Sad times and a loss for the community, hope the government sees a way to keeping it alive.

At least Luppitt Harbour actually exists (sometimes). https://www.flickr.com/photos/rpw934/7523003988/in/photostream/

I first thought this was going to be about Welshpool International Airport (you can fly to England, see), which may be under threat following the utterly cretinous decision to move the mid-Wales air ambulance from there, to North Wales, to make sure it cannot possibly actually serve the people of mid-Wales (of whom I am one).  Apparently they say they can serve more patients by moving.  Well, you could also serve more patients by moving to Central London, or Bangkok, but that also wouldn't be much use to the people of very rural mid-Wales, with its poor road network.  Utter fuckwits...
