I would guess that Heathrow is more convenient than Stansted for the majority of people in the UK. For everyone except those who live in Essex and East Anglia, Stansted is in the middle of nowhere, and difficult and expensive to get to.
There should be a complete stop to airport expansion in the UK. We need better airports, not bigger ones.
