Infrastructure around Gatwick is inadequate and noise pollution is bad enough already. Having a house 6 miles from the airport makes another runway less than appealing.

Many reasons why this should not go ahead: 1. Gatwick is already the busiest airport with many short haul flights 2. The noise level from airplanes in the Outer Noise band is already unacceptable 3....

There should be no expansion of Gatwick (or any other) airport because it will increase the process of climate change, add to air pollution, noise pollution and road traffic.

The plans would effectively give Gatwick a new second runway, but Government policy is that any new runway in the South East should be at Heathrow. (Though we think that there shouldn't be any new...

We should not be expanding air travel in any way during a climate crisis. I fundamentally oppose expansion.

This expansion will go a long way towards meaning it is impossible for this country to reach its legally binding climate targets. We need to listen to the CCC and call a halt to all airport expansion.
