THE Scottish Greens have called on the SNP-Green Scottish government to levy a “super-tax” on private jets.

The demand for a £1,000 per passenger levy on the more than 10,000 Scottish private flights, comes as carbon emissions in the sector have been rising in recent years.

…

dizzy: The article continues saying that the powers to impose such a tax are not devolved. Perhaps Scotland could refuse permission to land or divert them to the Faroe Islands instead? Permission to land please Edinburgh. Sorry, can’t do it, you’ll have to divert to Faroe, Norway or Scilly Isles or maintain a holding position for 16 hours ;)
