I wish to oppose the expansion of Gatwick Airport. Such expansion will thoroughly strain local transport infrastructure, result in both massively increased air and noise pollution for an great number of residents and over a large number of localities including many which are designated AONB as well as other nationally important ancient landscapes and properties. Those living within the areas affected will suffer a sharp deterioration in their quality of life as a result, without compensation. Furthermore, such proposals ride roughshod over the UK government’s aim to reach net zero carbon targets within the foreseeable future. The proposals will detrimentally impact not only those alive now but also our children and future generations.
