LCY closure

The Green Party mayoral candidate, Sian Berry, was on "Sunday Politics London" yesterday. She came out with all the usual Green party platitudes and nonsense, but perhaps the most ridiculous comment was.....

.....that London City Airport would be closed and that all flights would be transferred to Heathrow.

She did not state, and regretably, she was not asked by how high much the rates precept would have to rise to pay for this.

Interestingly, the Green Party isn't suggesting the closure of Heathrow, but how on earth could Heathrow absorb all of London City's movements and pax?
