anti-Heathrow rally in Barnes

Did anyone go to Boris's anti-Heathrow rally in Barnes the other day (week?)?

Who knows why it was held in Barnes, perhaps because it's the furthest point from Heathrow within Zac Goldsmith's constituency.

If Heathrow was on easterly operations, it would have been silent overhead, if Heathrow was on westerly operations, it would not have been very noisy (too far out).

On the other hand, had it been held in Cranford, close to the runway threshold, there would have been some noise on both easterly and westerly operations and Boris's point may have been made.

Unfortunately the rich vocal anti-Heathrow lobby would not be seen that close to the airport, unless boarding a plane of course.
