Awful airport

Clearly the National Monument on Calton Hill has been usurped as Edinburgh’s Disgrace. Without a doubt it is now Edinburgh Airport. Returning on Sunday afternoon I was met with huge queues and delays at passport control. These would have been bad enough on their own but were compounded by reaching the taxi rank, where there were scores of people waiting and not one single black cab or private hire vehicles in the ranks. Disgraceful, and what must tourists think of our city?
