Realistically, it is probable that the estuary island airport plan will (not?) fly until Boris has won the election. Coincidentally, the "review" will report soon after that and will sensibly recommend LHR expansion on the grounds that is urgently required and can start as soon as the go-ahead is given.

Don't believe a word of it.

Firstly, expanding LHR will be a complete U-turn and make Cameron look a fool.
Secondly, expanding LHR is not a legacy project. Cameron will never get his name in lights simply for building a new runway. Its Silver-Boris or bust (or should that be Silver-Cameron?).
