Having already been refused this application is attempting to achieve a full second runway by the backdoor. Any benefits obtained by a greedy minority are far outweighed by the disadvantages for the majority. I wholly object to this application as a new second runway would: increase noise pollution (already significant and unacceptable) to unbearable levels over greater periods, increase significant environmental pollution at a time like never before we should be decreasing pollution and its effects on climate - does the recent misery caused by fires and floods mean nothing. Increased air traffic overhead our and all properties directly affected has a negative impact on our health and also on the value of our properties. the exponential increased amount of housing means the number of people directly affected is increased.
