Scottish Greens propose £1k 'super tax' on private jet passengers in Scotland

Civil Aviation Authority figures have shown more than 10,000 private jets came and went from Scottish airports last year

The Greens want to introduce a £1,000 per person "super tax" on all travellers in private jets landing in Scotland, saying their plans could raise £75 million for public transport and help tackle climate change.

Scottish Green climate spokesperson Mark Ruskell said the proposed levy would send a message that "private jets are not welcome in Scotland".
