Gatwick’s plans make a mockery of the Government’s consultation process, which concluded Heathrow was the best option for new runway capacity. The facts have not changed.

This is an application for a new runway as Gatwick does not have two active runways that can be operated concurrently. Therefore it is not correct that it complies with policy. There will be an...
