Depth of knowledge runways!
I have just heard a Labour MP with the wonderful name of Mary Honeyball ( I bet she isn't) comment of runway capacity at Heathrow.
Her contribution on the need for more capacity to India and China was that as London Heathrow is in the west of London and India is to the east we need to consider this very carefully!
This absolute lack of any intelligent debate by our representatives is the reason the UK will fall further and further behind the rest of Europe.
Maybe we should develop Newcastle airport as that is definitely in the east so must be closer to India!
