So why did it take 5 Hours to remove the Protesters?

On December 8th, at 3AM about 50+ protesters from the Plane Stupid campaign www.planestupid.com gained access to Stansted Airport's one and only runway. However the airport and the police did not clear the Runway until 0800 and then did not re-open the Runway until 30 mins later.

Why did it take so long?

Well we are apparently not the only people wanting to know. the FR crew immediately took advantage of the situation and blamed BAA and demanded the Break up of BAA. All on the same day that (again) MOL decided to say he would leave when 3 conditions were met:

BAA was broken up
Irish Airports were reformed
Aer Lingus and Ryanair were one.

Dream on chaps!

Cheers
