No-one believes industry
Today's "Times" carries a report on a poll of the Great British Public on infrastructure for the CBI
1. more than 2/3 think development projects should be delayed until local views are heard properly & extensively
2. 50% think there is no need for ANY improvements to national transport, energy, water & comms infrastructure
3. They do not believe any "lights will go out arguments" on any issues
4 Most believe promoters of new infrastucture projects are not objective and ministers are not to be trusted
5. Half thought all infrastructure decisions should be decided by local communities
No exactly a great base to start arguing for any new runways anywhere at all TBH...............................
