I think we should be providing air travel across the country, not just increasing planes in the south east and the whole country travelling to the south east. Better for people / environment to be able to travel to their own regional airport. The infrastructure isn’t there to support airport expansion eg roads / housing for workers / rail. We don’t need more jobs provided by the airport in south east. Planes are getting bigger and take offs are getting more efficient so we don’t need to be expanding the airport and having a negative impact on the the local environment with little need to do so. We need to protect and preserve the beauty villages and countryside of the south east for future generations.
