Open Letter to the Deputies of the States of Guernsey 6
Open letter to the Deputies of the States of Guernsey 6 July 2018 Dear Guernsey Deputies Review of Air Transport Licensing (P.2018/62) The proposed Review of Air Transport Licensing (P.2018/62, “the Review”) put forward for consideration in the States of Deliberation at its July 2018 meeting by the Committee for Economic Development (“the Committee”) represents a significant shift in the Guernsey air transport environment. Blue Islands has highlighted to the Committee, both in writing and in person, that there are huge risks associated with such an approach. Deputy Dudley-Owen is quoted in the Guernsey Press (22 June) as stating “it is hoped this approach will facilitate new route development”. It is of deep concern to Blue Islands that a fundamental change in policy on a subject of such great importance as connectivity should be based on hope alone. Blue Islands is grateful for the opportunity to discuss our concerns with the Committee, though this engagement has only confirmed that there has been no meaningful, quantifiable analysis of the proposed move and no scenario planning and “hope” appears to be the only basis. Having now exhausted all avenues available to us to prevent what would be, in Blue Islands’ view, a potentially disastrous change in policy, we now write to all deputies in the hope that our perspective may assist the States of Deliberation in their appraisal of the Review. The main aims of scheduled air services In addition to affording Aurigny enhanced protection on the London Gatwick route, the existing Air Transport Licencing Law 1995 Policy Statement (“Policy Statement”) of 2013 outlines 7 main aims in respect of Scheduled Air Services. -

CICRA Media Release 10 January 2014 CICRA Agrees to Aurigny And
CICRA media release 10 January 2014 CICRA agrees to Aurigny and Blue Islands codeshare between the islands CICRA (the Channel Islands Competition and Regulatory Authorities) has agreed to allow Aurigny and Blue Islands to codeshare on the Guernsey-Jersey route after the airlines applied for an exemption under the islands’ competition laws. Having taken into account responses to CICRA’s consultation on the issue, the competition authority has granted the exemption providing certain conditions are observed by the airlines. Under the codeshare agreement, which will run initially for two years, Aurigny will take a fixed block of seats on flights operated by Blue Islands between Guernsey and Jersey using the 46-seat ATR42 aircraft, with ground support at the airports in both islands for those flights provided by Aurigny. Aurigny will pay Blue Islands a fixed charge for the seats. CICRA chief executive, Andrew Riseley, said that the authority had ultimately concluded that the interests of customers would be best-served by allowing the airlines to codeshare. “In the absence of the codeshare agreement both airlines contended that competition on the Jersey-Guernsey would shortly disappear. On balance our judgement is that the best means of protecting customers is to ensure that competition on the route remains as vigorous as possible and the conditions we have set for agreeing this exemption should achieve this.” As well as stipulating that any changes to Aurigny’s obligation to take a fixed block of seats for each flight must be approved separately -

Guernsey Children and the Second World War

This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Guernsey Children and the Second World War by Kim Madsen BSN, University of British Columbia, 1986 Supervisory Committee Dr. Perry Biddiscombe, Department of History Supervisor Dr. Mariel Grant, Department of History Departmental Member iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. Perry Biddiscombe, Department of History Supervisor Dr. Mariel Grant, Department of History Departmental Member From June 1940 until May 1945, Guernsey children either lived under German occupation or were evacuated to England for the duration of the war. This thesis presents a small case study that uses oral testimony and resilience theory to describe Guernsey children’s experiences during World War Two. Its intent is to contribute towards the larger picture of British children’s experiences during this period. This thesis also aims to understand how the majority of those who were children on Guernsey during this time judged that, despite the obvious challenges related to wartime, their experiences had a net positive effect on their lives. Findings suggest that, consistent with resilience theory, children found the support they needed both internally using optimism, empathy, comparison, and the attitude of ‘getting on with it’ and externally from family, teachers, and the local people with whom they lived during evacuation or occupation. -
Guernesey, Une Île, Un Jardin
Communiqué de presse mars 2017 Mots clefs : Guenrsey, jardins, Herm Sercq, Aurigny Guernesey, une île, un jardin Le mois de mars est là et il sent bon le printemps. Alors avis aux amoureux de fleurs, plantes et de jardins presque secrets l’île de Guernesey est faite pour eux. Située à seulement 2 heures de bateau au départ de Saint-Malo, et 1h10 au départ de Diellette en Normandie, l’île est hors du temps et pourtant si proche. Victor Hugo et Pierre Auguste Renoir ne s’y’ sont pas trompés, en invitant leur contemporains à découvrir Guernesey et ses îles. En 1870 Victor Hugo écrivait « L’île est ravissante en ce moment. C’est comme une grosse fleur (…) Arrivez vite, le temps est superbe ». V. Hugo, Lettre à Charles et Alice Hugo, 22 mai 1870). Il faut dire qu’avec ses 440 variétés de fleurs et de plantes, l’île a de quoi séduire les amateurs de jardins.

In 1814 it remained largely French-speaking, though it had been politically British for 600 years. The island's only town, St Peter Port (which in 1814 accommodated over half the population) had during the previous century developed a thriving commercial sector with strong links to England, whose cultural influence it began to absorb. The rural hinterland was, by contrast, characterised by a traditional autarkic regime more redolent of pre industrial France. By 1914, the population had doubled, but St Peter Port's share had fallen to 43 percent.
