Mizter T remarked:
Stansted wants to re-brand as "The gateway to Europe - all other fliers
try Heathrow", then fine.


The man on the Clapham Omnibus would not regard Stansted as serving a
"very limited" range of destinations, nor would a court. The Roland
Perry interpretation of language thus doesn't stand up.


It's limited to *some* destinations, almost exclusively in *Europe*.
(And not necessarily daily)

There are many places *in* Europe and even more *outside* Europe which
make it a very long way from being a general purpose airport like
Heathrow or Gatwick, or even Birmingham and Manchester.
