This appears to be an elegant solution to enable the south east to gain slot capacity, build the local economy and ensure London remains a connected part of the globe.

I don’t think increasing pollution is the right way to deal with the climate emergency. This is absolutely not where our priorities should be.

Additional airport capacity would be incompatible with net zero targets and would help increase carbon dioxide emissions.
