'Close airport' Tory invited to visit Derry

City of Derry Airport has rejected a call by former Foyle election candidate, David Harding, that the facility, which employs 214 and generates 15.7m a year for the economy, should be shut. Management have invited Mr. Harding, a Conservative councillor for Coleraine who lost his deposit when he ran on a doomed UCUNF ticket in the 2010 Westminster Election in Derry, to visit the airport.
