shepp 2,285 Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I actually live on the doorstep of Heathrow and I do think we had better have a new runway. The EU are looking like they want to make our lives difficult so we need to look to trading more further afield, say with common wealth countries and the US. London had pretty much filled up the inner M25 area, so what difference does it really make? The areas to be bulldozed are nothing special really, not that many English there anymore. I would hate to see us loose trade to the continent due to not enough room for flights at Heathrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They signed an agreement with the people at Heathrow, it involves turning Prestwick into a logistics hub in return for their votes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackbriar 8,568 Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Could they possibly know that it's a very divisive issue, and they're using their over-representation in parliament to make political capital ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
