Yes quite correct, I expect that that was one of their intentions.
Even without the source being cited it does seem quite probable, but as
BAA own the airports why should they not pay?
I'm a bit puzzled by your subject line.

Yes, it is.
Passengers pay directly. I'd have thought you'd view that as a GOOD thing?
Taxpayers pay indirectly, through lost revenue to the exchequer from
fewer flights and lower spending in the terminals...

You ready for this? I agree. Best thing we can do is just ignore 'em,
instead of pandering to 'em. And that includes your "animal rights"
fuckwit mates.

It is not the terrorist acitivity that has put me off flying, but the
security measures put in place, which are annoying because they have little
chance of stopping any but the most stupid terrorist. To avoid them, the
week before last, I drove, alone, to an appointment in the South of France,
instead of sharing an aircraft with a couple of hundred other people. So,
yes it has reduced my use of aircraft and increased my output of CO2 from
under 100g per passenger km to over 300g per passenger km.

Is that the sort of terrorist who inconveniences others by glueing
herself to a door at an airport?
