Well as per my previous post on the Heathrow thread...
"Everyone's a winner babe and thats OK"
Grayling unequivocal ...
"the taxpayer will not pay a penny"
Was asked twice and a firm rebuttal
M25 tunnel remodelling etc all paid for by Heathrow !
BUT there was then an assumption that fares would rise to pay for the work instead. That also drew a blank.
"Nope, fares not expected to rise either "
This is sensational news. I wish all investment was like this!
Given the airport Commission indicated it will cost billions for the additional surface work otherwise the whole area will come to a grinding halt, can anybody suggest.
WHO IS ACTUALLY PAYING ?
