‘Boris Island’ airport


The Sunday Times updates us on the Island in the Sea idea. I back Boris all the way on this and hope it gets done not matter what the scale of objection is from vested interests. I am extremely happy at the idea that Heathrow be phased out once this airport island is built. There is no doubt that aircraft noise pollution blights the lives of all those who live in the west of London. That is millions of people. There are also massive infrstructure problems at Heathrow and the cost of any expansion economically, environmentally and socially is far too great.

That is why the airport in sea, the Thames estuary, would be brilliant. It would allow brand new infrastructure to take the strain. Also the noise pollution issue would virtually disappear. THIS website has lots of infoont he possibilities.

Come on lets build it!
