Here's an interesting twist from today's E'nin Stannit.

Nicola Sturgeon: Decision over third Heathrow runway will be decided by SNP vote

Nicola Sturgeon today blew the battle between Heathrow and Gatwick wide open by saying her 56 MPs at Westminster will vote for the airport that gives a better deal for Scots.

The SNP would decide which airport to back after hearing how each would answer Scottish demands for cheaper ticket prices and guaranteed connections with international flights.
