There is some entertaining dreaming in this thread. Especially those who have absolutely:
1. No understanding of the political system - especially one with fixed term parliaments, even more laughable is the idea of the Tories winning Corby in the forthcoming b/e.
2. No understanding of the planning system either. You cannot just dig up a revoked pp and reuse it, Tommy cooper style. Even more laughable is the idea that there will no further public enquiries and 1001 court cases to tie the planners up.
3. The enormous indriect subsidy from the taxpayer which the likes of BAA and the airlines are recieving, so no, it will not be wholly private money being used to build a new runway at Heathrow.
Airport crisis - by my count London has 7 airports. I hate to see what a slight problem is then.....
