Impact of noise pollution over the highly populated South East. Concern over environmental issues, including greenhouse gas, global warming, global travel. Airline fuel is no better for the environment - it's also not taxed. APD doesn't cover it. Increased flights = increased accident possibilities, there don't seem to be enough Air Traffic Controllers now. It's a fallacy that it will bring lots of jobs to the Gatwick area - it will bring more congestion on M23/M25.
