LGW was brought into the equation because several local councils in the SouthEast who would have been affected by expansion at LHR, STN or Cliffe won a court battle to have it included.

The latest edition of the consultation document dropped through my letterbox this morning with the revised figures including LGW. When you look at the cost - benefit analysis for each option, 2 new runways at LGW (with or without other developement) shows the best economic benefit.
