"As paid for by Gatwick Airport. From one back garden into another's." Cheap shot Gordon. My reasons for supporting Gatwick are rational, although it is easy to take a poke because I live in Chiswick. My reasons are: - how many people are impacted by Gatwick compared to Heathrow? - even with an added runway air pollution at Gatwick will remain well below EU limits, whereas LHR already exceeds them - R3 will involve the displacement of 2 entire villages whereas Gatwick has the capacity - One of the busiest motorway intersections in Europe will be a road works for years - how is that good for the economy? - Heaven forbid, should a plane come down on the R3 flight path, how many people will die versus the Surrey countryside. I am not even particularly worried about the noise, because I do believe planes will get quieter. So please dont imply I am a NIMBY |
