I object to the Gatwick expansion plan because of the lack of consideration given to the impact on the surrounding villages, including the health and well-being of those communities, which will be disproportionately affected relative to the wider population that the airport serves and at a time when we should all be aiming to reduce air travel for environmental reasons. We accept that we live near an airport, but object to the proposed rapid and ill-considered expansion plans, which are also likely to have a negative impact on the value of our properties and our ability to continue living in them peacefully.
