rates, would deliver long-term value to the region.

We only need to look at the steel and automotive industries, both of which have received significant financial backing from central government in recent years, to understand that some projects are worth supporting because of the broader economic and social benefits they bring.

So, to those with the power to influence decisions tomorrow:

Our Communities across South Yorkshire and beyond have already demonstrated how deeply they care about safeguarding this airport and everything it stands for.

This is a chance to listen to that collective voice and to help shape a future built on ambition, collaboration, and long-term regional benefit.

Strong leadership is not only about economic decisions.

It is also about listening to the public voice and recognising the strength of a united community and the future it believes in.
