Heathrow?s powerhouse argument for expansion | | The Times & The Sunday Times

Fortunately the rest of the article where Heathrow claims to be "our saviour" is behind a pay wall.....damn, damn, damn !

As a "Northern Taxpayer" I must confess I'm quite anxious nay euphoric that we have to provide them with some monumental amounts of cash, in order to generate the £710m ROI in the first place.

Let's say a minimum of £10bn ? for some nice roads, a tunnel, new railway lines rolling stock and why not a station or two !

"My goodness £710m now let's see "

....if a billion is 1000 million and our subsidy (oops investment) is a minimum of say £10billion, that will equate to taking 14 years to get our ROI back.

"hey hang on a minute "
