only ONE teeny wee new bit of concrete at LHR.

Only one more strip of concrete in totally the wrong location -

- with yet more noise and danger to London itself;
- at an airport that is still not linked to the rail system without passing through London;
- and has not a hope in hell of ever getting a TGV link, not even HS2;
- and was so unimportant they could not even be bothered to put Crossrail through it;
- an airport so welcoming I breath a sigh of relief every time I manage to miss it.


Another strip of concrete on a white elephant? Why?

Prediction for you skippy. The first crash of a 747 airborne eastbound out of LHR, and the place will be closed down inside 3 months.

Can you really centralize the connectivity and wealth of the S.E. on such an uncertain and unreliable prospect?
