Page Thompson told the FT:
This is what I want Mr Thompson to say at every possible opportunity
Might be worth noting that in that FT article Page Thompson said Comcast hoped to take a decision on whether to proceed with the project “by the end of the year”. Obviously June is ‘by the end of the year’, but so is December. If I remember correctly the only reference we’ve had to a June decision is a report made to one of the Parish councils by a council officer. Presumably this was mentioned to that officer by Universal themselves, but I don’t think there has been a definitive statement direct from Universal that the decision would be taken in June?
Talking for the first time in detail about the plans, Thompson said the company had long viewed Europe as an opportunity to build “one of the greatest theme parks in the world”, adding: “After searching for many years, we think we have found the right site in Bedford.”
